Yes, Rand is basically a good guy… At times he is a little bit “off the wall”… But, give him credit, he has been doing and saying what the spineless g.o.p. should have been doing and saying.
I fully expect Rand did laugh, and is still laughing about Trump’s comment… And, I sincerely hope he (Rand) didn’t “learn his lesson”…
However, I note he is Senator from Kentucky, also the home State of McConnell, the arch enemy.
Frankly, I just don’t trust him, not to be a false, stalking horse.
After all, the Rino ‘trick’ is to SAY things we believe, in c-span broadcast hearings, Sunday a.m. talk shows, etc. but then to stab us in the back when it counts. Shades of Trey Goudy.
Like Father Like Son… All TALK and NO real ACTION….

Rand Paul talks a good talk but he could have forced the Senate into recess at ANY time from 2018-2020 and he didn’t do it! He deferred to Cocaine Mitch and refused to allow the President to make ANY recess appointments and who knows how different our country might look right now if he had done it!
Until he addresses that issue, and publicly apologizes for it, I will continue to believe that he is another Darrell Issa, Trey Gowdy, Miss Linda, etc “All sound and fury” Republicans, who signify NOTHING!!
Phooey. Life is tough. Everyone complains about Mitch but no one crosses him. They are losing the Country to China Mitch and everyone is going to be sorry, even Dr. Rand Paul.
Trump didn’t diss Mitch, heaped all kinds of praise on him, endorsed him. Only at the bitter end did he say something and Mitch wasn’t the only one Trump cozied up to.
Imo each person is unique and each situation is unique and complex so I recoil from appeals for one standard that fits all people and situations.
My take: President Trumps Realpolitik calculus included knowing that after each House Impeachment by the Democrats, Mitch was in charge of whether President Trump was removed and replaced by Swamp Embed Pence or not. If Trump was removed he could NEVER run for or hold any federal office.
President Trump knew how tempting removal would be and was savvy enough not to give Mitch a reason to be that duplicitous; a reason FAUX News could get their normies to buy. A McCain 2.0 or Cruz 2.0 lie ie that the treachery was excusable because of Meanie Trump.
Remember FAUX hadn’t committed blatant election fukkery yet so Republican normies were still under the FAUX News spell.
Now we are in a civil war for control of the Republican party. This is part of a world war we are fighting with the Cult Death Globalists who want to destroy us and America then move on to enslave humanity.
Hopefully Rand got Trumps message that its now time to pick sides. This is not about politics. Its about survival. Team Gandalf or Team Sauron. Team God or Team Satan.
AndTime for Rand to wake up, get serious and choose. He now knows President Trump WILL let us know what choices Rand makes from now on; choices that used to remain hidden. Lol.
I’m personally rather curious as to why Senator Paul never bother to as Dr. Fauci about all the associated side effects associated with the vaccines, especially ADE antibody dependent enhancement. Why is it that all other drugs have to disclose their side effects and not this experimental drug? And when did he know it?
Most doctors are loving all the vaccines.
Rand Paul is an opthalmologist.
I wonder how knowledgable he is about vaccines.
All I know is that he had covid & grew a beard.
Most people assume the mRNA vaccine works like the vaccines from the 80s & produces antibodies like dead virus vaccines used to do. So, they don’t understand how this untested injection is vastly different from any previous vaccine administered. And, that’s why so many are willing to have their kids get it. They have no idea.
Plus, they don’t hear all the horror stories of myocarditis & other harmful effects this injection causes.
Yes, and you could add to that list Marsha Blackburn, Ted Cruz, Richard Shelby, Mike Lee, John Kennedy, ad nauseum, NONE of whom did anything to stop the obvious fraud and who acquiesced in surrendering the nation to foreign-directed Marxists. It would have only taken ONE of them. Do NOT ever, ever, trust any of them. If you’re stuck, go ahead and give them a meaningless vote which will be discarded anyway. But don’t give them money. Complicit with treason, all of them.
Thank you! That’s pretty much how I see it! I am old, and somewhat cynical, but I am beyond tired of people who promise that they are with us but who never seem to actually follow through on any of their promises. I fully expect to hear that OJ has caught the “real killer” before any Republicans ever actually challenge the status quo…
So, you are cynical about government behavior here but not about OJ? Might they have gotten that wrong as well? Be wary of all institutional narratives…
Did you miss the quotes around “real killer”? The case, from a purely legal standpoint was an unmitigated disaster and Marcia Clark was an idiot of a prosecutor. OJ had excellent lawyers and they planted enough of a “reasonable doubt” in the minds of the jurors that the verdict was actually “just” in the eyes of the law. But, do I believe for one moment that OJ Simpson did not brutally murder his ex-wife and Ronald Goldman? Please – I said I was cynical, NOT stupid!
This is what they invented that phrase “bless his heart” for. A tad (mountain sized, cough, cough) behind the curve but don’t worry, no one else misread that.
I stupidly gave a lot of money to Marsha in particular, even during her primary. Really irritated that she fooled us all. But those days are over, my resources now are better allocated elsewhere.
I too woke up and realized it’s ALL talk no action with mini Rand.
He is a snake.
AND he tweeted about the fraud, yet did NOTHING on the Senate floor to challenge it.
Al Gore had all kinds of challenges and these bribed hacks did nothing.
I hear Rand saying all the right things.
And check the record.
He has done NOTHING. Nothing for the people. His dad never had any bills go through and Rand is on par with that.
I don’t know what his game is but all I care about now is what a person does. Particularly when they HAVE the power we GAVE them.
I’m constantly trying to quote him but I feel betrayed as I do since I know he’ll yack it up about the Fauci fruad but where are the arrests?
You’re saying he funded mass murder and LIED about it Rand.
And you’re really going to do nothing? Is this for real here? You’re using a mass murdering fraud with provable lying before Congress and not gathering together massive legal action with daily demands for it on the Senate floor.
What is he waiting for?
I see nothing from him.
And best believe, Rand. You don’t get HIGHER office for doing nothing in the lower one. So don’t even embarrass this nation with another stab at a run for POTUS. You are an outed do nothing fraud and need to slither home unless and until you man up and do your duties.
Well, in his dad’s case who among the GOP was going to vote for Ron Paul’s bill to, for example , audit the Fed? He was only one member. Think if Donald Trump was one of 435 Congressman. What could he have accomplished? . . . . No, the GOP and MSNBCNNFOX all told us Ron Paul was a “nut.” And many on here were probably cheering them on. Pathetic.
What a great friend. Just like the rest. Scared they gonna get beat if they stand for a common sense principal. None of the replicans allowed President Trump to appoint anyone that he wanted. Always had to be their picks. I call BULL on you all.
Oh, I agree that anyone else in the Senate COULD have and SHOULD have done it but Rand Paul has been very vocal about his supposed support of President Trump and he did NOT do it. I am equally frustrated by all of the others but this post is about Senator Paul specifically so that is who I mentioned in my comments…
Rand drew the “designated opposition” card. He *talks* a good conservative game, when there’s no power in the minority to back it up. But when it’s time to actually flip the tables in the Temple of government, he’s nowhere to be found. Rather, he can be found chatting with the money lenders, bringing in cash for the RNC.
Excellent explanation!! A role Miss Linda has played to the T for years…wonder how this investigation into the Kavanaugh accusations is going? Boy howdy, he was gonna git to the bottom of THAT whole thing, wasn’t he?
Yup….he really knows how to whack those on his own team….
he even picks his own team of losers: tillerson, mattis, kavanaugh, frey.
And then he loses to the other team: Bobby Mueller, Comey, and even Chrissy Wallace.
But. What the hay! Did he show Rand Paul.
Pathetic.
I don’t understand why so many people still do not get the Tillerson pick. Tillerson was an oil insider who knew everyone in the Middle East. Tillerson opened all the doors. There would have been no sword dance without Tillerson. And then you move on.
I agree. Tillerson was part of the establishment but I viewed the pick as President Trump expanding his rolotex in the Middle East. All of Tillerson’s contacts became Trump’s contacts.
Tillerson eventually fired & Trump retains the contacts. lol
Right. And I guess John thinks Trump should have been psychic and known the true motives of the thousands of fakers and frauds in DC…. as if John himself wasn’t initially fooled by Mattis and Kavanaugh.
How about the Sessions pick, the Barre pick, Kavanaugh pick, Mattis, Wray, do we really need to go through Homeland Security and every stinking other department?
The reason we are in this mess is because this idiot used his daughter and her husband as primary advisors and failed to do what even this senile old bat in office was capable of doing, and that was CLEANING HOUSE ON DAY ONE! That’s precisely why this man was incapable of mustering up any help while everyone in this country watched on November 3, 2020 the theft and demise of this country.
You conveniently fail to mention the fact any person President Trump supported and might have wanted approved, had to be approved by the VERY PEOPLE you cite should have been “Cleaned Out” on day one!!
Those same individuals that should have been cleaned out on “DAY ONE” are now given positions in, or allow others to be, appointed in the Senile old man’s gubmint.
Bannon wasn’t dumped by Trump. Bannon wanted out. Could do more on the outside. Who knows if PDJT continued to consult with Bannon after he left the WH. Most likely Trump did. Bannon has a lot of down to earth … wisdom.
Who hires appointees? The SENATE HIRES APPOINTEES or refuses to hire them.
Please stop spreading the Establishments disinfo. The Establishment was and still is desperate to undermine confidence in PDJT by blaming him for their refusal to hire people he wanted.
Who could President Trump hire? Answer: Only personal staff such as a press secretary.
Huh? Well then who hired everyone in President Trumps administration? Answer: The utterly corrupt, SENATE HIRES EVERYONE. The Senate refused to even give an initial job interview to some people PDJT wanted.
Trumps revenge? Letting the Senate hire valuable long time Swamp assets. Elevating them. Using them. Then tweet firing them once he’d scoped out their networks and allies but before they got too embedded.
Before Trump, firing people on “your team” was not the DC way. Lol. Think how many Swamp Rats Trump turned from Republican heroes to zeroes. Trump destroyed their ability to be “influencers” forever. God bless him.
Dont forget Armarosa, Amy Coney Barrett, Christopher Wray and Rod Rosenstein. All put into positions by PDT John Kelly and Kristen Nielsen. And, not appointing Kobach as head of DHS . Instead we got that Wolfe clown. General Milley, Mike Esper and the list of disastrous picks goes on. I can love Trump but still hate a bunch of his personnel choices.
At least he tried. He can only do so much and is only the president. Draining the sewer is going to require the help of almost Americans and almost all of Congress.

Thank you for confirming my suspicion of Rand Paul.
He only starts talking about stuff when it comes close to election and nothing he talks about ever amounts to anything.
He should forever go down as the idiot who admitted there was election fraud and then of course certifies the Far Left Biden to take control of the country anyway.
Trump is gently telling all who still fall for the lies to wake up.
Would like to hear him call out Mark Meadows too.

