Trump ENEMY TO Win Louisiana Primary? Sen. Bill Cassidy, Who Voted To CONVICT Trump Speaks Up

Senator Bill Cassidy, one of the few Republicans who voted to convict Donald Trump during his impeachment trial, is once again in the spotlight as the Louisiana primary heats up. Cassidy has defended his vote as a matter of constitutional duty, but Trump and his allies have never let it go—branding him a “traitor” and backing challengers to unseat him. Senator Bill Cassidy (R-LA) spoke to voters at a campaign stop in Lafayette, Louisiana ahead of the state's May 16 primary election. He delivered brief remarks about his pro-life stance on the issue of abortion before taking questions from attendees. The incumbent senator was facing two challengers in the Republican primary, Rep. Julia Letlow and former Rep. John Fleming. Polling conducted by Emerson College in April showed Fleming leading the field with 28 percent followed by President Trump-endorsed Letlow with 27 percent and then Cassidy with 21 percent. Another 22 percent answered as "don't know."
