Bobby Jindal Goes OFF On Trump

[ESF]

OK, so I know that Bobby Jindal is a particularly sad sack of lame, but this is all just spectacular.

Jindal calls Trump practically every name in the book

Bobby Jindal pulled no punches against Donald Trump on Thursday, raining down a deluge of criticisms on the current Republican leader in the polls, calling him "a narcissist," "an egomaniac," "non-serious," "substance-free," "insecure," "weak," "shallow," "unstable," among other knocks.

"Donald Trump is for Donald Trump. He believes in nothing other than himself. He's not for anything, he's not against anything," the governor of Louisiana and Republican presidential candidate told a gathering at the National Press Club in Washington. "Donald Trump is a narcissist and he's an egomaniac. That may sound like a serious charge to make, but everyone knows it to be true."

The danger in Trump's candidacy, Jindal remarked, is that, "ironically," he "could destroy America's chance to be great again."

"I'm putting aside my political mission today," Jindal said, acknowledging his campaign's struggles in the polls but noting that he is doing well in early states like Iowa, where the first caucus is in February.

Jindal also slammed fellow Republican candidates who are latching on to Trump's rhetoric, saying that it makes no sense to "enable" his behavior.

"He is not a serious man," Jindal said, remarking that it is time for Republicans and Americans to "fire" Trump.

“Just because a lot of people like watching Kim Kardashian, we wouldn't put her in the White House either," he said, taking aim at the former reality-show host.

He skewered Trump's professed love for the Bible, a book the businessman has named as his favorite, far above his second favorite, his own "The Art of the Deal."

"Donald Trump's never read the Bible," Jindal charged. "The reason we know he's never read the Bible, he's not in the Bible."

Trump's "summer of silliness" must end, Jindal said, while acknowledging that he did find it humorous that Trump gave out fellow candidate Lindsey Graham's cellphone number, for example.

"He's a carnival act," said Jindal, whose campaign also released a new video Thursday that compared Trump's campaign antics to those of "winning" actor Charlie Sheen in 2011.

AHHHAHAHAHAHAHA

@tooshort eponinepontmercy that was the line that killed me too.

Bobby Jindal, who knew he had it in him?

Now we will get to see Trump react. Will it be with an outright slur, or just some coded hate speech? It's anyone's guess!

[pixy0stix]

I love that Trump is causing the other candidates to lose their shit.

[doxies]

The "winning" video is great.

[IIOY]

Well, this is delightful.

It will definitely be coded hate speech, but then he'll clarify and say it wasn't actually hate speech.

The Emperor is not wearing any clothes....

I need to learn to insert gifs: Dems to Jindal [Cowbell clip "Don't blow this for us Gene!"]

[jeaniebueller]

Now they all see what it was like to us Democrats when Sarah Palin was unleashed to the world as a serious VP candidate.

I love that a republican is maybe getting comfortable enough that he is going to lose that he doesn't feel the need to appease Trump. I figure most of them have been holding back because they either want the chance to be VP if he wins, they don't want to piss off his supporters, or they still fear that if they piss him off he will still run third party if he doesn't get the nod.

[stephogirl]

Maybe you aren't a "real" candidate unless you can rouse the ire of The Trump. Jindal's probably trying to improve his visibility.

Jindal only pretends to be stupid.  He knows he doesn't stand a chance in hell of being the nominee.  I'm guessing he decided to go full frontal/kamikaze because why the fuck not?

[summer]

Well, Trump thinks it's cool when he "talks straight" and "doesn't hold back", so we'll see what happens when someone else does the same.

[2doxies]

This is unexpected and amazing.

[ttt]

This primary season is just full of surprises!!!!!

[laurenpetro]

I just assume he knows he's not getting anywhere so has nothing to lose and everything to gain.

[StrawberryBlondie]

DH bought a Bobby Jindal shirt as a joke. The Rested, Tanned, Ready one.

I might convince him to wear it tonight because this is awesome.

[starlily]

This is amazing.

Does this mean Donald Trump is a hyphenated American?

[eclaires]

I hope this is a new trend. Because a no holds barred insult deluge on Trump from every candidate would entertain me. I'd almost forgive everyone who supports him simply because they are entertained by his bullshit if I was equally entertained by the insults thrown at him...almost.

[zoegirltx]

well, good for him.
I do think it's probably a last ditch effort to get any kind of publicity & attention.

At what point do those candidates polling 1/2/3 % in the polls throw in the towel? Ricky Perry is close b/c he has no $$ left...

Those that are already supporting Trump aren't going to suddenly realize Trump is all these things & it's unlikely that, even if/when trump drops out, they would turn their support to Jindal.

[Michelle]

Is this appropriate timing to share that my sister-in-law loves Trump?

THE sister in law? (I only have one - the racist homophobic Kim Davis supporting Trump loving bigoted SIL).

BURN.

Trump is so full of shit, it's amazing he isn't constantly leaking fecal matter out of every orifice of his body.

It's mind boggling that people just take his statements at face value.

[zoegirltx]

this is getting really good! I can't wait to see how low they both go.
Let me know when when get to "your mama!" insults....
