What do you think?

Over to you, Freepers...

[wildcard_redneck]

Rand’s leftist neighbor literally beat the spine right out of him. What a weak little twat.

[Yogafist]

He has been spewing about the “huge amount of fraud,” then takes the cowards way out. Hey Rand, if we can’t trust states to conduct their elections legally, why are states even bound by the constitution? Every state for itself.

[joshua c]

For a rubber stamp, I think Congress is grossly overpaid.

I will do it for half and I will bring my own stamp.

[bray]

Has the count been frozen?

[Semper Vigilantis]

Does this idiot understand that no one was asking them to overthrow an election, but to follow the constitution and ask the contested states legislatures to reassess, certify and resubmit the electors for their state?

[volunbeer]

We must, we absolutely must, fix this mess and restore confidence and integrity to our elections.

---

If you certify a fraud and an unconstitutional election and then promise to “fix it next time” how have you upheld the constitution?

I generally like Paul and even appreciate that he tried to explain himself, but the constitution mattered in November just as much as it does here in January.

[RummyChick]

major garrett said something that I actually do agree with in a sense

The people that were objecting were using procedural blanks...in essence...meaning they knew it had no power and were just doing it for show....

someone saying right now certain GOP wont wear masks while they are grouped together and saying she is at a super spreader event

[Texas Fossil]

The election certified by many states were “Stolen” by Election FRAUD.

Period.

Will we never have an honest election again?

Is the Republic Dead?

Has it really been Dead for 20 years and nobody would admit it?

Have the Congress sold out our nation 30 years ago and hid it, because what they did was a crime they could execute them for?

[Jim W N]

Rand Paul has been in the DC Beltway too long.

We’re not expected to be mindless robots following the exact letter of the law regardless of any circumstance. We’re supposed to reasonably abide by the Constitution but if there is clear fraud and theft, then we deal with it.

Validating a fraudulent election and a fraudulent President isn’t virtuous or “legal”. It is ratifying malfeasance at the highest levels and destroying the freedoms for which the Constitution stands.

[Jewbacca]

All this caused by the SCOTUS who dodged very clear violations of the Constitution on a fake “standing” dodge.

John Roberts is garbage.

[glorgau]

I hope as the nation’s anger cools, we can channel that energy into essential electoral reforms in every state.

How? Hold an election and vote on them?

[OftheOhio]

Mitch’s bitch. Simple as that. Notice he didn’t speak against Mumbai Mike Lee’s Indians replacing American worker bill on December 2nd. Such priorities, tsk-tsk. Nice Christmas present there, Rand. We will all remember in spades.

[RckyRaCoCo]

“Depends on what the word IS, is”

[DAVEY CROCKETT]

I fear the chaos of establishing a precedent that Congress can overturn elections.

****I fear not!

[a real Sheila]

“This would doom the electoral college forever.”

Ah, what we have now is a paradox.

Because the electoral college IS now doomed forever due to this STOLEN election being allowed to stand.

[Rocco DiPippo]

"The question is: Should Congress override the certified results from the states and nullify the states’ right to conduct elections? The vote today is not a protest; the vote today is literally to overturn the election!"

Wrong, Rand, you f*cking prick - the vote should have been to right the wrong of a stolen election.

[Kickass Conservative]

You do not “overturn” Fraud, you punish those who committed it.

[pepsi_junkie]

America is admired around the world for our free elections. We must, we absolutely must, fix this mess and restore confidence and integrity to our elections.

He's basically saying 'yea, there was rampant fraud but we must endorse it and then try to somehow fix it, or at least get you to think we did'

Very insprational.

[Lera]

He needs to shut up and so does everyone who thinks it’s ok certify fraud .

TIME FOR A NEW PARTY and let the Republicans go the way of Whigs .
Get the Democrats to vote for you

[entropy12]

With that style of thinking United States of America would never get created. When the elites from England ruled the American colony, no amount of peaceful protests would have given to the greatest democratic republic of USA.

The DC elites, all of them have become too tyrannical and the last straw was to create a fraudulent win for Biden and the elites in DC have no problem going along. If someone thinks peaceful protests will change anything, they are delusional.

The largest democracy in the world of India was also formed by patriots sacrificing their lives to drive the British rulers out of their crown jewel colony of India. There were assassinations and firing squads faced by the patriots.

Rand Paul, Show me one dictatorship dislodged by peaceful protests in last thousand years.
