Far from the dumbest. He was compromised to STFU about J6. Because the set up of J6 was accomplished with Rs and Ds.

“Dumbest person in congress”

Congratulations. Dumbest statement on the interwebs today. AOC is upset he got your nomination and not her.

The best challenger thus far was Josh Guillory. The rest have been more clueless and tone deaf,

His constituent services has been exceptional. His office guided through lots of permits, state and federal, for new world scale chemical plants and LNG terminals. This is how you get re-elected, not the yeehaw.

A friend, actually best friend of my sister, in Lake Chuck, worked in his district office as she did under Boustany, before retiring a 2nd time. The first time was an engineer with Exxon Mobil, where she was ops head of Mobil offshore in the Gulf, then Mobil's Venezuela field/upgrader development, and Kazakhstan, Finally as assist plant manager at the very large Beaumont refinery before early retirement. I was surprised to hear that he was badass getting things done behind the scenes after being elected.

He is not dumb at all. More was expected from him. He became a DC obstruction critter if he wanted to survive.

Piss off claiming Clay can barely read. Are you bigoted to his wonderful accent presuming stupid cajun?

Shame on you...

She praised his behind the scenes work. She is definitely smarter than 99.9% of those on TD. She also helped kneecap Landry in the runoff with Boustany with C Span video showing his getting the committee to insert language into USCG Reauth bill which would have killed a lot of existing offshore oil/gas production and made bank for the Bayou Lafourche workboat owners requiring 1960s technology.

Anyone else remember how Laffy based LOGA were opposed to Landry?

That's the thing. He isn't the brightest, but he is reliable when it comes to following leadership on votes, and he has great constituent service.

He would have to stick out more to get in trouble in his district.

I disagree. He's got a lot of stiff competition for that honor.

I am amazed a non Cajun who was born and raised outside of Acadiana could get elected to anything in that district. Also, lowest IQ member of the house GOP.
