“We are supposed to have principles and this time it is a border wall, “

Swear to Christ you muppets are dumber than dirt!

Big mouths today, sniveling cowards when Obama was president. Where was this clown and the rest of you when we had national emergencies declared for crap that didnt even involve this nation directly? I didnt see the vast Rand Paul army doing anything then! So spare me the exaggerated prowess of his voting bloc.

You presume to know what i was thinking?

And insults, nice. Enjoy your inflated sense of omniscience

And just so you know, i and most of my friends and associates were madder than hell and doing everything er could to stop it.

Just because i agree with a constitutional principle does not mean we were ever willing to give the Kenyan a pass on anything

Anyway as i stated before, i may not be a tough guy on a message board but i have and will raise more money and votes for our president than you could in 20 lifetimes

Good point. That’s the dirty little secret about libertarians. When it comes right down to it they’re against national sovereignty. I like to call libertarianism, anarchist-lite.

LOL!!!!!

Yeah, ok. Did old Rand put out a bad ass press release?

Amazing how you vaulted “principals” didnt buy you any power against people that aren’t as impressed with you as you seem to be.

Congress has GAILED MISERABLY for decades Paul. Go pound sand. Trump is trying to make it happen and you and the rest of the pukes are once again trying to make some mentally retarded political statement.

The Communists are further reproached for desiring to abolish countries and nationality.
This principle? From the Manifesto?

If libertarians are for such a principle, that means they are against the US Constitution, particularly the Guarantee Clause of Article 4 Section 4:
The United States shall guarantee to every state in this union a republican form of government, and shall protect each of them against invasion; and on application of the legislature, or of the executive (when the legislature cannot be convened), against domestic violence.
Trump is obviously upholding the Constitution on this vital matter, whereas the libertarian in question opposes it.

Apparently this a—hole never heard of the “Implied Powers” of the president. The president has power to enforce the law and fulfill his duties, even when such powers are not expressly granted by the Constitution. If it is granted that the president has the responsibility to protect the states from invasion, then it necessarily follows that he has the power to do what is necessary to protect the states. That would involve spending money of course, no matter what he decided to do.

Yeah - I went to his comment on twitter and told him: “Ummm - the Congress already said the money could be spent or it wouldn’t be sitting there...when the Congress controls every penny, it seems that many of those pennies get diverted by the same congress and wasted..but try to use the money properly and you balk...don’t be a prig.”

The clauses in Article 2 with respect to being CIC of the armed forces and with respect to faithful execution of the laws are quite clear.

Some of us haven’t forgotten the real nature and real agenda of this man (loosely termed).
