The Donald Trump Act is great, and the idea of Donald Trump is great -- BUT the reality of Donald Trump is absurd, he's a non-serious carnival act.
Of course, some might say the same about Jindal's reach for the presidency.
Also, Jindal and crew hope the attack on Trump may serve as a distraction from the reality that holes are already appearing in the flim-flam budget passed by the Louisiana Legislature and signed by Jindal. The plan was that the budget, which both the legislature and Jindal knew was flim-flammery, would implode as Jindal's term as governor ended, leaving the mess for the next governor and legislature to clean up, but the governor and his advisers miscalculated, and the holes in the budget showed up too soon.

As Melinda Deslatte says:
As lawmakers patched their way through this year's budget, many of them talked as if they had drawn up a six-month plan, fully expecting Louisiana's next governor to come in with a broader blueprint for fixing the state's financial mess.Oops! We are to believe President Jindal will make America a great country again, when we have the example of his ruination of the State of Louisiana during his two terms as governor.
They may have been too generous. This budget may not even hold for six months.
One modest cut's already been required, other gaps have emerged and nose-diving oil prices could upend everything.
Your analysis of these two is right on! The Louisiana governor is the pot calling the kettle black...their both nasty pieces of work!
ReplyDeleteOther governor candidates fit the description, too - Scott Walker, Chris Christie, and Rick Perry, though Perry is likely to close down his campaign soon.
DeleteYour Governor always makes me thrilled with the prospect that he is GOP Presdential or VP material. It's hard not to love him if he makes it on the ballot. (sometimes I'm a little mean)
ReplyDeleteBobby would be the ideal candidate...for Democrats. :-)
