Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump responded on Thursday to attacks from Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal by suggesting he’d hardly even heard of his GOP rival.

Jindal has consistently ranked at the bottom of the polls, and the GOP frontrunner was happy to point out that out, according to a tweet by Bloomberg politics managing editor Mark Halperin.

Jindal called Trump a “narcissist” and “egomaniac” and released a video Wednesday suggesting actor Charlie Sheen as Trump’s running mate.

Jindal responded to Trump’s comments on social media.

Trump reiterated his thoughts on Twitter as well.

  1. Trump has managed to make the GOP presidential nomination process look exactly like professional wrestling.

  2. Minus the innate good taste and class the sport exemplifies.

  3. Trump has completely devastated the GOP primary field in a little over 3 months. And feasted on their rotting corpses.

  4. C’mon fellas…

    Most of us have been saying ‘Bobby Who???..’ for months now. Trump is just pointing out the obvious here. No one knows who Jindal is, nor do they care. Hence, his low standing in the polls.

    I loathe Trump and everything he represents, but credit where credit is due - that was a pretty good burn.
