Sorry, Bobby: ‘Duck Dynasty’ Star And Jindal Pal Gets Chummy With The Donald

Donald Trump nabbed “Duck Dynasty” star Willie Robertson’s praise for his business savvy and attractive wife last week, months after the duck call tycoon had endorsed Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal for President.

“Where the hell is Willie?” Trump said at the Friday campaign event, summoning Robertson to the stage.

The GOP frontrunner asked Robertson, who was clad in sunglasses, his signature American flag bandana, and camouflage shorts: “Willie, do you love Trump?”

“Here’s the deal: We’re both successful businessmen. We both have pretty big shows on television. We both have wives that are 1,000 times better looking than us,” Robertson replied, as a chummy Trump clapped him on the back. “So I like Trump.”

Jindal made an appearance on a 2014 episode of the Louisiana family’s reality show, and Robertson had attached his name to a fundraising email for Jindal’s 2016 campaign in June, writing, “Bobby has my vote.”

Jindal reportedly called Robertson over the weekend, and the Republican was reassured Robertson’s appearance was not a formal endorsement.

    Nobody cared about Jindal before Trump jumped in. Nobody cares about Jindal with Trump in. Nobody will care about Jindal after Trump implodes. He has as much impact on this election as the commenters here do.

  5. This is getting pathetic. TPM, stop taking the friggin’ bait.
