LoL. Cassidy is at 25.8 with 50% reporting. Looks like he’s going the wrong direction.

Letlow is hovering around 44%. Runoff on June 27. The runoff will be necessary as she explains her squishy rino past.

When the runoff is over Trump should taunt Cassidy into quitting immediately so that the new candidate can have the advantage of incumbency.

Cassidy was first elected to the Louisiana State Senate in 2006 as a Republican. He had previously been a Democrat, supporting Michael Dukakis for president in 1988, donating to Senator Paul Tsongas's 1992 presidential campaign,[18][19] and to Louisiana Democrats Governor Kathleen Blanco in 2003 and 2004 and Senator Mary Landrieu in 2002. In 2013, Cassidy called his donation to Landrieu a "youthful indiscretion", saying that she "got elected and fell into partisan politics...

“Trump should taunt Cassidy into quitting”

If anything, he will be a bigger thorn in Trump’s side than before. I wonder if Cornyn is watching with dread. After this, there isn’t any chance the senate will advance anything that might make Trump look good. At least until the next term.

Cassidy is at 25% with 70% reporting. I did not pay attention to this race until the past few days, and it seems Flemming might be the better candidate, and I’m surprised Trump didn’t support him since he worked in the previous Trump administration. But is there a chance that the Cassidy voters will go to Flemming and push him over the top in a runoff?

That would be interesting. Trump wins either way. Flemming’s the more conservative one but she’s good for 2 terms if she wins. Flemming’s 75. We gotta get away from the geezers. No dying in office.

You shouldn’t be surprised, Flemming doesn’t look good in a skirt.

Is Letlow worth more than spit? Most GOP congresswomen are not.

This is great, but unless our gang wakes up and starts opposing data surveillance centers, we are going to get smoked by the Marxists.