Rand reminds me a lot of Trey Gowdy, a showboater that does very little. Trump’s statement is vintage-Trump, and hilarious. Lmao
60 Minutes years back did a special on it. They leave their official offices, walk a few blocks to a fancy office building, go sit in s small cubicle… and talk to “constituents” – all – day – long. $$$$ Little 3 minute conversations with notes on a computer screen that say…
Betty – abortion rights – 5k
Tom – 2nd Amendt – 20k
Darryl- xyz passage – 10k
Rand Paul has been targeted multiple times with physical violence:
1) the baseball shooting
2) rib-breaking assaulting neighbor
3) BLM mobs in DC
4) how was it that Rand Paul had Covid before anyone else in Congress?
If he is careful in picking his battles, I can understand that. I appreciate his courage when he stands up for us, and hope I will have courage also if time and place demand it.
President Trump, win or lose, has exhibited massive courage and I will be forever grateful no matter what
Excellent points! I had forgotten what he’s gone through personally.
I’m not looking for perfection…I hate it when we eat our own at every opportunity. What person fighting in the arena wants to put up with supporters like that?
I’ve never seen him do that in terms of USING his office and power
AOC has accomplished more
I don’t see Rand getting any of the Paul family issues shoved into these trillion dollar bills like an audit of the fed
Yet AOC gets an implosion of our way of life in there
What has Rand ever done?
He was mistargeted by the Left who have no idea his words have never accomplished anything which is unfortunate but a loud do nothing yapper is borderline worse than a quiet guy who slips in something needed every so often
I would define “gravitas” as “dignity.” Second definition.
“Seriousness”, first definition, works for The Don.
“Solemnity in demeanor” less so.
But if you mean “cajones”
The Don sure has that.
“Weight” or “Drag” would also apply—“gravity.”
“Substance” is also part of that 3rd definition.
Which pretty much nails it,
got to agree with you there.
Ironic, but predictable, that his opponents confuse and conflate his Style with his Substance and accuse him of being merely a demagogue. While simultaneously hating him for what they instinctively recognize as his genuine and uncompromising AMERICAN substance.
Sen.Rand Paul is doing his part to save our children from the Democrats…
“Local bureaucrats and union bosses — we will not allow you to do more harm to our children again this year.
Children are not at any more risk from COVID than they are for the seasonal flu.
Every adult who works in schools has either had the vaccine or had their chance to.
There is no reason for mask mandates, part time schools, or any lockdown measures…
If a school system attempts to keep the children from full-time, in-person school, I will hold up every bill with two amendments. One to defund them, and another to allow parents the choice of where the money goes for their child’s education.”
Everyone said (or tacitly acknowledged) his yapping is stellar, which is how you throw the scent of your do nothing Gowdy-ness off.
Since you sound like you research this yapping hyena can you please summarize a heroic ACTION he ACCOMPLISHED?
(Summarized quickly, then link to the proof so we can see if legit or not)
–Because he also said and proved Fauci is a mass murderer funding Dr. Death and lied to Congress yet I see no arrests and not even losing his job.
–So quality yapping isn’t the issue here.
–Please demonstrate where he DID something.
And I genuinely want to compare what he’s accomplished compared to what he has outed
I’ve seen him OUT the fact we were disenfranchised, mass murdered, economy ruined on purpose and trillions in theft and waste
If all he’s gotten accomplished is a post office naming or something he is a colossally worthless Gowdy
In fact it’s even worse because when you KNOW what is happening and you WITNESS the inaction that deliberately adds to throwing people into learned helplessness which is an actual tactic of these satanic evil pieces of trash who study how to disempower the people. Wicked to not use your office to give the people some hope and some wins.
AND he even has whole days and presentations and joke threads about all the fraud and scams we’re under as he does zero. He’s a piece of work.
Proposed amendments to a bill only hold up the bill long enough for the Senate to vote on the amendment.
Does anyone believe another “Republican” Senator would not suddenly fall “Ill” and allow the “Lock Step” democrat Senators to steamroll the amendments?
Does anyone believe Senator Paul does not know this?
It was Trump who choose Mattis, McMaster and Kelly. All three very poor choices to put it mildly. I think it was because of his high school crush on Generals. He did get over it though.
Errr….seems to me the system has been established for a long time and most of the people in it are there because they support it. So where was President Trump supposed to find people who opposed the status quo who also had the experience, guts and the clout to go against the bureaucracy – and BTW – people who could even be approved for the job?
However, I wondered what happened with Rex Tillerson? I read that he called Javinka “The Royal Family” and recall that T-Rex got fired right after his 60 minutes interview. I’m not saying POTUSDJT was perfect but who is??? Even though his technique, in a completely new environment, might have needed a bit of refinement, and he had road blocks continually blocking his agenda, he was right on the REALLY important issues.
I’m sorry but we were supposed to know even our generals are garbage?
I feel quite confident every Conservative I know was under the impression the military is pretty heroic.
You go look at the internet in the days Trump re-hired Mattis
His rep was “Mad Dog Mattis” and it was of a General McCarthur mixed with John Wayne mixed with a little Jack Nicholson but the good version
There were all his sayings which were these hardcore but witty things. This is NOT one of them but they were similar to the famous “The point of war is not to die for your country, but to get the other poor ba$tard to die for his.”
It was all stuff like that. Really, the guy as far as a little Duck Duck going went was a cool character
Trump went in and ended up shining a flashlight on these cockroaches
I’m sorry, but traitors know how to hide and de-cloak. And until we got a guy actually fighting for us we could not see the extent of the infestation.
So now we know the leadership is back to the old Catch 22 days PLUS a side of evil, satanism and treachery like Reichstag Milley
Kinda explains our 70 years straight of war losing against 3rd world dirt dumps with the greatest military the world has ever known.
A lot of us who have been in the military know that it is not necessarily heroic. I knew Mattis was full of shart when I read his bio after Trump appointed him. My fears were confirmed.
Anything from 0-4 upwards broadly becomes exponentially more political.
Mattis has long since transitioned from soldier to politician, and should be treated as such.
Mattis had been groomed by the Swamp to be a presidential candidate and/or a splitter candidate for some time so Trump MOABed one of the Swamps most treasured assets. Now they can’t even use him as an influencer.
Btw Trump used Matrix to get the Swamp to pass his huge defense bill . The bill was padded to give Trump enough $$$ for the wall that Trump knew the Swamp would never fund.
The Swamp counted on their guy Matt is to block Trump from using military $$$ for the wall. They NEVER thought Trump would have the balls to fire frikkin Mad Dog Matrix and risk alienating his military and patriotic base. Lol. They were wrong.
thank you. Sorry, I was a gullible rube back in 2015. i thought Mueller and Comey were honorable men. They was FBI wasn’t they? I thought our Generals were honorable men. Remember Schwatzkopf or Eisenhower? Sure, maybe some were D’s and some were R’s but they were all patriots and America First.
They were Generals after all. And while I thought Ryan and McConnell were GOPe, why they’d support Trump because he was a Republican and was in favor of 90% of what they believed in. So what if they disagreed on immigration or trade policy.
And the DOJ? well sure there were plenty of leftwing lawyers, but they still believed in the rule of lasw.
And man, was I wrong! Trump caused a LOT of masks to fall. He ripped the mask off DC corruption. and exposed these people for what they are – Globalist, Selfish DC insiders, (and some of them) Lying leftists.
Believing one can read Presidents mind or an insider familiar with his thinking is a serious red flag suggesting the need for a mental health check up. Or too much time watching and trusting manipulatives. Either way, best wishes on a quick return to reality.
The difference? Trump backed a less than perfect Republican rather than letting a Democrat get elected. Even the worst Rino counts towards determining who’s in control. Its a TEAM “SPORT”.
Rand got called out for funding a Republican candidate AFTER President Trump had endorsed someone. The race was being hyped by the Media as a test of Trumps kingmaker status and whether the Establishment should seek his endorsement or embrace MAGA. Everything was on the line. Rand betrayed Trump with his attempted sabotage on behalf of Mitch and the Establishment. Fortunately MAGA voters came thru with a huuuge win from Trumps pick.
Trump just put Rand on notice using a teasing tone.
Hopefully Rand remembers that PDJT is one of the worlds most famous apex predators renowned for his obsession with getting revenge on disloyal people no matter how long it takes.
Still trying to get confirmation on this story. It has been swirling around for a few days now but is it confirmed that Alberta has actually rescinded ALL their mandates?
I think ALberta, saskawatkawn and Manitoba should just leave Canada. Its not like they have to be part of Canada or they’ll be swallowed up by the USA.
I’m not Canadian (although there’s always hope) and I don’t know how the $$ flows from Ottawa to these proviences, but even if these places are getting more $$ than they give, they should still leave. Self respect is more important than $$
He likes him BECAUSE he is a different kind of guy.
So is The Don.

I prefer people who are independent thinkers.
Going along with Mitch McConnell didn’t help Trump did it?
So what if Rand Paul endorsed someone other than who Trump wanted.
I liked a lot of what Trump said and some of what Trump did but there’s also a lot that Trump left unsaid and he left undone.
Right now he’s needling Rand Paul?
That’s where he thinks the attention needs to be directed?
Dems consistently destroy Republicans because they stick together behind their leadership. Trump is the Leadership and Rand Paul needs to get behind him or step aside.
Hey osi…it is my opinion that nobody in the senate can be trusted as long as China Mitch is in one of the leader positions. He controls the money and who gets elected/re-elected. Rand also worked against us in the Ditch Mitch effort…forget that at your own peril. I’m happy when Rand agrees and helps us, but I certainly don’t trust him.
All the old ones that have been in congress need to go. Therein that’s the problem. 20-30 yes. Give me a break. Im old too, so please get out. Give someone else with new ideas for this country. Y’all tired.
Needling Rand isn’t the point—keeping focus on OHio 15 is. Anyone who participated in trying to knock out Trump’s endorsed candidate is fair game. That includes Rand.
Trump’s goal is to demonstrate—repeatedly—that he can force the GOP to reckon with him.
That comparison doesn’t work for me. President Trump was representing the executive branch and McConnell part of the legislative branch.
It makes perfect sense for President Trump to do his best to negotiate and work with McConnell. I don’t fault President Trump for the legislative branch’s unwillingness or inability to get stuff done. Especially the first two year of his term, the blame falls squarely with McConnell and Ryan.
Flush out all the RINO’s, wannabe RINO’s and Swamp Critters. It’s going to take a solid group of MAGA candidates to effect change.
Paul is entertaining but I’ve been disappointed more often than not. Delivery is good, results are much better.
agreed…but there IS Paul’s own reelection bid coming up…don’t overlook that.
this isn’t just petty slapshot.
trump is saying 199 percent crystal clear:
rand, this is your chance to make it VERY clear to your constituents, that you are maga and will fall line and do your level best to destroy the enemy a support patriots.
it’s now or never.
trump is not subtle.
he has nuance but it comes packaged in a 50 pound cinder block.
I can assure you, rand Paul is taking notice and having his staff focus on what he can do between now and election day to persuade president Trump to back him up
this is simple arithmetic. .rand Paul KNOWS how to add
by marginalizing his power, first at the state level AND simultaneously booting his beach friend Rino’s out not the Senate (and house).
McConnell’s power (which is unchallenged) can be reduced if we can get senators elected who have the right stuff.
and then, there is always the old school way and show some tapes years ago when he was rough with women…that seems to be the trend…it doesn’t have to be true…
Thanks for asking questions!! Answers: Yes, getting along with Mitch pre J20 did help Trump and us.alot Realpolitik savvy.
Yes Trump does think his attention needs to be on Rands snek moves in Ohio and he’s ABSOLUTELY correct.
Winning the civil war being waged right now for control of the Republican party and the survival of MAGA is his #1 focus. Its not yours?
Btw Rand’s endorsement was designed to help crush Trump and MAGA quickly so the Establishment could regain control of the primaries and make sure Swamp picks are elected in 2022.
For sentients Rand’s betrayal is a huuuge “so what”. So glad President Trump gave us a heads up of GOP treachery and Rand such a public warning.

President Trump does not hold back his feelings, that’s what I love most about him. ????
Good. We are at war; war to prevent our destruction, the American Republics destruction and the introduction of an inescapable world wide gulag for all of humanity.
Civilian normies, especially females, often do not understand or like the warrior behavior that’s necessary to save them from unspeakable horrors. That’s fine as long as they don’t interfere or get in the way.
As Trump said in a famous 2020 tweet “I’m just trying to stop the world from killing itself”.
I’m praying he succeeds and helping as much as I can. Hopefully you are too.

Trump has a way of reprimanding his friends, while still saying they are his friend, for sure.
Normally, I would say this was unnecessary. The purpose of primaries is to battle it out for the best candidate to move forward…no one is really be an enemy here.
Rand wants to defund the Democrats.. and this might work ….
“We don’t have to accept the mandates, lockdowns, and harmful policies of the petty tyrants and feckless bureaucrats. We can simply say no, not again.
Speaker Nancy Pelosi — you will not arrest or stop me or anyone on my staff from doing our jobs.
We have all either had COVID, had the vaccine, or been offered the vaccine.
We will make our own health choices. We will not show you a passport, we will not wear a mask, we will not be forced into random screening and testing so you can continue your drunk with power rein over the Capitol. ‘
Blah blah blah. All words. Meanwhile what was Rand doing? Rand was in Ohio campaigning against Trumps candidate.
He was trying to give the Globalist Machine the story they craved. ‘Trump endorsed MAGA candidate defeated’ ‘The Republican Establishment is returning to “sanity” and can safely ignore Trump and MAGA for the rest of the primaries and then the 2022 general election’ ‘Trump fails. Republicans reject his candidate’
They were salivating in anticipation. Thank God MAGA voters came thru bigly and crushed the schemers malevolent dreams. Rand and the Swamp btfo. Trump will NOT be merciful with Rand ever again. Thank God.
Rand has been one of the very few pushing back on mandates and Fauci. Is it kabuki? IDK, but maybe I am still naive in believing that there are some MDs who care about people’s health and well being. I would much prefer an alliance between these two on COVID. Make it happen at rallies.
Not saying Rand was right in his support of that candidate, just saying that for me this is petty BS and my priority is maintaining our personal choices without being threatened with losing jobs and everything else they are getting away with. Very sad
with fauci, it isn’t Kabuki…it could be much more effective however…as noted in a prior thread weeks back, I stated my team supplied rand Paul’s staff with critical amplifying FACTs…he has no excuse from this lint forward to take the sword from the scabbard.
we’ll be watching him.
carefully
because it’s important to get this right and tell the entire whole truth.
gloves are off…time for people to start sweating they will be exposed for their complicity on the dangerous work if chimera bat virus and gain of function.
spoiler:. we KNOW this virus was designed.
we KNOW fauci and a host of complete fools made that work possible.
it won’t put the virus back in a cage, but the end game is to have an INTERNATIONAL sanction on ALL GAIN OF FUNCTION RESEARCH.
Thank you for this information, your efforts in getting into, hopefully, the right hands. Pray the light will shine on the truth. IMO, nothing is more important at this time.
he occupies a seat, with a large voting following.
we will use him to usurp a larger problem without insulting and humiliating his voters…the goal is to steer Paul into a tight lane working on goals that usher in a larger sweep of maga benchmarks.
then we will toss him .
and he’ll do it.
Paul IS independent minded, but first and last, he needs help to get himself reelected.
noting…I recall president Trump “working” other jackwagons with good results. his words toward Paul left no doubts in my mind what he expects Paul to do for his support.
ironically…of Paul fulfills those key things… he’ll become even more popular with his donors and supporters.
president Trump doesn’t mess around…he knows how to win
Paul knows how to win, but he’s never experienced trump level winning. I’ve a feeling he will like the feeling…alot!?
We are in a war for our survival. Without Gods help the American Republic is gone and humanity enters an inescapable gulag run by Cult Death Globalists.
Trump is our general. He is the ONLY human who might be able to help us escape Cult Deaths nightmarish schemes that we see unfolding.
If we accept Trumps leadership and embrace the spirit of our ancestors, we MAY survive to pass the torch of freedom on.
As the patriots during our first American Revolution said, “We hang TOGETHER and win or lose and hang seperately”.
If we fail to recognize that the fate of the world depends on our choices then as we ” lose and hang separately ” those who have pinned their last hopes on us will curse the fools like Rand and those who supported his privileged arrogant superficiality that allowed Cult Death to plunge the world into darkness.
We are at war with Cult Death fighting for our survival and the survival of humanity. These primaries aren’t normie political games right now.Anyone who goes against a Trump endorsed candidate during this war is an ENEMY siding with Cult Death. I’ll pray for them and love them as a child of God. I will also despise their choices and seek to thwart them just as I would react to any threat to everything God has entrusted to my care. Hopefully Rand wakes up asap. He’s in danger of being utterly crushed as a terrifying lesson to ALL Republican smugs.

