Rand Paul made a plea to his fellow libertarian-leaning voters: Don’t throw away your vote on a third-party candidate and allow Hillary Clinton to become president.
The Kentucky senator slammed the Clintons at a Rotary Club in Maysville, Ky. on Thursday.
“We have now a comparison between Hillary Clinton and her husband who have grown rich off of government service, selling themselves, and selling their speeches,” Paul said. “Bill Clinton made a million dollars talking to a Russian bank that was negotiating the purchase of a uranium company in North America, who had to approve that? Hillary Clinton.”
“Bill Clinton made almost a million dollars speaking to an electronics company who was trying to sell electronics into Iran,” he continued. “Who had to approve that deal, outside of the sanctions, who had to have a waiver for the sanctions? Hillary Clinton. They ought to be in jail for these things.”
While it’s understandable that a libertarian wouldn’t want to vote for a war hawk and crony capitalist like Clinton, Paul emphasized the importance of voting for Donald Trump instead of Gary Johnson.
Paul said he signed a document giving his word that he’d support the Republican nominee, and urged other voters to support the candidate they agree with the most, even if he’s not their first choice.
When it comes to Johnson, Paul said, he’s polling well for a Libertarian candidate but it’s not realistic to believe he has any chance of winning and a vote for him only helps Clinton, especially in key swing states.

Good!
I like Paul. He was not my choice for president but I will be glad to vote for him as one of my senators.
Rand Paul is pragmatic, intelligent and Honest.
He’s forward thinking enough not to be one of those establishment never trumpers
I tried to maybe support Rand but finally decided that I could never vote for him, sorry. He parrots his Dad’s screwed up defense and foreign policy ideas too much, imho these are dangerous and at least naive.
The apple didn’t fall far enough from the tree, imho...
but on this point, Rand is right and deserves some applause
WikiLeaks revealed last week that Hillary wears durable Adult Diapers. Since then, WikiLeak’s top London lawyer has been run over by a train. Coincidence? But now, will Trump use this info against Hillary in their debates? DEPENDS!!
Will Trump make sure Hillary is thrown in jail?
Vote Trump or a women that poops in a diaper and pees in a bag and can’t stand for 10 minutes. God help us.
yes. AND SHE’S CORRUPT AS ALL HELL AND GONE!
it doesn’t matter if she pees in a bag
what matters is to get rid of Obama/Soros/Kerry/Reid/Pelosi/Hilliary and all the rest of the corruptoids that sh*t on USA and the American people
Rand Paul exhibits class whereas Cruz, Kasich, Bush, and Romney show their ass.
Herself shouldn’t be in jail.
She should be on Dancing With The Stars.
Dancing the Tyburn Jig.
Yep hang her high from the gallows!!!
That’s the net result, but “Dancing the Tyburn Jig” sounds so much more festive!
Yeah but most probably would have no clue what you meant.
Serious class given that in the first debate, Paul attacked Trump almost immediately. Good on you, Rand. Maybe you're going to wake up some people.
I don't blame Cruz for being really pissed, but he should be saying something along the lines of, "We're not going to be best friends any time soon, but that doesn't mean we don't need Donald Trump winning on November 8. Let's get him in the White House and start rebuilding this country after eight years of destruction." I like to think that would get the Cruz holdouts to stop being foolish and support Trump. (Mrs. D and I have had no trouble moving over to Trump. He ran a superior campaign, he's got the right ideas, and he's a gazillion times better than Her Heinous.)
The other schlemiels are wrong, but I didn't vote for them so I don't care as much and I don't think what they have to say is very important. Plus, their supporters are by and large RINOs who are more inclined to vote for Her Heinous on their own without Kasich, Bush and Romney withholding support from Trump.
WTG Rand Paul!!! Now that is backing your candidate to bad some of the others don’t see things this clearly...
Thank You Rand Paul!!!
When I turned on my TV earlier today, and briefly caught Hillary in her orange jumpsuit outfit, for a moment there I thought... wow, they finally caught up with her!!
