I am not a fan, but dude just got blitzed with half a dozen gotcha questions designed to smear the Trump Administration. He didn't fall for any of them and was even keel. Good job, sir.

He also did a great job with this during the flood in 16. Seems like I remember him pretty gloriously and gracefully blasting a reporter for trying it

It’s a shame his economic policies and his political allies suck.

YEs, he did blame Trump!

""There was never any hint of this, and if you'll go back, you will see that the federal government was saying things were well under control. And so this is some Monday morning quarterbacking going on, and quite frankly, I believe it's likely that Mardi Gras contributed to the seeding of the virus in and around New Orleans."

Bad time for governors who need federal help to get into a pissing match with Trump.

Ironically both Edwards and Jindal drew the most praise because of their actions during crisis times. They bragged on Jindal too post Gustav. He was all over it.
ETA: Jindal was propped up by post Katrina/ Rita spending but was gutted by the collapse of oil. Edwards will get federal dollars now to prop him up, but will this collapse of oil take him down in the long run?

bullshite. Jindal was terrible in many ways, but he was stellar in a crisis. JBE has done a better than decent job, but he will quickly get back to his old ways as he calls the legislature back into a special session to bully them into more taxes and scuttles the tort reform that appeared to finally be ready to happen.

Jindal was a machine in a crisis. My mom didnt like his pressers because of the information overload and the speed he delivered it with.

I am a medium sized business owner, MAGA to the core, and I voted for JBE- even made a pretty significant campaign contribution.

When you know him- you know he has the best interest of this state at heart- politics are ugly. He’s not gonna please all of us- he can’t.

But the monkeys they had running against him would have been cronie to the core and done more harm than our conservative ideals could have offset.

He's done great for Louisiana. He kept us from falling further than 50th in many categories. His ability to manage the only state that didn't see economic growth after Trump's election was impressive. I especially liked the full year of negative job growth. Not many people could have done that.

Anyone with an IQ over 80 should be able to understand that. That's like being impressed that someone knows to get out of the street when a car is coming.