I agree that Ran Paul is a fake. All talk and no cattle. You’d think after literally being aasaulted by the Left, he’d be less of wishy washy moderate, but they never learn.
This is a promise from Sen. Rand Paul … “President Biden — we will not accept your agencies’ mandates or your reported moves toward a lockdown. No one should follow the CDC’s anti-science mask mandates. And if you want to shutdown federal agencies again — some of which aren’t even back to work fully — I will stop every bill coming through the Senate with an amendment to cut their funding if they don’t come to work. “
Notice Rand did not say how long his amendments would stop each one of President Biden’s bills from passing. Did you imagine the bill was stopped until Rand got his way for “us”? Lol. Nope. Only until the Senate quickly voted to reject Rand’s latest PR stunt.
While most of us are laughing and cheering this and having fun, there is a strategic reason for it …just like his “mean tweets.” It’s not petty, it is purposeful. Look deeper.
LOL
God forbid we have direct, honesty in politics.
And thank God for the lessons with the Lapdog Media.
Our eyes are wide open. We can never unsee the Swamp.
Yes but never forget if a replacement his equal is not in place when he vacates we would win the battle but lose the war as FL is a must win for the GOP with the present electoral makeup.
They have tried all California tricks possible.
Legalize felon voting
Swamp with illegals
All out fraud in blue areas most famously and ridiculously Palm Beach
Legal challenges up to the unreliable Supremes
106% of the vote in a St. Lucie country precinct for Oblowme
So all I can think of is Don Jr.
But we can’t make mistakes anymore
Even the Keystone Communists can win with this degree of corruption, vote stuffing if we make stupid blunders like getting the only one saving FL out before the job is done.
But Trump POTUS, De Santis VP, then De Santis POTUS is pretty magical sounding if FL is secure
They are the most perfect balance for each other ever
Trump needs detail and deeper dives, De Santis has it
De Santis isn’t 3 D jumping off the screen the way Trump does
They’d be epic if we don’t mess up and vacate FL governorship
Simping for the DC Establishments choice just like good old Meghan McCain on the View? Malevolent duper or one of the naives that they’ve duped? Either way, wishing you a speedy recovery. Trump 2024.

I hope it was in good fun and Rand Paul took it that way. Last thing we need now is allies fighting. Be kind of like if America and England started fighting in 1942.
the US balked at the “invitation” early on and numerous times…
WHAT DID change the decision…?
That is a very important question that “history” doesn’t quite explain.
spoiler: there was an agreement about how trade and Europe would be divided up, well before the actual declaration of war. the US wasn’t eager to re engage another world war in Europe after the ww1 because prior deals.never materialized.
when we say to the victor goes the spoils of war, isn’t a cliche…it’s the very currency that cinches the deal

I’m sure Rand plays ball with the senior senator from Kentucky every body’s favorite RINO decepticon Mitch McConnell. But Rand on the RINO meter is no where near Mitch the snake. Love him or hate him every now and then Rand will stand up and show he can be useful. Mitch on the other hand is obligated to his Chinese overlords and globalist masters. I’m guessing the million he wasted was funneled from Mitch, and Trump gets the last laugh.
We can afford to throw Rand Paul overboard just like we threw Tucker Carlson and Krist Neom and Matt Geetz overboard and some others I can’t remember off the top. We can afford to do this because we are so powerful, and have so many friends in powerful political positions and so many big voices in the media, we can afford to be choosy. We don’t need them at all.
I know this to be true because I called up DNC HQ and they told me so.
Rand thru himself overboard and so did the rest!
people like him and the rest are the reason we have a problem like this in the first place!
democrats in republican clothing
insanity is repeating the same thing over and over and expecting a different outcome!
replace the dead wood with something that shows a sign of life!!
every incumbent should have a target on them
especially in the Senate!!
I have posted numerous factual, historical examples of why Tucker is not our friend and is dangerous and won’t list them here again.
The latest example is him helping to launch JD Vance’s OH Senate campaign.
JD is a Never Trump fraud who was injected into the race as a splitter to keep OH’s seat UNIPARTY.
This is one of the reasons they throw out some MAGA breadcrumbs every now and then…so they can fool people when important things come up. It is Fox’s raison d’etre!
Well-stated on both, Hope.
Apropos that Tucker shows up in a Rand Paul discussion.
I’m done with being encouraged by the occasional bone Tucker throws MAGA while playing the injured, I’m being spied on card. No **** Sherlock, we all are being spied on and your own darned network had it happen during Obama with James Rosen. I’m not buying the “you’re one of us” gig you’re trying to sell.
Noem lost me when she didn’t stand up on the transgender athletes issue. It’s been a steady decline since and yukking it up with Boehner is the final nail in the coffin.
Although I’ve missed your posts I agree totally and have posted some things too.
By the way, we have NEVER trashed Matt Goetz so the guy is just spouting straw men.
It’s another trick.
You list a bunch of people we actually rightfully trashed like Noem, then throw in someone who we never have as a total fib.
And people here are split anyway on Tucker.
I am anti Tucker because I watched him and Mann Coulter try the lie of the century to pretend we lost the election and white men abandoned Trump. It’s just a stone cold lie.
But if he says something truthful to the FOX audience it’s good to know what they’re “allowing” to be heard as bait for him to use to gain false trust before turning again.
And are they trying to say more blacks voted for Bribed-en than Obama which was also in those ridiculous numbers? When are Mann Coulter and Tucker going to address the absolute nonsense of those numbers.
But anyway, it’s a classic move where you throw in someone who doesn’t fit that makes your pattern look bad for the other side.
We have to and must actually throw the bums out.
Exactly what is wrong with posting a person’s public record while in office of Faux noise that betrays their lies when you have a country to save.
Give me a break. RINO protection at its finest.

No republican is a good republican who spent four years letting President Trump get slammed. Count on your thumbs the good ones.
Ya know,I come here every single day, mostly to be encouraged by Sundance,who NEVER fails to explain in great detail, why Donald J. Trump is truly the only man in the country who can rescue us from the attempted Socialist/Communist takeover of our country.
We are barely hanging on, and when we’re starting to lose our grip, Sundance comes here and shows us why we have to hold the line and keep fighting. He does the research and writing, and sometimes, all but begs us to stay the course.
Then I read some of these snide, snarky remarks written by armchair experts about Trump, the one man who’s literally been through the fire for US, and I want to throw something at someone.
What the hell else do you whiners want the man to do for us? Some people here are going back to 2016 to find things to criticize him for. Tonight the comments are especially sarcastic.
You people don’t deserve a leader like President Trump. And he deserves better than your half-hearted support.
He deserves at least one page in the whole internet where his supporters can find inspiration, useful facts, and good ideas for ways we can get through this nightmare and restore our rightful President to office.
I’ve never stopped, nor will I ever stop fighting for the greatest President ever! He is the only one who has and continues to fight for this country on a national level with access. Never backed down from a fight and under the current conditions our resolve and tenacity should be more intense than ever. The enemy thinks they will wear us down. Everything they do, makes me stronger. Fight till the last bullet. Die standing rather than live kneeling. Let’s see if the current vermin is willing to risk their lives and those of their loved ones. Hope it doesn’t come to this. If it does, the fate of our country is more than worth that sacrifice. Others paid the price before us. Our time in this world is merely a dress rehearsal.
I’ve been here since 2014. Come here several times a day, every day. Don’t you dare tell me to GTFOH. You better re-read Offcoursenation’s petty comments again.
I was watching an old clip of a comedian roasting Clinton to his face for the same type of behavior. Rand has really got the hang of this. He may never have to mill around with the hoi poloi and see a patient again like gain of function mass murderer Fauci.
Well after his Covid hospital stay and recovery. He was working shifts in the hospital Covid ward.

1. it’s not rand Paul’s money…yes he was fronting a candidate but lets not forget … getting interested citizens to roll 1 million isn’t easy..
it shows people wanted this candidate…that’s called free choice…
2. win or lose, conviction is king in my book…you go with your best judgement, because that’s what you have… only have.
3. there are lots of ways to persuade rand Paul to leap all in with maga…antagonizing him isn’t going to do that. there is a real risk of pissing off constituents… party affiliation these days is delicate….
4. in an era where one size fits all, it’s probably wise to make room for politicians who are good enough..this idea that everyone has to be trump, or desantisn is foolish…it will take generations to create a new party of maga…in the meantime, you USE the people who are most likely to contribute to the cause…that would include rand Paul…not perfect…does not have to be..only needs to be useful.
I love me some President Trump…but if we’ve learned ANYTHING…one man cannot work through every issue…and NOR should we ever desire that.
democracies suck…
poking rand Paul in the eye right now is not a very good strategy…
are we actually talking about replacing him in the up upcoming elections?
nice try. trump endorsed someone, then Paul helped raise $1 million for his opponent. So, what does that mean? It means (1) Paul won’t put his ego in check and work with Trump and MAGA (suprised?) and (2) he’s probably sabotaging us by supporting a RINO.
Why doesn’t Paul work with Trump and endorse and raise $1 Million for someone else? Someone more conservative and MAGA? This is Paul’s M.O. He talks a good game, but his actions are always GOPe
Your analysis is flawed and reminds of the Never-trumper/RINO rhetoric we got before Trump. “We need a big tent” “We have to get the big donors” “We have to reach out to moderates and minorites”. Steele, Romney, McCain, etc. were peddling that loser strategy. Paul needs to get on Team MAGA, and if he won’t then we should replace him. And that’s true of all of them.
We don’t vote for politicans because they have R after their name. We vote for people because they will IMPLEMENT our agenda. Not talk about our agenda during campaign season. There is no point of having a “BIG TENT” when people “IN THE TENT” don’t agree with MAGA policies. Or agree with them, but won’t fight for them.
The RINO’s and GOPe spent 16 years talking about “No purity tests” then Trump came along and suddenly they were in favor of purity tests. So when people start talking about “no purity tests” “we can’t afford to lose and insult people” I wonder where they’ve been since 2015.
we have a minority in the house and senate..we have exactly two governor’s who are fighters.
I can assure you I am NOT big tent, all comers, pollywank.
the circumstances now are quite different than post 2016…
my point is that every effort must be made to work smartly within the existing ranks.
I know full well Paul’s failings.
he has established himself however as THE ONLY SINGLE official in DC to take on doctor Moreau and call him out with some very good facts on national tv
so I trust him…no.
so I think he can be forced to.play ball?
maybe…but I just think it’s going to work.bt mocking him.
that’s my point…I can live with maintaining a maga goal that includes using people like Paul. I’m not fixated on that either.
I just don’t see anyone who would win his seat again at him.
do you? dies anyone have a candidate they believe is even remotely competitive for his seat ?
I think that’s where I stand in this.. I’ll definitely change my mind if we start naming candidates who are well qualified and competitive.
just saying get rid of Paul because he’s not acceptable isn’t going to solve anything….it’s the Congressional Vote you are after!!! and the donor money
“in no small way, by insulting Paul, trump is insulting donors who out up a million clams.”
Ummmm… turn your own argument around. Trump supported his candidate first and Paul attempted to undermine him AND flush a million dollars that could have been used in the general to win.
Think about it. Paul is actively working against the ONLY guy who has the support, the voters, the energy and the machine to bring home the bacon.
If Paul (like Graham and all the other posers) wasn’t too often AWOL when actual votes are needed then I might be fooled.
Trump is a rock star. Only an idiot would not want his mojo on their side. Paul’s desire to push him away says all you need to know.
Now Paul makes sweet noise about what he WANTs to do for COVID. Why on earth do you think he will actually deliver anything but more talk?
Trump is a doer, full stop. The man did not have to contend with the perpetual talk a good game and not deliver crowd until he tried politics.
When he dealt with those that might have tried it as a businessman he could terminate the association.
Politics is different.
I think it’s why he is working so hard now to pave the way to get people in place that share a doing agenda.
Will he be right all the time, nope.
But I expect it’ll be a lot better than supporting the happy to be in the majority and fritter it away crowd. Aka the we like to be the minority and rake in tons of money and really get nothing done but sputter about outrages we have no intention of addressing.
because until NOW he’s not felt the real political maga heat that’s why.
there were never any consequences for Paul’s many terrible decisions.
now that he’s stumping soon fire a reelection bid, trump steps up with the nuance of a hard left jab and outs him squarely on notice.
timing…trump knows ..I am ONLY worried it might send Paul’s voting base and donors into paralysis about becoming full fledged team maga…we can’t afford to have a large number of potential maga team get sullied.
the thing about building maga and expanding it must be done smartly and with great care…
“I am ONLY worried it might send Paul’s voting base and donors into paralysis about becoming full fledged team maga…we can’t afford to have a large number of potential maga team get sullied.”
So no consequences to “Paul’s many terrible decisions” is a good reason for him to stay where he is and keep doing what he’s doing (i.e., screwing us over)?
Here’s a thought: Maybe it’s time to replace Paul with someone who does what’s right for the people, not because he or she is forced to, but because it’s the right thing to do!
I agree, but no matter how bad Paul is, there are about 30 Republican who are worse! Lets get rid of Cheney, Mittens, Colins, Lisa Murkey, Toomey, Barr, Tillis, Sasse, the guy from LA etc. A lot of work for MAGA!
“[H]e’s probably sabotaging us by supporting a RINO.”
This makes you sound paranoid and judgmental.
Why do you imagine Ron Hood is a squish? Did you trouble yourself to read his website before trashing him? Did you follow his political career? Unlike Trump, Ron Hood has been a fighter for gun rights.
“America’s future is on the line. Hate-America leftists are trying to take this country down and go-along-to-get-along career politicians like Liz Cheney and Mitt Romney won’t stop them. Fighters will.
We must fight to build the wall, protect the unborn, defend our gun rights, promote American businesses and bring jobs back, oppose endless war, stop our enemies like China, and defend the American worker!
I am the America First Republican running and I pledge to do just that—never stop fighting for AMERICA FIRST.”
Ron Hood and Rand Paul have been impugned by the political Left throughout their careers. What does it say about you when you join the pile-on?
Donald Trump has repeatedly failed to recruit the best personnel to defend the nation and our Constitution from attack. It looks like he has failed again.
The problem is the “Splitter Strategy” as Sundance often states. We need to get behind ONE MAGA candidate in the primary, not two or three or six. If we don’t the RINOs keep getting renominated and re-elected. Its Politics 101. What was Paul trying to accomplish by NOT backing Trump’s choice? Its only one seat, and if Hood is truly a good MAGA candidate he can run again.
Why is it so hard for R’s and the Center-right to show some political discipline. With the D’s Biden/Schumer/Pelosi lay down the law and everyone marches behind them in support. With the R’s we have senators/congressmen wanting to impeach an R President! We have the R’s at State, local, and the Federal level breaking ranks on key votes and helping the D’s. And they rarely get any blowback. Its crazy.
Ron Hood is the most reliable Ohio conservative since Robert Taft.
His nomination should have been backed by Trump.
‘Nuff said.

