Who is the Gov of Louisiana?

Channel switching came across Faux and Fucker Carlson.

Im pretty sure it was the Gov of Louisiana he had on. A republican.

Who started ranting that even with lockdown we have had more cases so he wants to
open it all up, like nothing has happen.

I wonder if he has bought shares in caskets.

1. The governor of Louisiana is John Bel Edwards and he is a Democrat.

He is probably too conservative a Democrat for most people since he is against abortion because he is a Roman Catholic. However, he has done an excellent job fixing the budget problems in Louisiana that his predecessor, Bobby Jindal, left behind.

ETA: Are you sure it wasn't one of the senators? Both Bill Cassidy and John Kennedy are Republicans.

6. A statement THAT stupid sounds like Kennedy, the Senator. A retarded hyena is smarter.

The Governor isn't such a bad guy, but is contending with a LOT of Republican ignorance in his state.

He is also a physician and went to Oxford. His cornpone accent is fake, just like he is.
