Rand Paul Urges Voters to Oust GOP Senators Murkowski and Collins: 'This Is Our Problem'

Republican Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky on Saturday urged voters to oust GOP Senators Lisa Murkowski and Susan Collins for voting with Democrats to keep Obamacare.

During his address at the "Save America Summit" at Trump National Doral in Miami, Florida, Paul called for the ousting of Senate Republicans who crossed party lines to vote with Democrats against repealing the Affordable Care Act.

"This is our problem: seven Republicans voted to keep Obamacare. You remember John McCain doing it. We won't name all others, but that's the thing, this is our problem," he told the crowd.

"We know the Democrats want to have socialised health medicine and national health care, but the Republicans that say they're for it, we gotta keep them honest, and you gotta send home the ones that lie to you."

This would be worth a try. We could watch the Commie “Rats try to save these two pixies and use their money trying to get them reelected.

Murkowski and Collins are “petty tyrants” like Fauci.

Rand is on a roll.

"I sat there with Senator McCain. I think both of us recognize that it's very hard to disappoint your colleagues," Murkowski said after the vote, according to NBC News. "And I know that there is disappointment because it was the three votes that Senator McCain, Senator Collins, and I cast that did not allow this bill to move forward. And that is difficult."

She added: "But I believe each of us stood up for the reasons that we felt were right."

Commie traitor bitch.

He’s getting better, we need more people to call them out - hopefully Boehner doesn’t cry.

Oust? COME ON MAN! Murkowski is doable. Collins we’re ‘stuck’ with for 6 years. Won’t get any better than her in Maine. I got tired of Snowe’s act so it was good riddance knowing the replacement would be a democrat. Get 5-6 more seats. That’ll make her invisible.

The “other” Kentucky Senator isn’t going to be too happy with this.

I have oust Murkowski stickers on my trks bumpers; but been here in Alaska 30 years and know how the wind blows. I’ve never voted for her, but unless somebody like Palin runs; Lisa is going to win. Reason is that ranked choice voting that won last fall. Murkowski will win due to that. She gets 100% of Indian vote, all kinds of dem votes cause shes so liberal, just enough Repubs to get her over the top. Don’t bet against her and remember that. She’d have to get caught nakid on tv with another women to end her career and that ain’t in the cards.

Collins just got re-elected, so that’s 6 years out.

I believe this is absolutely necessary, starting with Murkowski for sure

"This Is Our Problem"

And Biden is your doing, since you certified his election, along with unlimited voter fraud.

I haven’t voted for Lisa since 2004. And I definitely won’t vote for her in next year.

“ Murkowski and Collins are “petty tyrants”.
**************

Yeh, Murkowski more so than Collins. Murkowski is up for reelection in 2022. So, she should be primaried for sure. Collins was just re-elected so we’re stuck with her for six more years. Let’s see how it goes with her.

Collins I can cut a little slack because she is from a stupid libtard northeastern state with an electorate incapable of electing anyone better. But Murkowski needs to go!

Does that dam state allow rats to vote in the primary for pubes?

That other Senator is too busy cashing the checks Coke and Delta gave his PAC as he quickly turned against conservative boycotts in like 7 minutes

Murkowski has a republican challenger this time that would be a a great replacement. Murkowski is only in the senate because she thinks she and her family on the seat in the senate. She needs to be dumped.
