Trump calls out Louisiana's high car insurance rates
President Trump on Friday blasted Louisiana for its high car insurance rates, ahead of a rally to support the Republican candidate in the state's governor's race.
"I will be in Louisiana tonight (Love it!) to get Republicans to vote for either of our two great Republican Candidates and force a runoff with John Bel Edwards, who has done a really poor job of tax cutting, car insurance cost (worst in USA), & is suspect on your 2nd Amendment!" Trump tweeted.
According to Insure.com's 2019 rankings of car insurance rates in all 50 states, Louisana is the second-worst in the nation (only to Michigan) in terms of having the most expensive average annual car insurance premiums.
