Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul's poll numbers went down after he attacked presidential frontrunner Donald Trump in the first GOP debate, but Paul says he'll hit Trump even harder at Wednesday's second debate.

When CNN added Carly into the grown up debate, they should have ejected Rand to the kiddie debate to keep the 10 max on stage rule. But CNN kept Rand in as 11th on stage expecting Rand to use his pea-shooter aimed at Trump.
ditto for Fiorina and the rest of the 10 amnesty pimp, Iran nuke voting stooges attacking Trump on that stage
So you’re still a democrat.. you know.. like Trump..
2 very funny posts! I needed a good laugh lol
Gosh, it made my day to make you laugh.
:)
I forgot he is in the race.
We all have Rand to thank for helping McConnell get elected by endorsing him.
See how good Rand’s judgement is?
Dear Rand, as someone who wanted to support you, let me say Give it up. You just sound too much like your Dad and we mean unreliable on defense and foreign policy Like your dad, you make sense a lot of the time but on these vital issues you just haven’t reassured us. Give it up and work on these policy areas a few years and come back again when you think you’ve got better grasp of them
Am I the only one that is shocked by Paul’s behavior? I honestly had no idea he was so strange. What exactly does he hope to achieve by his actions?
This guy is a senator...God help us!
Silly Rand...
Trump has plans, big plans, super-duper plans. Belief and plans that will make America great again!
Meanwhile, Rand complains and explains...
(capitalistic jab... who knows it?)
Many seem to be waiting for Trump to “Jump the shark” and bring his candidacy to an ignominious end.
I support Trump and will admit that I have worried about this...
But just suppose it is Trump who is waiting for the MSM/Left/GOPee to do the shark jumping?
Imagine the debate going like this...
The debate quickly becomes very heated, with both the moderators and the band of GOPee henchmen greatly overstepping the bounds of acceptable behavior. Think of the Meygny Kelly episode writ much larger.
It would be obvious to all exactly what was happening... an unfair, premeditated attack on Trump with the goal of destroying his candidacy.
IMO Trump does not need the debates, it’s the MSM/Left/GOPee that need for Trump to be in the debates to give them an opportunity to wound him.
Trump could simply wait for a particularly egregious attack upon him and simply make a statement and walk out of the debate. He could simply say it was obvious that the debate was simply a forum to mount attacks against him and that he will not play. He could invite everyone to simply tune to another news network to watch a press conference he would immediately convene once he is outside.
The debate would effectively be finished, the majority of viewers would tune away and the remaining participants would be so flummoxed that it would be nearly impossible to continue on.
Trump would have all the attention squarely on himself... the ‘impromptu’ press conference would draw all eyes to it.
There essentially would be no further primary debates since without the front-runner there would be near zero interest in such events. Even if they held more debates they would be merely an exercise in futility.
Trump would be running like a 3rd party candidate, but would do so as a republican seeking the nomination... he would be in a much better position IMO.
Trump’s greatest strength is that he is “Not like those guys” he is something different... people are sick of the same old politics and hungry for something different.
It’s more appropriate this time than ever.
Rand Paul and the other 1%ers have absolutely no chance of being President. They’re just in it for their own glory at this point. It’s time for him and them to go away.
Washington, government is pure evil and corrupt and that's what politicians are government and Washington
All of the 10 out to get Trump at the debate are politicians or aspiring for a political career in Washington and our out to make money of the corrupt process and rich internationalist donors . so all are corrupt and bought and paid for by foreign interests
All of the 10 voted for Iran to nuke the USA (The Corker bill)
Voted for Empowering Obama and Obama trade and etc.
None of them speak out against China,Mexico, only Trump a
I hope you didn't intend to include Cruz in that description. Cruz is neither an amnesty pimp nor a supporter of the nuke deal and he certainly won't be attacking Trump.
As I posted elsewhere on FreeRepublic - a 30 year old lap dog is going to turn into a pit bull overnight?
Which one of us with a functioning brain is going to believe that that Ron Paul is the “real” Ron Paul?
“Paul reminds me of a pissant with an erection, floating downriver on a leaf crying Raise The Drawbridge!”
What a FANTASTIC political cartoon that would make! Could put almost any of the 15 dwarfs names on the ant. Could also have one with a string of ant-leaves with 15 names. Maybe with a GIANT, muscular ant and leaf with a GIANT battering ram at the end of the string labeled Trump, with Trump saying “Draw bridges never stop ME!”. Draw bridge could be labeled pretty much anything you like, say, “Primaries”.
“Did he attack Trump? Im too lazy to go back and listen.”
Yeah, but I forget the attack. I do remember that Trump came back at Paul with a remark about how much money Paul had been happy to accept from Trump, and Paul froze like a deer in the headlights with his mouth stuck open, and couldn’t come up with a retort, not even “Your mother wears army boots”.
All of the 10 voted for Iran to nuke the USA (The Corker bill)
Ted Cruz tried to water the Corker Bill down.. and Mike Lee..
When a Bill will past anyway— what do you do but try to hamstring it..
But telling you this is waste.. you have NO idea of HOW Washington D.C. actually “WORKS”.. especially Congress..
OR you do know and are a TROLL.. one or the other..
Rand reminds me of Eddie Haskell from leave it to beaver. He always says what he thinks the adults want to hear, doesn’t matter if 30 mins. ago he made a speech saying the exact opposite.
