Agreed he is definitely a moderate. When asked in that radio show/podcast who his role model politician was, he answered George Washington. When asked again if he had a modern role model in mind, he stated he did not know. He clearly is not a Republican of the Trump mold.
He worked for the State Department, which means he is probably a part of the deep state.

I know Richard from High School and ran into him a few times while he was at LSU. He is his own person and not overly influenced by others. He won't be bought off by anyone but he can come across as arrogant.
Proposing the elimination of state income tax is his key policy item, which is definitely NOT a democrat position. Richard is a moderate Republican. He understands that state income tax applies to BOTH personal income AND business income and changing that is necessary for Louisiana to be competitive in retaining/attracting high-quality workers and businesses.
I do believe he truly wants Louisiana to succeed and he is not afraid to take bold action to make it happen. Richard is incredibly smart and has a strong work-ethic.

So that’s a knock against him? What answer should have be given to prove he’s not “definitely a moderate”?

The fact that he is not sucking off Trump's knob is probably a good thing. Louisiana has Louisiana issues not federal issues.

But understand that his district is probably one of the richest in the state… that’s what plays well there

Gross. Guess he’ll get his 3% of the vote and try again in 2031
