EVERYTHING is about the Bush Plan for North Mexico (aka USA).

It has been the life’s work of Bush League Republicans to fundamentally transform this country.

They are not going to allow us to stop it, much less reverse it unless they are removed from office.

In 2020, these Senators must be replaced with patriots who side with the citizens and the rule of law:

Gardner, McSally, Daines, Collins, Cornyn, Capito, Enzi, Rounds, Graham, Tillis, Sasse, Hyde-Smith, McConnell.

First off Paul, it isnt a legislature any longer for the people. Its a cabal by those, like yourself, who have carved out a criminal enterprise to do what they think they can when they can.

“So that’s it. The Kentucky punching bag joins other Republican stiffs in their rebuff to US and President Trump. Once Trump is gone, so is the GOP for me.”

The only way I would vote GOP after Trump is gone is if Prence got in and CONTINUED WITH PRESIDENT TRUMP’S POLICIES. Otherwise, I quit voting.

rand paul is a self obsessed tool. always has been. people yammering about how he is “principled” obviously don’t understand what principle is.

and what “globalist maneuverings” are you talking about?

> This should’ve been addressed when Paul Ryan was Speaker of the House...Rand Paul is consistent about wanting fiscal sanity. <

Those are two very good points. I think Paul picked the wrong time to kick up a fuss. But he is one of the good guys.

Rand we will remember that you voted with El Chapo. Don’t come us in x amount of years an expect us not to remember. Hey big thinker come up with a solution. No gets us nowhere. Worse than a disappointment a betrayal. I guess that guy breaking your ribs taught you a lesson.

I can only conclude that Rand has inherited too many of his daddy’s weirdo genes...correct on a number of issues but then...horrible, crazy on other matters

Senator Paul, for good or bad, is correct on the side of the Constitution in all of his decisions.

This is the VERY reason I could never get behind him or his father...they take 3 steps forward and bamb…..4 steps back...

You cannot depend on people like this, either you are or you are not, but don’t play the middle fence game, it does not work in life, never has and never will...

Time for Kentucky to vote someone in that has some spine and brass balls that will support America and her people...

Wrong argument mowerboy.

Congress has already granted the president transfer authority in response to a national emergency.

Have the guts to admit that you are just an open borders puke and be done with it.

The money Trump will use HAS BEEN appropriated by Congress.

Did Rand Paul, or any other Republican senator, raise any kind of hell when Obama spent money NOT appropriated by Congress when he sent $1.5 billion cash to Iran?

Why does no one ask Obama where the money came from?

Maybe Trump can go to that particular source for funds.

GOP & Rand Paul would be wise to support the People’s National Emergency Declaration.