Are you serious? He worked to get the right person elected in OH.
Its healthy barb about Rand backing the wrong one and wasting a MILLION dollars.
He is certainly capable of focusing on state level elections, the fact the Communists are destroying our country, as well as a host of other issues— large and small.

From the moment Trump announced Warp Speed and how he was going to cut red tape on developing a vaccine, I knew how potentially dangerous that could be. Never did I imagine this nightmare.
BLM rioter punched a police officer in the face requiring surgical repair. Punishment? Released on his own recognizance! Non-violent trespassing in Capitol on January 6th? Solitary confinement without parole! Double standard? You bet!

I still think Trump Media needs to happen, then we all coalesce there.
Trump knows how to let talent emerge and you’d see this site, GP and some stars coming together.
He can’t be boring. It’s absent from his DNA so the whole thing would be fun.
If Bloomberg can abuse media to get himself in government why can’t someone interesting who has actual talent and is for the people do it?

I have an 85 yr old neighbor who had Fauci as a doctor way back when she was a little kid so he apparently did practice way back in his beginning career.

I fully agree!
I love President Trump’s Socratic method of educating the masses…
I feel bad for those who don’t get it or pretend to find some outrage.
Just another SWAMPER. All talk, no action.
Been ripping Dr Fuchi a new on on many occasions. I agree with my President, he listens to his own drummer but I like him.
Most of the time his assessment of what we, his buyers, are in the market for is spot on.
The drums he heeds are the ones most of us hear as well.
I like Rand too. Don’t always agree with him but he is authentic. Just be who you are.
Yes, Rand is basically a good guy… At times he is a little bit “off the wall”… But, give him credit, he has been doing and saying what the spineless g.o.p. should have been doing and saying.
I fully expect Rand did laugh, and is still laughing about Trump’s comment… And, I sincerely hope he (Rand) didn’t “learn his lesson”…
I Agree,
I read it as serious, sincere, with a dash of benevolent impish ribbing.
I like what Rand SAYS, most of the time.
However, I note he is Senator from Kentucky, also the home State of McConnell, the arch enemy.
Frankly, I just don’t trust him, not to be a false, stalking horse.
After all, the Rino ‘trick’ is to SAY things we believe, in c-span broadcast hearings, Sunday a.m. talk shows, etc. but then to stab us in the back when it counts. Shades of Trey Goudy.
Like Father Like Son… All TALK and NO real ACTION….
Rand Paul talks a good talk but he could have forced the Senate into recess at ANY time from 2018-2020 and he didn’t do it! He deferred to Cocaine Mitch and refused to allow the President to make ANY recess appointments and who knows how different our country might look right now if he had done it!
Until he addresses that issue, and publicly apologizes for it, I will continue to believe that he is another Darrell Issa, Trey Gowdy, Miss Linda, etc “All sound and fury” Republicans, who signify NOTHING!!
Exactly vikingmom – and that is why I say they are ALL corrupt traitors.
Good point! I kinda like Rand Paul but any Republican who defers to that mushed mouth fraud China Mitch should be ashamed of themselves.
They’re from the same state so it’s tough to diss Fish face . But he should.
Phooey. Life is tough. Everyone complains about Mitch but no one crosses him. They are losing the Country to China Mitch and everyone is going to be sorry, even Dr. Rand Paul.
Trump didn’t diss Mitch, heaped all kinds of praise on him, endorsed him. Only at the bitter end did he say something and Mitch wasn’t the only one Trump cozied up to.
Lets hold ALL of them to the same standards.
Imo each person is unique and each situation is unique and complex so I recoil from appeals for one standard that fits all people and situations.
My take: President Trumps Realpolitik calculus included knowing that after each House Impeachment by the Democrats, Mitch was in charge of whether President Trump was removed and replaced by Swamp Embed Pence or not. If Trump was removed he could NEVER run for or hold any federal office.
President Trump knew how tempting removal would be and was savvy enough not to give Mitch a reason to be that duplicitous; a reason FAUX News could get their normies to buy. A McCain 2.0 or Cruz 2.0 lie ie that the treachery was excusable because of Meanie Trump.
Remember FAUX hadn’t committed blatant election fukkery yet so Republican normies were still under the FAUX News spell.
Now we are in a civil war for control of the Republican party. This is part of a world war we are fighting with the Cult Death Globalists who want to destroy us and America then move on to enslave humanity.
Hopefully Rand got Trumps message that its now time to pick sides. This is not about politics. Its about survival. Team Gandalf or Team Sauron. Team God or Team Satan.
AndTime for Rand to wake up, get serious and choose. He now knows President Trump WILL let us know what choices Rand makes from now on; choices that used to remain hidden. Lol.
All it take is “you know what”. And RP does not have ‘em.
Concur
I’m personally rather curious as to why Senator Paul never bother to as Dr. Fauci about all the associated side effects associated with the vaccines, especially ADE antibody dependent enhancement. Why is it that all other drugs have to disclose their side effects and not this experimental drug? And when did he know it?
Most doctors are loving all the vaccines.
Rand Paul is an opthalmologist.
I wonder how knowledgable he is about vaccines.
All I know is that he had covid & grew a beard.
Most people assume the mRNA vaccine works like the vaccines from the 80s & produces antibodies like dead virus vaccines used to do. So, they don’t understand how this untested injection is vastly different from any previous vaccine administered. And, that’s why so many are willing to have their kids get it. They have no idea.
Plus, they don’t hear all the horror stories of myocarditis & other harmful effects this injection causes.
It’s definitely a corrupt senate.
They’re all owned by China ,Google, Soros, etc etc etc.

Classic!! One of my favs.
Exactly – the US Senate is rotten
Yes, and you could add to that list Marsha Blackburn, Ted Cruz, Richard Shelby, Mike Lee, John Kennedy, ad nauseum, NONE of whom did anything to stop the obvious fraud and who acquiesced in surrendering the nation to foreign-directed Marxists. It would have only taken ONE of them. Do NOT ever, ever, trust any of them. If you’re stuck, go ahead and give them a meaningless vote which will be discarded anyway. But don’t give them money. Complicit with treason, all of them.
Thank you! That’s pretty much how I see it! I am old, and somewhat cynical, but I am beyond tired of people who promise that they are with us but who never seem to actually follow through on any of their promises. I fully expect to hear that OJ has caught the “real killer” before any Republicans ever actually challenge the status quo…
Lol.
And thank YOU! Sometimes it’s necessary to state the obvious.
So, you are cynical about government behavior here but not about OJ? Might they have gotten that wrong as well? Be wary of all institutional narratives…
Did you miss the quotes around “real killer”? The case, from a purely legal standpoint was an unmitigated disaster and Marcia Clark was an idiot of a prosecutor. OJ had excellent lawyers and they planted enough of a “reasonable doubt” in the minds of the jurors that the verdict was actually “just” in the eyes of the law. But, do I believe for one moment that OJ Simpson did not brutally murder his ex-wife and Ronald Goldman? Please – I said I was cynical, NOT stupid!
This is what they invented that phrase “bless his heart” for. A tad (mountain sized, cough, cough) behind the curve but don’t worry, no one else misread that.
Lawdy.
Agreed.
Agree,don’t forget Sen. Ron Johnson. Not one senator let PT have a recess appointment
If you’re old and NOT cynical, you have not been paying attention.

