Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) listed a set of standards former President Donald Trump has to meet before he takes an active role and endorses the presumptive GOP nominee.
“When we have agreed, I’ve been very supportive. When we have disagreed, I’ve also disagreed with him,” Paul said in an interview with Spectrum News.
Before Paul can endorse Trump, the latter needs to be more outspoken on issues the Kentucky senator deems critical, he said.
“I think that it’s important that if he wants to get my vote and my support, wants me to be more active in this, that he’s gonna have to be more vocal on things like the lockdowns that I opposed, like the civil liberties abuses that I opposed, like the debt, which frankly has been bad under Republicans and Democrats,” according to Paul.
“So, I’m looking for a little bit more before I make a final decision.”

It’s not even a good list.
If Paul weren’t a fraud and were a real libertarian, he’d have been working overtime to stop and repeal legislation like the PREP Act long before it was used to squelch our rights.
He wouldn’t have quietly gone along with himself and his staff being among those exempted from the jab mandates while the needle jackboots were deployed on the rest of the country.
Rand was one of them?! I didn’t know that. Screw him (along with our TN Senators Blackburn and Hagerty).
“Trump should endorse him for speaker to replace McConnell.”
Why should he, if his vote on J6 helped put Biden in office?
No harm encouraging Libertarians to vote wisely
He is #1 for pursuing the lab leak theory
Believes in limited government
Above all is concerned with debt and spending
Is against US intervention in foreign wars (that don’t threaten us)
Give me some more useless I guess.
I will admit I’m not happy with his stance on immigration.
Paul wants to play the part of the coy mistress.
How many seats over the last ten years have we lost thanks to rand Paula’s social security cuts desires. Weird that he always touts this out during election years.
Maybe that’s why he polled in the low single digits when he ran for president in 2016 and was one of the first to drop out. Yet he fancies himself a king maker. He’s a legend in his own mind.
Rand is either with us or he’s for the destruction of everything. Choose.
