Trump has ruined the GOP.

The governor simply retained his seat.

Bullshit. Trump failed. He showed up 3 times. This was the first test of trump in Louisiana. Edwards was first elected in 2015, before the Republican primaries.

yes he simply retained his seat after trump went down ..did a rally and basically begged for their support against impeachment....but lets just ignore all that

Moron....the democrats have the votes to impeach so they are going to impeach....there is no stopping that......

Moron....Republicans fund-raise off of these issues. It’s all about the money.

See, you stereotypical FoxNews viewers have zero depth to your understanding of political realities, or how any of this works.

I thought blue policy was a failure? Why did a democrat win twice in a row in a red state?

Cause they own the media, hollywood, and the education system. Add to that the Santa Claus factor.

 

[JWBooth]

Not so fast. Edwards has governed in a more socially and fiscally conservatively way than his GOPer predecessor. La. GOP didn’t make a real effort as a result. Had he done otherwise he would be out on his ass.

Trump has ruined the GOP.

Yes.

 

[JoeB131]

The incumbent won. How is this an upset?

Because Trump put his reputation on the line for both this guy and Bevin in Kentucky, and lost both.

Hell it means more if he was a freshman. If blue policy is such a failure, why did he win re-election in a red state?

Because the state is populated by failures.

 

[JoeB131]

Because the state is populated by failures.

Well, um, yeah... they did vote for Republicans in the last five elections for President.

But here's the thing. Trump went down and campaigned for both Rispone and Bevin in deep red states, and they both lost.

Who cares? Everyone in Louisiana has fleas and rabies.

That's what happens when you vote red for so many years.

The wins keep piling up for Democrats.

I bet Trump's phone is ringing off the hook from Republican candidates telling him to stay away, "do not campaign for me; I am trying to win!" After BIG Democrat wins in the deep red states of Virginia, Moscow Mitch's Kentucky and and the deep southern state of Louisiana, it's very obvious that the word Trump is toxic to most Americans. His poll numbers, always the worst of any President, are in the biggest dumpster ever.

But, we should all encourage him to stay on the campaign trail "helping?" Republican candidates. Right now, he's the best election booster the Democrats have! Bigly!!!

Who Trump campaigned against on multiple occasions and lost.

Louisiana is and will continue to be a conservative state, nobody is saying otherwise, so why are you arguing with the made up debates in your head?

Like I said, nobody is claiming Edwards isn't conservative, not sure why you feel the need to repeat yourself. It's that Trump campaigned and came down to the state on several occasions and lost. Same thing in KY and the incumbent Trump protege lost there as well. That appears to demonstrate that Trump doesn't really have any pull when it comes to getting someone across the finish line in Trump friendly states.

Then again, Trumpbots aren't conservative and are more into cult of personality than anything else.
