The principle of fiscal discipline and NOT increasing the national debt...a position he ran on initially in 2010 and one he's held consistently since then.

“I've been fighting this battle for 15 years… Every time we raise the debt ceiling without cuts, we're stealing from our kids.” — Rand Paul on the Senate floor, October 2025 (referencing his entire Senate tenure)

“I’ve been fighting this battle for 15 years… “

Unsuccessfully.

I agree with him on this, but he is a failure. He’s accomplished nothing. He’s had 15 years to actually convince others in the Senate to agree with him, and he hasn’t. Get someone who’s actually effective. He’s not it.
