Sen. Rand Paul, Kentucky Republican, warned Friday that Senate Republicans will “destroy the party” if they vote to convict President Trump.
Mr. Paul, who previously condemned the U.S. Capitol rioting and voted against objections to the 2020 presidential election, said one-third of voters would leave if Senate Republicans get behind the “insane and wrongheaded” impeachment push.
“Look, I didn’t agree with the fight that happened last week, and I voted against overturning the election, but at the same time, the impeachment is a wrongheaded, partisan notion,” said Mr. Paul on Fox’s “The Ingraham Angle.” “But if Republicans go along with it, it’ll destroy the party.”
“A third of the Republicans will leave the party,” Mr. Paul said. “This isn’t about, anymore, about the Electoral College, it’s about the future of the party, and whether you’re going to ostracize and excommunicate President Trump from the party. Well, guess what? Millions of his fans will leave as well.”

The party is dead, Rand.
Too late Rand, the Republican party already destroyed itself.
“Too late, Rand. Certifying a brazenly stolen election 93-7 in the GOP controlled Senate is what destroys a party”
You should tweet that to him directly. Simple and powerful.
Smart move. We need a new party. Like the Whigs became the Republicans in the mid 19th century , it's time for a change from the republicans
I am waiting for the MAGA party Rand, and If you want to stay on that shinking ship with Mitt, Mitch and the Boys, knock yourself out.
Hey Rand, the DC GOP have already destroyed the party.
Rand has shown himself to be Mitch’s bitch, let him stay on that sinking ship of the GOP.
Senate Republicans have done their best to destroy the party for some time. What’s one more nail in the coffin?
Rand Paul is only setting up the story line to appease the GOP Voters in order to keep them on the GOP Plantation.
Namely, look here GOP voters the Senate did not convict Trump, so now all is well and you can go back to sleep until the 2022 elections and vote us back in since we stopped the Trump conviction.
“””I have already deplatformed the Republican party from my voter registration”””
I deplatformed the GOP four weeks ago and now I am working on getting my friends to do the same.
No problemo, Rando.
They can just switch over to the dem party. And, they won’t even have to change their political stance.
“ When did we leapfrog over the serious issue of even legally conducting a trial after President Trump is out of office?”
He and Cruz try sometimes. Then tgey come in against the president. Then they try to help but tgey don’t know Trump tgey don’t know what he is doing. They get in the way.
The GOP is over.
Rand is tone deaf
“Will” destroy?
Cruz and Paul try to fake like they are helping without really helping.
They are both frauds.
I agree.
Rand has shown himself to be Mitch’s bitch, let him stay on that sinking ship of the GOP.
He really has. I suspect in the end the TV conservatives like Rand wanted no part of this fight because they thought it was to the benefit of Donald Trump. Their jealousy Trumps all. They should have guessed that telling much of your most active voter base to ESAD is not a way to win their future elections. Rand is equally as culpable as China Mitch here, IMO.
Don’t lose your cool, folks, no matter what happens. Remember to assess your local political and business situations and start there, at home. The are much more peaceful ways to make powerful changes.
Turn the cancel culture against those who started it. But make absolutely sure that there is proof in regards to each individual to be unemployed (e.g., multiple witnesses to the person ranting against President Trump or conservatives, written statements, counterculture behaviors, drugs, etc.). Conservative men at work, it would be advisable to rid yourselves of the Dorsey beards, earlobe plugs, lunch lady buns on the tops of your heads, etc. ;)
“Let the republican party die.”
Ha!! Right. We could suggest a coup de grace.. but why waste a perfectly good bullet on a corpse?
If Dems can steal elections with complicit R’s, what’s left to “destroy”?
