Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal already took a quick swipe at Donald Trump today over a prank tweet, but he took another shot at the Republican frontrunner Saturday evening. Trump had already complained that “okay doctor” Ben Carson had taken a swipe at him over his faith, but Jindal decided to up the ante by questioning Trump’s reticence to discuss the Bible.
Donald Trump refuses to discuss the Bible because it’s “too personal.” Really? NOTHING is too personal for Trump.https://t.co/r1VjpOvj6V

Carson falls second only to Trump in many polls, while Jindal barely registers, so what could it hurt to take some shots? Reaction on social media certainly didn’t show Jindal’s comment helping his cause.

@BobbyJindal Jindal never seen a presidential candidate so negative and off course before. Drop out now and save some face. Trump gives hope

@BobbyJindal Trump is winning and you are at 2%. Even 2% milk is more serious then you. TRUMP IS WINNING.

@BobbyJindal How long are you going to hump @realDonaldTrump leg? All you talk about is trump, tells me you have nothing to offer. DONE

@BobbyJindal There is also no religious test for public office. So what's the difference if he has or hasn't read it?

@BobbyJindal do you have anything else to talk about other than @realDonaldTrump? What are you afraid of? Try talking about issues.
