Oh, the joys of politics. It's so pretty these days, isn't it, kids?!

Louisiana Public Service Commissioner Davante Lewis called Governor Jeff Landry an "asshole" on social media Thursday.

What led to wordsmithing on social media?

Landry shared a photo on X of newly confirmed U.S. Health Secretary Robert Kennedy Jr. next to a photo of former U.S. Assistant Secretary for Health Rachel Levine, saying:

"Major upgrade in the @HHSgov Secretary department. Lots of work to be done, and excited for @RobertKennedyJr to get started. Let's Make America Healthy Again!"

Lewis' Response to Jeff Landry's Tweet

Lewis did not take kindly to the tweet. He reposted the message with his disapproval of the sentiment from the Governor along with a terse message to the governor.

This tweet shows that conservatism right now is only about cruelty and chaos. They will find away to be cruel to someone just bc they can

What a completely asshole you are @LAGovJeffLandry

"He must not like me?"

Ah yes, politics in Louisiana. Always has been and always will be a "spectator sport."
