Oh damn, I saw some ad he did and it made it seem like he was a veterinarian. Thought he was playing that angle.
And he’s also a pilot that flies himself to DC and back on his own plane and his net worth well over ten million iirc.
I’m undecided right now but your broadsides against Abraham just reek of South Louisiana favoritism.

If he’s worth that much, why did he renege on his pledge to give his salary to charity?

here is his response to that allegation:
THE TRUTH: False AND intentionally misleading. 1.) After his election to Congress, House Ethics ruled that Abraham could no longer receive private income as a part-time practicing physician. Despite this ruling, Ralph Abraham nonetheless DID donate his salary to charity in his first term of Congress. He and his wife have continued to give hundreds of thousands of dollars to charity each year. 2.) The article Rispone cites actually references an airplane that Ralph Abraham owned well before running for public office, purchased in 2013. Ralph Abraham sold that plane in 2017, and used said proceeds to purchase a plane virtually identical to the one he previously owned.

Also if he’s from Louisiana, why did he choose to serve in the Mississippi National Guard? And the unit being closer is a shite excuse

Jbe called out Abraham on having the worst attendance in Congress.
Abraham responded by saying, “I would like to see your attendance when running for governor”
Jbe, “I never missed a day”
Eddie said the same response every time. Jobs, I’m a business guy

JBE said “look it up. Look at my record. Never missed a day”
Abraham “I will! Er, I have!”
He was done at that point. JBE owned him.

JBE has earned my vote.....again.
Posted on 9/19/19 at 9:53 pm to coonasswhodat
Same. I can’t wait to vote for him.

Are you voting for JBe in part as a protest vote against trump?
I know some people who have voted for state level politicians due to national political
Reasons
To each their own, but I find it stupid.
Your vote for governor should be based on state issues.

Absolutely not. National politics have nothing to do with state/local elections in my mind. I think JBE is easily the best candidate.

It really tells you how bad a shape Jindal left the state when his stench is still lingering 4 years later
Bush’s stench was gone by 2010 when gop swept midterms
I do think JBE would be vulnerable in some gop wave year in a midterm

I’m going straight red ticket. The last tolerable Dem was Kennedy.
