LA Voice: “Call it the gift that keeps on giving.
Just as we as a nation are beginning to emerge from the four-year train wreck that was the Donald Trump presidency, we’re greeted with the stark reminder of yet another failed Repugnantcan administration.
Even better, the two are now uniting under the double yoke of irrelevancy and incompetence.
It was in September 2015, when his own doomed presidential aspirations were still in the embryonic stage (from which they never emerged) that Bobby Jindal called Donald Trump “shallow” and an “unstable narcissist” while warning that a Trump nomination would torpedo the Repugnantcans’ chances of capturing the White House.
“Like all narcissists, Donald Trump is insecure and weak, and afraid of being exposed,” Jindal said back then. “And that’s why he is constantly telling us how big and how rich and how great he is, and how insignificant everyone else is. We’ve all met people like Trump, and we know that only a very weak and small person needs to constantly tell us how strong and powerful he is. Donald Trump believes that he is the answer to every question.”
While he could well have been holding a mirror up to his own reign of error, Jindal went on to say that Trump “has no understanding of policy. He’s full of bluster but has no substance. He lacks the intellectual curiosity to even learn.
“You may have recently seen that after Trump said the Bible is his favorite book, he couldn’t name a single Bible verse or passage that meant something to him,” Jindal continued, calling Trump’s claim “just a show.” Jindal said at the time, “And he hasn’t ever read the Bible. But you know why he hasn’t read the Bible? Because he’s not in it.”
Well, guess what? Jindal was correct (for a change).”