I stupidly gave a lot of money to Marsha in particular, even during her primary. Really irritated that she fooled us all. But those days are over, my resources now are better allocated elsewhere.
We all learned none and I mean none of them get any $$……
I despise all you mentioned. I agree. No money. You are right about the voting too.
Don’t forget about Josh Hawley. He coulda done it too!
It’s not that I forgot, it’s just that there are too many to mention them all.
But yes!
Totally agree, VM. I have been saying this for 4 years!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Turtle is the equivalent to Nancy P.
Thanks for the candid information!
Thank you Viking
I too woke up and realized it’s ALL talk no action with mini Rand.
He is a snake.
AND he tweeted about the fraud, yet did NOTHING on the Senate floor to challenge it.
Al Gore had all kinds of challenges and these bribed hacks did nothing.
I hear Rand saying all the right things.
And check the record.
He has done NOTHING. Nothing for the people. His dad never had any bills go through and Rand is on par with that.
I don’t know what his game is but all I care about now is what a person does. Particularly when they HAVE the power we GAVE them.
I’m constantly trying to quote him but I feel betrayed as I do since I know he’ll yack it up about the Fauci fruad but where are the arrests?
You’re saying he funded mass murder and LIED about it Rand.
And you’re really going to do nothing? Is this for real here? You’re using a mass murdering fraud with provable lying before Congress and not gathering together massive legal action with daily demands for it on the Senate floor.
What is he waiting for?
I see nothing from him.
And best believe, Rand. You don’t get HIGHER office for doing nothing in the lower one. So don’t even embarrass this nation with another stab at a run for POTUS. You are an outed do nothing fraud and need to slither home unless and until you man up and do your duties.
“His dad never had any bills go through and Rand is on par with that.“
That’s the game it not? Lots of sweet talk and all we ever get is screwed.
Well, in his dad’s case who among the GOP was going to vote for Ron Paul’s bill to, for example , audit the Fed? He was only one member. Think if Donald Trump was one of 435 Congressman. What could he have accomplished? . . . . No, the GOP and MSNBCNNFOX all told us Ron Paul was a “nut.” And many on here were probably cheering them on. Pathetic.
Mass murder costs money, and I think that our tax dollars were used to finance said mass murder.
Hey! Where have I seen that rat before?
What a great friend. Just like the rest. Scared they gonna get beat if they stand for a common sense principal. None of the replicans allowed President Trump to appoint anyone that he wanted. Always had to be their picks. I call BULL on you all.
Ummm…what?
Ya ummm what the hell? I think you have somehow misjudged Vikingmom.
She is a strong President Trump supporter.
So could have anyone else!
Rands not that bad.
If you think there’s no strings attached to anyone in Washington. Welllll…..
What about anyone else in the senate?
Seriously.??♂️?
Oh, I agree that anyone else in the Senate COULD have and SHOULD have done it but Rand Paul has been very vocal about his supposed support of President Trump and he did NOT do it. I am equally frustrated by all of the others but this post is about Senator Paul specifically so that is who I mentioned in my comments…
Trey Gowdy is the Wuurst or wooorst – either translation – ? head
Rand drew the “designated opposition” card. He *talks* a good conservative game, when there’s no power in the minority to back it up. But when it’s time to actually flip the tables in the Temple of government, he’s nowhere to be found. Rather, he can be found chatting with the money lenders, bringing in cash for the RNC.
Excellent explanation!! A role Miss Linda has played to the T for years…wonder how this investigation into the Kavanaugh accusations is going? Boy howdy, he was gonna git to the bottom of THAT whole thing, wasn’t he?
He never said when. Maybe he misplaced his round “TUIT” Just Saying ??
That’s how I felt when Rand admitted they didn’t really have a backup health care plan.
It was all talk for years and then when they had to show their cards, they had nothing.
Hmm.. well, that is a good point, vikingmom… unfortunately. It’s certainly miserable never knowing who can be trusted.
Agreed.
Totally AGREE, Likes to look like a “Republican” but really a Shape Shifter RINO!
LOL!!! That’s the best laugh I’ve had all week. Trump really knows how to needle people who oppose him.
Good stuff!
Absolutely! Trump gets that we don’t have to be clones of each other. But when you’re right, you’re right. Hah!
Yup….he really knows how to whack those on his own team….
he even picks his own team of losers: tillerson, mattis, kavanaugh, frey.
And then he loses to the other team: Bobby Mueller, Comey, and even Chrissy Wallace.
But. What the hay! Did he show Rand Paul.
Pathetic.
john, I think you’re lost. MoveOn.org or Huffpost is stage left. Please watch your step.
I don’t understand why so many people still do not get the Tillerson pick. Tillerson was an oil insider who knew everyone in the Middle East. Tillerson opened all the doors. There would have been no sword dance without Tillerson. And then you move on.
I agree. Tillerson was part of the establishment but I viewed the pick as President Trump expanding his rolotex in the Middle East. All of Tillerson’s contacts became Trump’s contacts.
Tillerson eventually fired & Trump retains the contacts. lol
Edit: “rolodex”
Right. And I guess John thinks Trump should have been psychic and known the true motives of the thousands of fakers and frauds in DC…. as if John himself wasn’t initially fooled by Mattis and Kavanaugh.
I know! Let Rudy G. get to the bottom of it all!
He already did, bless your heart :-).
Makes perfect sense.
How about the Sessions pick, the Barre pick, Kavanaugh pick, Mattis, Wray, do we really need to go through Homeland Security and every stinking other department?
The reason we are in this mess is because this idiot used his daughter and her husband as primary advisors and failed to do what even this senile old bat in office was capable of doing, and that was CLEANING HOUSE ON DAY ONE! That’s precisely why this man was incapable of mustering up any help while everyone in this country watched on November 3, 2020 the theft and demise of this country.
Marty,
You conveniently fail to mention the fact any person President Trump supported and might have wanted approved, had to be approved by the VERY PEOPLE you cite should have been “Cleaned Out” on day one!!
Those same individuals that should have been cleaned out on “DAY ONE” are now given positions in, or allow others to be, appointed in the Senile old man’s gubmint.
TPTB HATED President Trump..
TPTB LOVE Joebama.
If you haven’t figured that out by now…..
Well
Bless your heart
Please define TPTB. I keep seeing it but can’t figure it out.
Siery bout that, Jebg46
The

