to be commander in chief. when you hear that, i thought these guys all signed a pledge. what did that pledge say? it said they would support the nominee of our party. bobby jindal, the governor of louisiana, refuses to say to me and i pressed him repeatedly would you support him, he wouldn t say that. but george pataki, the former governor of new york says flatly he couldn t vote for donald trump because he s not qualified to be president. look, they signed a pledge saying that they would. i take them at their word. as you saw, governor jindal didn t say no, he just didn t answer the question. i believe when we have a nominee, our party will be unified. you saw it in 2008, hillary clinton and barack obama went at it epically. that worked well for their party. they had a lot of excitement on their side. you are seeing that on steroids this cycle for our side. they had a high water mark of 11 million people watching that debate. i think we ll see a similar
through more than any community has a right to be asked to go through. governor jindal didn t say anything at that news conference. but before today s meeting, he tweeted this governor jindal is nothing if not consistent. here s the thing, and kudos to jindal because i think over the last, you know partisanship aside, over the last couple months he s improved his image. but you have to be careful about looking too partisan and political about this. i think what he said today comes across as partisan and political as opposed to being a leader for the entire state and working with the administration to make this thing happen. the other thing is we have 30,000 people down there, 17,000 national guard we sent there, burning millions of gallons of oil, $30 million in the bank from bp. i think it s kind of hard to sort of say there s not an urgency or there s not been an all boots on the ground from this administration.
