Good for him. That won’t make any difference in the end and he can bask in his principled stand, but reality is brutal and we are at this point due to factors he has no control over.
Cutting off your nose to spite your face has never been advisable.
Me Too!
You are So Right!
Many good things can be said about Rand Paul, but money in people’s bank accounts will help Trump and Senate Republicans win the election, and that matters more than complaints about overspending.
If $600 becomes $300, people will blame Trump and Republicans, and vote accordingly.
Beat me to it.
rand is in favor of whatever gets him camera time on any significant cable news outlet.
You are making the assumption that Republicans ARE conservative.
I think that is the mistake many are making these days.
A Conservative would not sign onto a bill that gives direct payments to people, and call it a stimulus. Its a hand out. I am sorry if you are unemployed, but giving you a cash payment every week does nothing to stimulate anything but the recipient. .

Exactly. Notice how he always speaks in the abstract. “Republicans”, etc. How about naming names, Rand? You know who is negotiating this in the Senate. I understand Rand has a special rule to never criticize McConnell due to being from the same state. In the end Rand is more controlled opposition unwilling to fully engage our corrupt institutions.
No, I have no delusions at all about where most Republicans stand politically.
I vote conservative in every election and that is usually also the Republican candidate, too, but I realize that thats because there is no one else for the conservative party to endorse that any further right that a wishy washy republican.
The Uniparty in all its (disgusting) glory.
He is not wrong
