Former Republican Rep. Ron Paul blasted the presidential hopeful, Donald Trump for being “authoritarian” on Alan Colmes’ Show recently.
Paul’s comments about Trump came about when he was asked if Donald Trump was good or bad for the Republican Party, to which Paul replied, chuckling, “Well I don’t even care whether he’s good or bad for the Republican party. I don’t have much interest in that per se. But, I think he’s a dangerous person and a lot of people find him kind of funny and they love him, even libertarian types love him…”
When Colmes presses Paul to explain why Trump is so dangerous, Paul states:
Well, they like him because he is so disruptive … to the party system, and I enjoy that too! But, I think he is a man ….if conditions deteriorate, which they can … people want to be told … what to do ‘And I know what the answer is, and I’ll do this, and I am the man to this.’ … he comes across very well–and people listen to him and I believe that he may be raising white horses on questions and he’s going to ride in…
Paul went on further to say that Trump is the virtual opposite of what a libertarian is, “He’s an authoritarian and he claims that’s how he’s made all his money. So, I see that as dangerous.”
A few months ago, when Trump made his announcement that he would be running for president, he wasted no time in asserting his authority in his speech. He said,
I will stop Iran from getting nuclear weapons. And we won’t be using a man like Secretary Kerry that has absolutely no concept of negotiation, who’s making a horrible and laughable deal, who’s just being tapped along as they make weapons right now and then goes into a bicycle race at 72-years-old and falls and breaks his leg. I won’t be doing that. And I promise, I will never be in a bicycle race — that I can tell you.
The obumbles you have now is a psychotic wannabe authoritarian that never had authority in his life except a queer to teach him demand and subservience .... which is not authority.
For an educated man, you're a frikkin' doofus !
Is it mandated somewhere that I MUST put something on my homepage?
Chileans didn’t do so bad when Allende was replaced with Pinochet.
LOL!
Pandernut doesn't fall far from the tree, does he?
LOL!
He believes that private property can be taken away by the government for any reason. Si, I guess Paul is right.
Well, he doesn’t require a “seeing” eye dog....Doctor...
That’s called a “leader”, Ron. As a follower, I can see how you are confused by it.
Trump is certainly a believer in bigger taxes and big government spending, but second to his dishonesty, that’s what his socialist believers like about him.
If it was up to Trump Edward Snowden would be assassinated... he said so himself. The man is off the rails.
Ron Paul calling somebody “dangerous”.
Now that’s rich, after a few of the nutty things he’s followed.
A mixed bag of nuts, Ron Paul is.
“He believes that private property can be taken away by the government”
BS.
If we can survive the extremely dangerous, Obama dictatorship, we can survive an “dangerous authoritarian” Trump regime.
Not at all.
So you admit it. Trump is an authoritarian, only he’s more palatable to your taste. How lame.