That
Be
You and john work as a team often?
I find the lack of nous and absence of subtlety somewhat insulting.
To quote a great man.
“They are not sending their best.”
Bad effort.
Try harder..
You are fooling no one.
Are you sure your name is John? You sound more like Steve Bannon or Lin Wood to me.
Bannon?
Got to unpack that for me,
Al.
How is Bannon not a Trump loyalist, even after EvitaVanka and Kushball talked The Don into dumping him?
Bannon wasn’t dumped by Trump. Bannon wanted out. Could do more on the outside. Who knows if PDJT continued to consult with Bannon after he left the WH. Most likely Trump did. Bannon has a lot of down to earth … wisdom.
More Bannon and less of Ivanka and Jared would have served him better.
It took 2 years to learn the ropes inside The Swamp.
But I do agree, he needs a deeper bench and more MAGA senior staffers & appointees.
Then a few Senators to allow him to make recess appointments, and rock and roll.
Who hires appointees? The SENATE HIRES APPOINTEES or refuses to hire them.
Please stop spreading the Establishments disinfo. The Establishment was and still is desperate to undermine confidence in PDJT by blaming him for their refusal to hire people he wanted.
So what have you done in your life that qualifies you to be such an exacting critic of Donald Trump? Please let us know how superior you are.
Game, set, match to M-C.
You’re a happy guy….
john,
You read like one of those “Lincoln Project” Republicans. How did one of you idiots find your way here?
Lucky us.
Civics 101.
Who could President Trump hire? Answer: Only personal staff such as a press secretary.
Huh? Well then who hired everyone in President Trumps administration? Answer: The utterly corrupt, SENATE HIRES EVERYONE. The Senate refused to even give an initial job interview to some people PDJT wanted.
Trumps revenge? Letting the Senate hire valuable long time Swamp assets. Elevating them. Using them. Then tweet firing them once he’d scoped out their networks and allies but before they got too embedded.
Before Trump, firing people on “your team” was not the DC way. Lol. Think how many Swamp Rats Trump turned from Republican heroes to zeroes. Trump destroyed their ability to be “influencers” forever. God bless him.
Dont forget Armarosa, Amy Coney Barrett, Christopher Wray and Rod Rosenstein. All put into positions by PDT John Kelly and Kristen Nielsen. And, not appointing Kobach as head of DHS . Instead we got that Wolfe clown. General Milley, Mike Esper and the list of disastrous picks goes on. I can love Trump but still hate a bunch of his personnel choices.
At least he tried. He can only do so much and is only the president. Draining the sewer is going to require the help of almost Americans and almost all of Congress.
Thank you for confirming my suspicion of Rand Paul.
He only starts talking about stuff when it comes close to election and nothing he talks about ever amounts to anything.
He should forever go down as the idiot who admitted there was election fraud and then of course certifies the Far Left Biden to take control of the country anyway.
Trump is gently telling all who still fall for the lies to wake up.
Would like to hear him call out Mark Meadows too.
Rand reminds me a lot of Trey Gowdy, a showboater that does very little. Trump’s statement is vintage-Trump, and hilarious. Lmao
Rooster Head MD
ROTFL … yeesh that is funny
Really isn’t that most of the R’s in Gov’t.
I am still trying to figure out what these people do all year long. Their bloated staff do all the work.
Simple. They FUNDRAISE!
60 Minutes years back did a special on it. They leave their official offices, walk a few blocks to a fancy office building, go sit in s small cubicle… and talk to “constituents” – all – day – long. $$$$ Little 3 minute conversations with notes on a computer screen that say…
Betty – abortion rights – 5k
Tom – 2nd Amendt – 20k
Darryl- xyz passage – 10k
They do this 35-40 hours a week. All year long.
You forgot to mention drinking. Not easy to start by 9 or 10 every morning.
I appreciate Rand for going after Fauci. Other than that – he doesn’t have the gravitas to take on the system. Trump IS the definition of gravitis.
Rand Paul has been targeted multiple times with physical violence:
1) the baseball shooting
2) rib-breaking assaulting neighbor
3) BLM mobs in DC
4) how was it that Rand Paul had Covid before anyone else in Congress?
If he is careful in picking his battles, I can understand that. I appreciate his courage when he stands up for us, and hope I will have courage also if time and place demand it.
President Trump, win or lose, has exhibited massive courage and I will be forever grateful no matter what
Excellent points! I had forgotten what he’s gone through personally.
I’m not looking for perfection…I hate it when we eat our own at every opportunity. What person fighting in the arena wants to put up with supporters like that?
I’ve never seen him do that in terms of USING his office and power
AOC has accomplished more
I don’t see Rand getting any of the Paul family issues shoved into these trillion dollar bills like an audit of the fed
Yet AOC gets an implosion of our way of life in there
What has Rand ever done?
He was mistargeted by the Left who have no idea his words have never accomplished anything which is unfortunate but a loud do nothing yapper is borderline worse than a quiet guy who slips in something needed every so often
Rand is a UniYapper
I would define “gravitas” as “dignity.” Second definition.
“Seriousness”, first definition, works for The Don.
“Solemnity in demeanor” less so.
But if you mean “cajones”
The Don sure has that.
“Weight” or “Drag” would also apply—“gravity.”
“Substance” is also part of that 3rd definition.
Which pretty much nails it,
got to agree with you there.
Ironic, but predictable, that his opponents confuse and conflate his Style with his Substance and accuse him of being merely a demagogue. While simultaneously hating him for what they instinctively recognize as his genuine and uncompromising AMERICAN substance.
Fauci is still yapping his ass off spouting lies against good Americans.
Trump is the only one to show us Americans how crooked and greedy politicians really are.
True.
So far.
Trump is epic at trolling people. Love it!
Rand Paul is a great guy as well, can’t win ’em all.
Trump has backed the wrong guy a few times himself. Rand Paul is a great American. I don’t see any need to choose one over the other.
A great American who refused funding of the wall because there wasn’t money to do so?
Rand is a RINO and a Traitor.
Sen.Rand Paul is doing his part to save our children from the Democrats…
“Local bureaucrats and union bosses — we will not allow you to do more harm to our children again this year.
Children are not at any more risk from COVID than they are for the seasonal flu.
Every adult who works in schools has either had the vaccine or had their chance to.
There is no reason for mask mandates, part time schools, or any lockdown measures…
If a school system attempts to keep the children from full-time, in-person school,
I will hold up every bill with two amendments. One to defund them, and another to allow parents the choice of where the money goes for their child’s education.”
Good post leik
That’s more yapping
Everyone said (or tacitly acknowledged) his yapping is stellar, which is how you throw the scent of your do nothing Gowdy-ness off.
Since you sound like you research this yapping hyena can you please summarize a heroic ACTION he ACCOMPLISHED?
(Summarized quickly, then link to the proof so we can see if legit or not)
–Because he also said and proved Fauci is a mass murderer funding Dr. Death and lied to Congress yet I see no arrests and not even losing his job.
–So quality yapping isn’t the issue here.
–Please demonstrate where he DID something.
And I genuinely want to compare what he’s accomplished compared to what he has outed
I’ve seen him OUT the fact we were disenfranchised, mass murdered, economy ruined on purpose and trillions in theft and waste
If all he’s gotten accomplished is a post office naming or something he is a colossally worthless Gowdy
In fact it’s even worse because when you KNOW what is happening and you WITNESS the inaction that deliberately adds to throwing people into learned helplessness which is an actual tactic of these satanic evil pieces of trash who study how to disempower the people. Wicked to not use your office to give the people some hope and some wins.
AND he even has whole days and presentations and joke threads about all the fraud and scams we’re under as he does zero. He’s a piece of work.
Proposed amendments to a bill only hold up the bill long enough for the Senate to vote on the amendment.
Does anyone believe another “Republican” Senator would not suddenly fall “Ill” and allow the “Lock Step” democrat Senators to steamroll the amendments?
Does anyone believe Senator Paul does not know this?
a point, but also a massively broad brush.
It was Trump who choose Mattis, McMaster and Kelly. All three very poor choices to put it mildly. I think it was because of his high school crush on Generals. He did get over it though.
Errr….seems to me the system has been established for a long time and most of the people in it are there because they support it. So where was President Trump supposed to find people who opposed the status quo who also had the experience, guts and the clout to go against the bureaucracy – and BTW – people who could even be approved for the job?
However, I wondered what happened with Rex Tillerson? I read that he called Javinka “The Royal Family” and recall that T-Rex got fired right after his 60 minutes interview. I’m not saying POTUSDJT was perfect but who is??? Even though his technique, in a completely new environment, might have needed a bit of refinement, and he had road blocks continually blocking his agenda, he was right on the REALLY important issues.
I’m sorry but we were supposed to know even our generals are garbage?
I feel quite confident every Conservative I know was under the impression the military is pretty heroic.
You go look at the internet in the days Trump re-hired Mattis
His rep was “Mad Dog Mattis” and it was of a General McCarthur mixed with John Wayne mixed with a little Jack Nicholson but the good version
There were all his sayings which were these hardcore but witty things. This is NOT one of them but they were similar to the famous “The point of war is not to die for your country, but to get the other poor ba$tard to die for his.”
It was all stuff like that. Really, the guy as far as a little Duck Duck going went was a cool character
Trump went in and ended up shining a flashlight on these cockroaches
I’m sorry, but traitors know how to hide and de-cloak. And until we got a guy actually fighting for us we could not see the extent of the infestation.
So now we know the leadership is back to the old Catch 22 days PLUS a side of evil, satanism and treachery like Reichstag Milley
Kinda explains our 70 years straight of war losing against 3rd world dirt dumps with the greatest military the world has ever known.
Something is wrong with that.
“I’m sorry but we were supposed to know even our generals are garbage?
I knew.
“I feel quite confident every Conservative I know was under the impression the military is pretty heroic.”
You must know only very naive conservatives then. How many of them were even in the military?
Why didn’t you apply for the position?
Could have saved U.S. a bit of trouble!
A lot of us who have been in the military know that it is not necessarily heroic. I knew Mattis was full of shart when I read his bio after Trump appointed him. My fears were confirmed.
Anything from 0-4 upwards broadly becomes exponentially more political.
Mattis has long since transitioned from soldier to politician, and should be treated as such.
Mattis had been groomed by the Swamp to be a presidential candidate and/or a splitter candidate for some time so Trump MOABed one of the Swamps most treasured assets. Now they can’t even use him as an influencer.
Btw Trump used Matrix to get the Swamp to pass his huge defense bill . The bill was padded to give Trump enough $$$ for the wall that Trump knew the Swamp would never fund.
The Swamp counted on their guy Matt is to block Trump from using military $$$ for the wall. They NEVER thought Trump would have the balls to fire frikkin Mad Dog Matrix and risk alienating his military and patriotic base. Lol. They were wrong.
thank you. Sorry, I was a gullible rube back in 2015. i thought Mueller and Comey were honorable men. They was FBI wasn’t they? I thought our Generals were honorable men. Remember Schwatzkopf or Eisenhower? Sure, maybe some were D’s and some were R’s but they were all patriots and America First.
They were Generals after all. And while I thought Ryan and McConnell were GOPe, why they’d support Trump because he was a Republican and was in favor of 90% of what they believed in. So what if they disagreed on immigration or trade policy.
And the DOJ? well sure there were plenty of leftwing lawyers, but they still believed in the rule of lasw.
And man, was I wrong! Trump caused a LOT of masks to fall. He ripped the mask off DC corruption. and exposed these people for what they are – Globalist, Selfish DC insiders, (and some of them) Lying leftists.
I Will always blame EvitaVanka and Kushball the Feckless, nearly every bad move in the Trump Administration can be traced to them.
Believing one can read Presidents mind or an insider familiar with his thinking is a serious red flag suggesting the need for a mental health check up. Or too much time watching and trusting manipulatives. Either way, best wishes on a quick return to reality.
You mean like those pesky historic peace treaties, the Democrats dislike so much?
Hard to get the people that you really want. The big club almost always block them.
It’s not like he could he could choose his own brother for Attorney General like JFK did.
Civics 10i President Trump chose his personal staff. The SENATE HIRED everyone in his administration or refused to hire them.
Took a psych class once so feel comfy diagnosising strangersor just parroting someone else’s formulaic cringe? Either way, thanks for the chuckle.
Yes he has. Too often, in fact.
The difference? Trump backed a less than perfect Republican rather than letting a Democrat get elected. Even the worst Rino counts towards determining who’s in control. Its a TEAM “SPORT”.
Rand got called out for funding a Republican candidate AFTER President Trump had endorsed someone. The race was being hyped by the Media as a test of Trumps kingmaker status and whether the Establishment should seek his endorsement or embrace MAGA. Everything was on the line. Rand betrayed Trump with his attempted sabotage on behalf of Mitch and the Establishment. Fortunately MAGA voters came thru with a huuuge win from Trumps pick.
Trump just put Rand on notice using a teasing tone.
Hopefully Rand remembers that PDJT is one of the worlds most famous apex predators renowned for his obsession with getting revenge on disloyal people no matter how long it takes.
You mean Yuuuuge!
One would hope so President Trump.
Hey, see what happens when you stand up and fight back. Alberta, Canada lost. This is huge, listen to how it unfolded.
https://awakecanada.org/patrick-king-of-red-deer-alberta-wins-court-case/
Still trying to get confirmation on this story. It has been swirling around for a few days now but is it confirmed that Alberta has actually rescinded ALL their mandates?
yes
Thank you for sharing this most encouraging story! I look forward to hearing more! Can’t wait to see this replicated in America!
WOW, that points in the direction that we need to fight, thank you very much that was Great!
I think ALberta, saskawatkawn and Manitoba should just leave Canada. Its not like they have to be part of Canada or they’ll be swallowed up by the USA.
I’m not Canadian (although there’s always hope) and I don’t know how the $$ flows from Ottawa to these proviences, but even if these places are getting more $$ than they give, they should still leave. Self respect is more important than $$
OMG
I gasp laughed. LOL. I may not survive him either.
Mario The Immaculate looking up from Hell: ” I shoulda left that load on the sheet….”
“Rand is a different kind of guy, but I like him a lot anyway.”
That is classic Trump!
Love that man.
Trump the genuine article.
He likes him BECAUSE he is a different kind of guy.
So is The Don.
I prefer people who are independent thinkers.
Going along with Mitch McConnell didn’t help Trump did it?
So what if Rand Paul endorsed someone other than who Trump wanted.
I liked a lot of what Trump said and some of what Trump did but there’s also a lot that Trump left unsaid and he left undone.
Right now he’s needling Rand Paul?
That’s where he thinks the attention needs to be directed?
Dems consistently destroy Republicans because they stick together behind their leadership. Trump is the Leadership and Rand Paul needs to get behind him or step aside.
That’s your opinion.
I don’t see any leadership.
But I did see Rand Paul say that people should step up and engage in civil disobedience.
https://www.foxnews.com/opinion/mask-mandates-lockdown-choose-freedom-sen-rand-paul
Hey osi…it is my opinion that nobody in the senate can be trusted as long as China Mitch is in one of the leader positions. He controls the money and who gets elected/re-elected. Rand also worked against us in the Ditch Mitch effort…forget that at your own peril. I’m happy when Rand agrees and helps us, but I certainly don’t trust him.
All the old ones that have been in congress need to go. Therein that’s the problem. 20-30 yes. Give me a break. Im old too, so please get out. Give someone else with new ideas for this country. Y’all tired.
Fair enough
Oooh… another yip yip and a yap yap.
I think we’ve acknowledged he talks the talk.
It’s the walk that appear strangely absent in the fan links.
Well when your hero ,Rand steps up to the plate,come back and tell us. I thought this Paulee club died when Ron retired, but I guess not.
Needling Rand isn’t the point—keeping focus on OHio 15 is. Anyone who participated in trying to knock out Trump’s endorsed candidate is fair game. That includes Rand.
Trump’s goal is to demonstrate—repeatedly—that he can force the GOP to reckon with him.
Agree; plus, one of President Trump’s tasks is to teach the Republicans how to fight!
trump (his maga army) is not to be dismissed
we have enormous power.
simply put this nation is divided in half:..
those that favor the turd Obama and his camp (includes the Clinton cabal)
and those that favor president Trump.
covid is likely to be the key.
many people are joining into a majority who dissent towards a corrupt, central
