Republican presidential candidate Rand Paul lashed out at Donald Trump during a campaign event Saturday in South Carolina, arguing conservatives can’t trust the New York businessman because he has “been on both sides of every issue.”
“My goodness,” Paul said in Goose Creek to the Berkeley County GOP. “He’s been on both sides of every issue. Where is our sense? Where is our common sense?”
Added the Kentucky senator: “This is a guy who has been pro-choice before he was pro-life. This is a guy who was liberal before he was conservative. This is a guy who was a Democrat before he was a Republican before he was a Democrat before he was an independent before he was back to being a Republican.”
“I have no idea if he’s conservative,” Paul said. “We are kidding ourselves to even consider someone who is such a chameleon that he’s been on every side of every issue. Wake up America. Wake up Republicans!”
Paul and Trump have been feuding since the senator went on offense against Trump during Thursday’s Republican debate.
“How can we have Tea Party conservatives in our country think somehow Donald Trump is going to help us?” Paul said. “He’s the consummate insider. What’s wrong with Washington? People buying and selling politicians. What’s Donald Trump known for? Buying and selling politicians.”

Rand has ruined things for himself. Sucking up to _itch McConnell was one of them.
I used to kind of like him. He is not ready to be President. He needs to grow up first.
Rand Paul’s “bad time” continues.
He likes to stamp his little foot. It makes his curls bounce fetchingly.
I agree.
And look at who Trump is really giving fits to right now.
Leftists
Marxists
Socialists
Communists
Democrats (redundant, I know)
Republican leaders
GOPe
RNC
La Raza
MALDEF
NAACP
Anti-Military groups
Obama
Mitch McConnell
John Boehner
John McCain
Lindsey Graham
Bill and Hillary Clinton
Harry Reed
Nancy Pelosi

But of course he’s one of them. /s
I’ve never seen more FReepers willing to carry water for the above groups and people.
Not one of these civilian politicians deserve to hold the title of commander and chief . The Commander and Chief of our Armed Forces should be a member of the same Armed Forces , or recently and honorably retired . Putting our national security and the security of our allied world in the hands of clueless civilians will be our downfall , as it has been for a long time already . There should be our supreme military leadership and there should be a civilian/domestic leadership , separately. The Mils handle our wars and foreign affairs and the Civs handle domestic affairs .
The Constitution doesn’t provide for that ? Change the Constitution . The present one has been entirely subverted by civilian lawyers and politicians and super ultra wealthy anyway . Of course this will not happen . Until folks start thinking about it in the wake of the next deadly mega attack on our homeland .
I yell at myself all the time. Nothing at all wrong with it.
I sure hope not.
The latest...Trump’s a Trojan horse for Carly Fiorina.;-)
Makes one wonder how many of them are liberal plants.
Welcome to FR young ones.
I was young when I went door-to-door campaigning for McGovern!
Ah, Youth! ‘Wasted on the young’ as they say but you can only make some mistakes when you’re young.
Yea like the Paul family is long on common sense. AND I am not a Trump supporter, just enjoying show for now.
I won’t. I fully agree with you on this point.
Those aren’t curls, that’s a perm. And Rand paid a pretty penny if you please!
One good thing about Paul if he ran as a third party candidate he would never garner enough votes to influence the election.
He’s even more of a sissy than I thought.
Trump will roll over him like a Panzer.
Hey MOUTH.
Where you be.
You need to be filling this thread with your usual bullshiite.
And he’ll shriek like a little girl. :)
It's alright if you talk to yourself. It's even alright if you answer. As long as you don't say "what?"
Wow! A noob calling Trump supporters “rubes”??
You’ve been here less than 90 days and we need your advice??
