President Donald Trump took a victory lap after one of his most hated Republican rivals finished last in a three-way GOP primary.
Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-LA) was among only seven Senate Republicans who voted to convict him over Jan. 6, and the 79-year-old president endorsed Rep. Julia Letlow (R-LA) to unseat him, and state treasurer John Fleming forced a runoff after finishing in second place after funding his own campaign.
“Bill Cassidy, after falsely using his ‘relationship’ with me during his political career, and winning Elections because of it, voted to impeach me on preposterous charges that were fake then, and now, are criminally insane!” Trump gloated late Saturday as the results came in.
“His disloyalty to the man who got him elected is now a part of legend,” Trump added, “and it’s nice to see that his political career is OVER! I’d like to thank the Great People of the State of Louisiana, and this Big Victory will only make me work even harder for your success, and all that comes with it. I LOVE YOU ALL. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! President DONALD J. TRUMP.”