inept, power grubbing central government.
.stage 3 revolution continues in a faster pace than at any other time.. even more now than witnessed from impeachment, and election fraud/theft.
the people are starting to experience pain they can no longer bear.
1-2 year Max.
and this summer, late, will see the first big event.
be unafraid…be prepared
. God Bless America
Agree, we are not to be dismissed.
Trumps Army gave him a 100 MM war-chest.
The RNC may not admit it in public, but that scared the living hell out of them.
Must reckon, indeed must follow.
That comparison doesn’t work for me. President Trump was representing the executive branch and McConnell part of the legislative branch.
It makes perfect sense for President Trump to do his best to negotiate and work with McConnell. I don’t fault President Trump for the legislative branch’s unwillingness or inability to get stuff done. Especially the first two year of his term, the blame falls squarely with McConnell and Ryan.
Flush out all the RINO’s, wannabe RINO’s and Swamp Critters. It’s going to take a solid group of MAGA candidates to effect change.
Paul is entertaining but I’ve been disappointed more often than not. Delivery is good, results are much better.
Share those exact sentiments osi
agreed…but there IS Paul’s own reelection bid coming up…don’t overlook that.
this isn’t just petty slapshot.
trump is saying 199 percent crystal clear:
rand, this is your chance to make it VERY clear to your constituents, that you are maga and will fall line and do your level best to destroy the enemy a support patriots.
it’s now or never.
trump is not subtle.
he has nuance but it comes packaged in a 50 pound cinder block.
I can assure you, rand Paul is taking notice and having his staff focus on what he can do between now and election day to persuade president Trump to back him up
this is simple arithmetic. .rand Paul KNOWS how to add
Ya know?
I agree with everything you wrote there. I need to think on that angle for a bit.
Terrorizing anyone who backs a Trump opponent is PRECISELY where the Schwerpunkt is.
That’s how you get a Congress and Administration full of Trump loyalists.
How does one legally “Go Around” the Senate MAJORITY LEADER”?
Asking for a friend.
by marginalizing his power, first at the state level AND simultaneously booting his beach friend Rino’s out not the Senate (and house).
McConnell’s power (which is unchallenged) can be reduced if we can get senators elected who have the right stuff.
and then, there is always the old school way and show some tapes years ago when he was rough with women…that seems to be the trend…it doesn’t have to be true…
right?
The tried and true “Wrap up smear”!
What’s good for the goose..
And All that ?
Thanks for asking questions!! Answers: Yes, getting along with Mitch pre J20 did help Trump and us.alot Realpolitik savvy.
Yes Trump does think his attention needs to be on Rands snek moves in Ohio and he’s ABSOLUTELY correct.
Winning the civil war being waged right now for control of the Republican party and the survival of MAGA is his #1 focus. Its not yours?
Btw Rand’s endorsement was designed to help crush Trump and MAGA quickly so the Establishment could regain control of the primaries and make sure Swamp picks are elected in 2022.
For sentients Rand’s betrayal is a huuuge “so what”. So glad President Trump gave us a heads up of GOP treachery and Rand such a public warning.
President Trump does not hold back his feelings, that’s what I love most about him. ????
I love him in spite of such behavior.
I will always respect anyone who is bold and direct ..
even my enemy.
there is honor in respecting someones core principles.
I was raised with all kinds…the willy milky nitwits never accomplished ANYTHING.
in this world, you get results when you have the guts to just do it.
Gee Karen, why would judging his communication STYLE even be on the Radar with WHAT he says and what he does?
I don’t think I’d love him without such exceptional abilities.
Good. We are at war; war to prevent our destruction, the American Republics destruction and the introduction of an inescapable world wide gulag for all of humanity.
Civilian normies, especially females, often do not understand or like the warrior behavior that’s necessary to save them from unspeakable horrors. That’s fine as long as they don’t interfere or get in the way.
As Trump said in a famous 2020 tweet “I’m just trying to stop the world from killing itself”.
I’m praying he succeeds and helping as much as I can. Hopefully you are too.
THE ALPHA HAS SPOKEN!
Oh how I love DJT!
Trump has a way of reprimanding his friends, while still saying they are his friend, for sure.
Normally, I would say this was unnecessary. The purpose of primaries is to battle it out for the best candidate to move forward…no one is really be an enemy here.
However, I totally get what this is about.
Disagree with you.
Rand is a Rino through and through.
He opposed funding of the wall, claiming there wasn’t money for it.
He is a traitor to your country.
Rand wants to defund the Democrats.. and this might work ….
“We don’t have to accept the mandates, lockdowns, and harmful policies of the petty tyrants and feckless bureaucrats. We can simply say no, not again.
Speaker Nancy Pelosi — you will not arrest or stop me or anyone on my staff from doing our jobs.
We have all either had COVID, had the vaccine, or been offered the vaccine.
We will make our own health choices.
We will not show you a passport, we will not wear a mask,
we will not be forced into random screening and testing so you can continue your drunk with power rein over the Capitol. ‘
And then the action that has been accomplished is ????
All talk no action is really starting to have another mascot
Blah blah blah. All words. Meanwhile what was Rand doing? Rand was in Ohio campaigning against Trumps candidate.
He was trying to give the Globalist Machine the story they craved. ‘Trump endorsed MAGA candidate defeated’ ‘The Republican Establishment is returning to “sanity” and can safely ignore Trump and MAGA for the rest of the primaries and then the 2022 general election’ ‘Trump fails. Republicans reject his candidate’
They were salivating in anticipation. Thank God MAGA voters came thru bigly and crushed the schemers malevolent dreams. Rand and the Swamp btfo. Trump will NOT be merciful with Rand ever again. Thank God.
Yeah, thanks Petra. I didn’t know he did that.
I used to hate his dad from some open borders arguments I remember.
The feds only have 2 real jobs according to all CONSERVATIVE principles.
Border protection and protection of America. Then fiscal responsibility etc
And the Pauls have been for nukes for Iran and open borders and other stuff, then don’t get that fed audit to even be discussed.
He’s an impressionist painting
Good from afar
A real mess up close
Your?
If it ain’t yours Petra, why are you single issue on The Wall?
I’m going to doubt highly that’s her only issue.
That’s a fine single issue though.
Mine sometimes boils down to recovering voting for the same reason.
It’s one of the federal government’s only actual jobs. They fail colossaly and purposefully on the only things they are supposed to be doing.
They are there to protect American citizens and are not.
Open borders = dead disappeared country
It’s one of the biggest issues and specifically the ONE that got Trump elected
We have 30-40 million human trafficked problems in America due to the likes of Rand
The downstream effects in wages, crime, vote thievery AND a lot of hellish victimizing are endless in this globalist nightmare.
“Build up that wall Mr. Trump” and he worked tirelessly to do so as Rand and company stood in his way
Rand has been one of the very few pushing back on mandates and Fauci. Is it kabuki? IDK, but maybe I am still naive in believing that there are some MDs who care about people’s health and well being. I would much prefer an alliance between these two on COVID. Make it happen at rallies.
Not saying Rand was right in his support of that candidate, just saying that for me this is petty BS and my priority is maintaining our personal choices without being threatened with losing jobs and everything else they are getting away with. Very sad
with fauci, it isn’t Kabuki…it could be much more effective however…as noted in a prior thread weeks back, I stated my team supplied rand Paul’s staff with critical amplifying FACTs…he has no excuse from this lint forward to take the sword from the scabbard.
we’ll be watching him.
carefully
because it’s important to get this right and tell the entire whole truth.
gloves are off…time for people to start sweating they will be exposed for their complicity on the dangerous work if chimera bat virus and gain of function.
spoiler:. we KNOW this virus was designed.
we KNOW fauci and a host of complete fools made that work possible.
it won’t put the virus back in a cage, but the end game is to have an INTERNATIONAL sanction on ALL GAIN OF FUNCTION RESEARCH.
STAT!
Thank you for this information, your efforts in getting into, hopefully, the right hands. Pray the light will shine on the truth. IMO, nothing is more important at this time.
Excuse me
But he had a VOTE to stop election fraud, a way to voice his opposition and hold up Pence and did nothing.
And his tweeting prior had exposed all the fraud yet with his office he re-enslaved America.
And now he says Fauci is a mass murderer and after the camera lights go off does nothing?
That’s not how you roll when you mean what you are exposing.
He can ask a real man like De Santis or Trump what to do but for “some” reason has a bromance with the other performance artist Ted Lose instead
Paul is a useful idiot.
he occupies a seat, with a large voting following.
we will use him to usurp a larger problem without insulting and humiliating his voters…the goal is to steer Paul into a tight lane working on goals that usher in a larger sweep of maga benchmarks.
then we will toss him .
and he’ll do it.
Paul IS independent minded, but first and last, he needs help to get himself reelected.
noting…I recall president Trump “working” other jackwagons with good results. his words toward Paul left no doubts in my mind what he expects Paul to do for his support.
ironically…of Paul fulfills those key things… he’ll become even more popular with his donors and supporters.
president Trump doesn’t mess around…he knows how to win
Paul knows how to win, but he’s never experienced trump level winning. I’ve a feeling he will like the feeling…alot!?
We are in a war for our survival. Without Gods help the American Republic is gone and humanity enters an inescapable gulag run by Cult Death Globalists.
Trump is our general. He is the ONLY human who might be able to help us escape Cult Deaths nightmarish schemes that we see unfolding.
If we accept Trumps leadership and embrace the spirit of our ancestors, we MAY survive to pass the torch of freedom on.
As the patriots during our first American Revolution said, “We hang TOGETHER and win or lose and hang seperately”.
If we fail to recognize that the fate of the world depends on our choices then as we ” lose and hang separately ” those who have pinned their last hopes on us will curse the fools like Rand and those who supported his privileged arrogant superficiality that allowed Cult Death to plunge the world into darkness.
We are at war with Cult Death fighting for our survival and the survival of humanity. These primaries aren’t normie political games right now.Anyone who goes against a Trump endorsed candidate during this war is an ENEMY siding with Cult Death. I’ll pray for them and love them as a child of God. I will also despise their choices and seek to thwart them just as I would react to any threat to everything God has entrusted to my care. Hopefully Rand wakes up asap. He’s in danger of being utterly crushed as a terrifying lesson to ALL Republican smugs.
Rand Paul the Rino.
Refused to help fund the border :
Rand Paul: ‘We don’t have money to spend’ for Trump’s border wall
GOAT Trump wasn’t poking fun of Rand, he was calling him out.
Whelp! That makes it easy for me to NOT send Rand Paul any more donations. He wastes it on this???
Whassamatter with Republicans? They all seem either dumb or lackadaisical in all that they do. They need to grow a pair and have a fire lit under their butts.
I agree that Ran Paul is a fake. All talk and no cattle. You’d think after literally being aasaulted by the Left, he’d be less of wishy washy moderate, but they never learn.
This is a promise from Sen. Rand Paul …
“President Biden — we will not accept your agencies’ mandates or your reported moves toward a lockdown. No one should follow the CDC’s anti-science mask mandates. And if you want to shutdown federal agencies again — some of which aren’t even back to work fully — I will stop every bill coming through the Senate with an amendment to cut their funding if they don’t come to work. “
Rand is the only one saying it and I am with him on this.
A bill is only STALLED by a proposed amendment; UNTIL said amendment is VOTED on!!!!!
Proposing is NOT STOPPING.
Proposing is TALKING!!
Here is my promise, when that happens,I will personally send you 100.00 dollars by Paypal.
Notice Rand did not say how long his amendments would stop each one of President Biden’s bills from passing. Did you imagine the bill was stopped until Rand got his way for “us”? Lol. Nope. Only until the Senate quickly voted to reject Rand’s latest PR stunt.
All Hat and No CAttle
Good call.
I’ve said the same thing about Steve Scalise before.
The guy gets shot while playing a charity softball game, ends up surviving, and then I see him voting with Pelosi and the dems.
Yeesh. Another one. It never ends.
Before Blevins was elected Gov of KY, he ran against Mitch in the Senate primaries. Rand of course backed Mitch.
Rand is the junior senator from KY.
Ugly.
The Big Ugly.
Glad to see DJT is having fun.
DeSantis 2024
This petty release is just another reason why.
While most of us are laughing and cheering this and having fun, there is a strategic reason for it …just like his “mean tweets.” It’s not petty, it is purposeful. Look deeper.
Concur, Hope. Speaking Truth to power and kicking mean girls’ posteriors by being mean cannot cogently be called “petty.”
LOL
God forbid we have direct, honesty in politics.
And thank God for the lessons with the Lapdog Media.
Our eyes are wide open. We can never unsee the Swamp.
DeSantis will make a great VP before President
Yes but never forget if a replacement his equal is not in place when he vacates we would win the battle but lose the war as FL is a must win for the GOP with the present electoral makeup.
They have tried all California tricks possible.
Legalize felon voting
Swamp with illegals
All out fraud in blue areas most famously and ridiculously Palm Beach
Legal challenges up to the unreliable Supremes
106% of the vote in a St. Lucie country precinct for Oblowme
So all I can think of is Don Jr.
But we can’t make mistakes anymore
Even the Keystone Communists can win with this degree of corruption, vote stuffing if we make stupid blunders like getting the only one saving FL out before the job is done.
But Trump POTUS, De Santis VP, then De Santis POTUS is pretty magical sounding if FL is secure
They are the most perfect balance for each other ever
Trump needs detail and deeper dives, De Santis has it
De Santis isn’t 3 D jumping off the screen the way Trump does
They’d be epic if we don’t mess up and vacate FL governorship
Nothing petty about the truth.
Oh good grief. Are you still hung up on the mean tweets BS.
Accomplishments mean nothing to you?
Simping for the DC Establishments choice just like good old Meghan McCain on the View? Malevolent duper or one of the naives that they’ve duped? Either way, wishing you a speedy recovery. Trump 2024.
Nope. He is just controlled opposition. Just blaster no action.
these guys just dont get it…how painful it must be.
I hope it was in good fun and Rand Paul took it that way. Last thing we need now is allies fighting. Be kind of like if America and England started fighting in 1942.
ironically that DID happen..
the US balked at the “invitation” early on and numerous times…
WHAT DID change the decision…?
That is a very important question that “history” doesn’t quite explain.
spoiler: there was an agreement about how trade and Europe would be divided up, well before the actual declaration of war. the US wasn’t eager to re engage another world war in Europe after the ww1 because prior deals.never materialized.
when we say to the victor goes the spoils of war, isn’t a cliche…it’s the very currency that cinches the deal
Politicians, every last one. They’re not beholden to any one but themselves.
I’m sure Rand plays ball with the senior senator from Kentucky every body’s favorite RINO decepticon Mitch McConnell. But Rand on the RINO meter is no where near Mitch the snake. Love him or hate him every now and then Rand will stand up and show he can be useful. Mitch on the other hand is obligated to his Chinese overlords and globalist masters. I’m guessing the million he wasted was funneled from Mitch, and Trump gets the last laugh.
Trump played ball with mitch too.
We can afford to throw Rand Paul overboard just like we threw Tucker Carlson and Krist Neom and Matt Geetz overboard and some others I can’t remember off the top. We can afford to do this because we are so powerful, and have so many friends in powerful political positions and so many big voices in the media, we can afford to be choosy. We don’t need them at all.
I know this to be true because I called up DNC HQ and they told me so.
Rand thru himself overboard and so did the rest!
people like him and the rest are the reason we have a problem like this in the first place!
democrats in republican clothing
insanity is repeating the same thing over and over and expecting a different outcome!
replace the dead wood with something that shows a sign of life!!
every incumbent should have a target on them
especially in the Senate!!
And he will be a wild man; his hand will be against every man, and every man’s hand against him…
I have posted numerous factual, historical examples of why Tucker is not our friend and is dangerous and won’t list them here again.
The latest example is him helping to launch JD Vance’s OH Senate campaign.
JD is a Never Trump fraud who was injected into the race as a splitter to keep OH’s seat UNIPARTY.
This is one of the reasons they throw out some MAGA breadcrumbs every now and then…so they can fool people when important things come up. It is Fox’s raison d’etre!
As for NOEM:
Jon Schweppe (@JonSchweppe) Tweeted:
Lol, @KristiNoem held a fundraiser with John Boehner over the weekend. Of course she did.
https://t.co/Nzjqkse4aQ
Well-stated on both, Hope.
