Show me where Rand Paul believes in minimum wage, universal basic income, etc. He made his name trashing Midwesterners for thew woke. He hates Trump, until it was in his financial interest to pretend to like him.
I’m not even going to entertain that
I don’t think Rand Paul “hates” Trump. I get the impression he is more than willing to work with Trump when their interests align. And I think Paul will make great majority leader, will work with Trump, will bring Libertarians to Trump. He won’t drink the Kool-Aid, he’s independent, which is also good. And he’d be a refreshing change from the current Senate leadership.