Apropos that Tucker shows up in a Rand Paul discussion.
I’m done with being encouraged by the occasional bone Tucker throws MAGA while playing the injured, I’m being spied on card. No **** Sherlock, we all are being spied on and your own darned network had it happen during Obama with James Rosen. I’m not buying the “you’re one of us” gig you’re trying to sell.
Noem lost me when she didn’t stand up on the transgender athletes issue. It’s been a steady decline since and yukking it up with Boehner is the final nail in the coffin.
Exactly
Although I’ve missed your posts I agree totally and have posted some things too.
By the way, we have NEVER trashed Matt Goetz so the guy is just spouting straw men.
It’s another trick.
You list a bunch of people we actually rightfully trashed like Noem, then throw in someone who we never have as a total fib.
And people here are split anyway on Tucker.
I am anti Tucker because I watched him and Mann Coulter try the lie of the century to pretend we lost the election and white men abandoned Trump. It’s just a stone cold lie.
But if he says something truthful to the FOX audience it’s good to know what they’re “allowing” to be heard as bait for him to use to gain false trust before turning again.
And are they trying to say more blacks voted for Bribed-en than Obama which was also in those ridiculous numbers? When are Mann Coulter and Tucker going to address the absolute nonsense of those numbers.
But anyway, it’s a classic move where you throw in someone who doesn’t fit that makes your pattern look bad for the other side.
We have to and must actually throw the bums out.
Exactly what is wrong with posting a person’s public record while in office of Faux noise that betrays their lies when you have a country to save.
Give me a break. RINO protection at its finest.
Big T needs to fire his proof reader. I’ll gladly do it on top of my oil/gas legal title opinions.
The Stupid Party dosnt like to fight. They are terrified the MSM Whores Of The CCP will say mean things about them.They throw whip cream pies while the Demonic Pedo Democrats use Viet Cong tactics. President Trump showed them how to fight. They refuse to unite behind MAGA. They hate MAGA. Now they are going to turn the U.S. into Venezuela by helping the Dems with the stupid Infrastructure Bill- aka the Red China Bailout.
You mean bribed traitors.
They fight mighty hard for the bribes.
Did you hear Lindsay Scam defending COVID money to Pakistan for gender issues? If he’s not getting a slice of the warlords’ pie in the Swiss bank account I’ll be a monkey’s uncle.
They’re feisty as hell against you, smart enough to get 8 mansions apiece without the votes to even get in office.
These are not wimps
These are weasles
These are crooks and actors shadow boxing and taking paid dives
No republican is a good republican who spent four years letting President Trump get slammed. Count on your thumbs the good ones.
LOL, count your thumbs
My new fave phrase
The truth hurts
Maybe Rand Paul could tweet and twerk him back and remind President Trump that he endorsed both McCain and Romney.
BTW, who was it in 2016 who endorsed Liz Cheney’s Republican Party opponent?
1) Donald Trump
2) Rand Paul
Ya know,I come here every single day, mostly to be encouraged by Sundance,who NEVER fails to explain in great detail, why Donald J. Trump is truly the only man in the country who can rescue us from the attempted Socialist/Communist takeover of our country.
We are barely hanging on, and when we’re starting to lose our grip, Sundance comes here and shows us why we have to hold the line and keep fighting. He does the research and writing, and sometimes, all but begs us to stay the course.
Then I read some of these snide, snarky remarks written by armchair experts about Trump, the one man who’s literally been through the fire for US, and I want to throw something at someone.
What the hell else do you whiners want the man to do for us? Some people here are going back to 2016 to find things to criticize him for. Tonight the comments are especially sarcastic.
You people don’t deserve a leader like President Trump. And he deserves better than your half-hearted support.
He deserves at least one page in the whole internet where his supporters can find inspiration, useful facts, and good ideas for ways we can get through this nightmare and restore our rightful President to office.
I’ve never stopped, nor will I ever stop fighting for the greatest President ever! He is the only one who has and continues to fight for this country on a national level with access. Never backed down from a fight and under the current conditions our resolve and tenacity should be more intense than ever. The enemy thinks they will wear us down. Everything they do, makes me stronger. Fight till the last bullet. Die standing rather than live kneeling. Let’s see if the current vermin is willing to risk their lives and those of their loved ones. Hope it doesn’t come to this. If it does, the fate of our country is more than worth that sacrifice. Others paid the price before us. Our time in this world is merely a dress rehearsal.
Are you seriously questioning offcoursenation of not supporting President Trump?
GTFOH. Where did all of you come from all the sudden?
I’ve been here since 2014. Come here several times a day, every day. Don’t you dare tell me to GTFOH. You better re-read Offcoursenation’s petty comments again.
I read it multiple times. I don’t read you at all. I have also read what ocn has written for months. I stand by my comment.
You have got to be a Cajun, great hearing from you.
Worth mentioning again:
remind President Trump that he endorsed both McCain and Romney
I received a request for money from Rand on Tuesday past promising to fight for some education thingy.
I was watching an old clip of a comedian roasting Clinton to his face for the same type of behavior. Rand has really got the hang of this. He may never have to mill around with the hoi poloi and see a patient again like gain of function mass murderer Fauci.
Well after his Covid hospital stay and recovery. He was working shifts in the hospital Covid ward.
Just Saying
1. it’s not rand Paul’s money…yes he was fronting a candidate but lets not forget … getting interested citizens to roll 1 million isn’t easy..
it shows people wanted this candidate…that’s called free choice…
2. win or lose, conviction is king in my book…you go with your best judgement, because that’s what you have… only have.
3. there are lots of ways to persuade rand Paul to leap all in with maga…antagonizing him isn’t going to do that. there is a real risk of pissing off constituents… party affiliation these days is delicate….
4. in an era where one size fits all, it’s probably wise to make room for politicians who are good enough..this idea that everyone has to be trump, or desantisn is foolish…it will take generations to create a new party of maga…in the meantime, you USE the people who are most likely to contribute to the cause…that would include rand Paul…not perfect…does not have to be..only needs to be useful.
I love me some President Trump…but if we’ve learned ANYTHING…one man cannot work through every issue…and NOR should we ever desire that.
democracies suck…
poking rand Paul in the eye right now is not a very good strategy…
are we actually talking about replacing him in the up upcoming elections?
with who?
nice try. trump endorsed someone, then Paul helped raise $1 million for his opponent. So, what does that mean? It means (1) Paul won’t put his ego in check and work with Trump and MAGA (suprised?) and (2) he’s probably sabotaging us by supporting a RINO.
Why doesn’t Paul work with Trump and endorse and raise $1 Million for someone else? Someone more conservative and MAGA? This is Paul’s M.O. He talks a good game, but his actions are always GOPe
You tell me.
in no small way, by insulting Paul, trump is insulting donors who out up a million clams.
is that how you win maga voters?
is that how you convert maga donors?
seriously…is the strategy all or nothing.
that’s a galactically stupid strategy.
what am I missing here.
seriously…where IS the long game success strategy here?
I wanna know.
rand Paul has enormous support…he commands a very good position.
it’s not perfect, but it can be very useful for many reasons.
this seems unnecessarily petty with no open options…it’s like shutting a door.
so again sane question:
if the plan is to give Paul the boot from the upcoming election, then what is the name of the incumbent to replace him?
see how this works.
Your analysis is flawed and reminds of the Never-trumper/RINO rhetoric we got before Trump. “We need a big tent” “We have to get the big donors” “We have to reach out to moderates and minorites”. Steele, Romney, McCain, etc. were peddling that loser strategy. Paul needs to get on Team MAGA, and if he won’t then we should replace him. And that’s true of all of them.
We don’t vote for politicans because they have R after their name. We vote for people because they will IMPLEMENT our agenda. Not talk about our agenda during campaign season. There is no point of having a “BIG TENT” when people “IN THE TENT” don’t agree with MAGA policies. Or agree with them, but won’t fight for them.
The RINO’s and GOPe spent 16 years talking about “No purity tests” then Trump came along and suddenly they were in favor of purity tests. So when people start talking about “no purity tests” “we can’t afford to lose and insult people” I wonder where they’ve been since 2015.
Brilliant.
yet, the question remains:
whom, please supply the name, will replace Paul?
business 101 – you fire someone who is 60 percent effective ONLY AFTER finding the 80 percent effective replacement.
otherwise you end up with another six years of…just another mouth breather
we have a minority in the house and senate..we have exactly two governor’s who are fighters.
I can assure you I am NOT big tent, all comers, pollywank.
the circumstances now are quite different than post 2016…
my point is that every effort must be made to work smartly within the existing ranks.
I know full well Paul’s failings.
he has established himself however as THE ONLY SINGLE official in DC to take on doctor Moreau and call him out with some very good facts on national tv
so I trust him…no.
so I think he can be forced to.play ball?
maybe…but I just think it’s going to work.bt mocking him.
that’s my point…I can live with maintaining a maga goal that includes using people like Paul. I’m not fixated on that either.
I just don’t see anyone who would win his seat again at him.
do you? dies anyone have a candidate they believe is even remotely competitive for his seat ?
I think that’s where I stand in this.. I’ll definitely change my mind if we start naming candidates who are well qualified and competitive.
just saying get rid of Paul because he’s not acceptable isn’t going to solve anything….it’s the Congressional Vote you are after!!! and the donor money
And your projecting again, where is it mentioned he wants to replace Mr Rand.
“in no small way, by insulting Paul, trump is insulting donors who out up a million clams.”
Ummmm… turn your own argument around. Trump supported his candidate first and Paul attempted to undermine him AND flush a million dollars that could have been used in the general to win.
Think about it. Paul is actively working against the ONLY guy who has the support, the voters, the energy and the machine to bring home the bacon.
If Paul (like Graham and all the other posers) wasn’t too often AWOL when actual votes are needed then I might be fooled.
Trump is a rock star. Only an idiot would not want his mojo on their side. Paul’s desire to push him away says all you need to know.
Now Paul makes sweet noise about what he WANTs to do for COVID. Why on earth do you think he will actually deliver anything but more talk?
Trump is a doer, full stop. The man did not have to contend with the perpetual talk a good game and not deliver crowd until he tried politics.
When he dealt with those that might have tried it as a businessman he could terminate the association.
Politics is different.
I think it’s why he is working so hard now to pave the way to get people in place that share a doing agenda.
Will he be right all the time, nope.
But I expect it’ll be a lot better than supporting the happy to be in the majority and fritter it away crowd. Aka the we like to be the minority and rake in tons of money and really get nothing done but sputter about outrages we have no intention of addressing.
because until NOW he’s not felt the real political maga heat that’s why.
there were never any consequences for Paul’s many terrible decisions.
now that he’s stumping soon fire a reelection bid, trump steps up with the nuance of a hard left jab and outs him squarely on notice.
timing…trump knows ..I am ONLY worried it might send Paul’s voting base and donors into paralysis about becoming full fledged team maga…we can’t afford to have a large number of potential maga team get sullied.
the thing about building maga and expanding it must be done smartly and with great care…
So that is why Mr Rand did what he did, OK,
“I am ONLY worried it might send Paul’s voting base and donors into paralysis about becoming full fledged team maga…we can’t afford to have a large number of potential maga team get sullied.”
So no consequences to “Paul’s many terrible decisions” is a good reason for him to stay where he is and keep doing what he’s doing (i.e., screwing us over)?
Here’s a thought: Maybe it’s time to replace Paul with someone who does what’s right for the people, not because he or she is forced to, but because it’s the right thing to do!
Your logic is AWOL!
I agree, but no matter how bad Paul is, there are about 30 Republican who are worse! Lets get rid of Cheney, Mittens, Colins, Lisa Murkey, Toomey, Barr, Tillis, Sasse, the guy from LA etc. A lot of work for MAGA!
replace him with who?
name the competitor that has the right stuff and can win.
I’ll wait.
look I get it .. Paul is asshoe…
but until WE find a candidate that can be effective… maybe a good idea is to push Paul closer to useful.
he can be useful…
my bet is president trump knows this…pushing Paul like a boss is not subtle.
Paul is waking up to new realities…like Cheney!
lets give it some time..funny things happen I’m DC.
on a dime Paul can pivot if he feels his seat is threatened.
no different than any other.
Well Sundance and President Trump know hot to bring out the fakes. All Mr Rand needed to do was nothing, which he did not do.
“[H]e’s probably sabotaging us by supporting a RINO.”
This makes you sound paranoid and judgmental.
Why do you imagine Ron Hood is a squish? Did you trouble yourself to read his website before trashing him? Did you follow his political career? Unlike Trump, Ron Hood has been a fighter for gun rights.
“America’s future is on the line. Hate-America leftists are trying to take this country down and go-along-to-get-along career politicians like Liz Cheney and Mitt Romney won’t stop them. Fighters will.
We must fight to build the wall, protect the unborn, defend our gun rights, promote American businesses and bring jobs back, oppose endless war, stop our enemies like China, and defend the American worker!
I am the America First Republican running and I pledge to do just that—never stop fighting for AMERICA FIRST.”
Ron Hood and Rand Paul have been impugned by the political Left throughout their careers. What does it say about you when you join the pile-on?
Donald Trump has repeatedly failed to recruit the best personnel to defend the nation and our Constitution from attack. It looks like he has failed again.
The problem is the “Splitter Strategy” as Sundance often states. We need to get behind ONE MAGA candidate in the primary, not two or three or six. If we don’t the RINOs keep getting renominated and re-elected. Its Politics 101. What was Paul trying to accomplish by NOT backing Trump’s choice? Its only one seat, and if Hood is truly a good MAGA candidate he can run again.
Why is it so hard for R’s and the Center-right to show some political discipline. With the D’s Biden/Schumer/Pelosi lay down the law and everyone marches behind them in support. With the R’s we have senators/congressmen wanting to impeach an R President! We have the R’s at State, local, and the Federal level breaking ranks on key votes and helping the D’s. And they rarely get any blowback. Its crazy.
Ron Hood is the most reliable Ohio conservative since Robert Taft.
His nomination should have been backed by Trump.
‘Nuff said.
Rand doesn’t care about that wasted million dollars. It wasn’t his, it was ours.
Tough words onehorse, but have to agree, with our country being on the verge of losing our personal rights and freedoms, 1/6 political prisoners still locked up, if this is DJT’s focus, may he return to his private life, live long and well.
Onehorse, offcoursenation and oldschool…. Maybe y’all should get a room, throw down a few, and have a proper anti-Trump party. Oh, and don’t forget to invite osi.
when one cannot debate, they go personal.
Projection
Hehe. I thot the same until it dawned on me.
I don’t think they are that anti-Trump. I think they are the Rand Paul Fan Club.
I think they are ticked that RP was gigged by PDJT.
Are you serious? He worked to get the right person elected in OH.
Its healthy barb about Rand backing the wrong one and wasting a MILLION dollars.
He is certainly capable of focusing on state level elections, the fact the Communists are destroying our country, as well as a host of other issues— large and small.
When $1 million means nothing to Rand Paul, you know something is up.
Glad you picked up on that.
It seems like the donation requests are always in my mail.
No
Absolute Truth Onehorse. I will support anyone who understands this and has the courage to take a stand. Right now, it is Rand and Desantis. I see no one else.
I love a stand that covers up doing nothing and a career of zero action.
You got a link to a single accomplishment other than hot gas from the mini man?
Because De Santis has a LOT in very little time. I want to see if lumping mini man with De Santis makes sense or if he belongs in VikingMom’s Trey Gowdy trash can instead.
He only ever adhered to his principles when it involved screwing the rest of us over. Same with Scalise. He gets shot, Trump sticks up for him. Guy ends up screwing him over too. The backstabbers deserve the worst of what’s coming. They’re the main reason things have gotten so bad.
From the moment Trump announced Warp Speed and how he was going to cut red tape on developing a vaccine, I knew how potentially dangerous that could be. Never did I imagine this nightmare.
The entire country, most of the world was in lockdown.
Warp Speed was the only way to stop the lockdowns.
Rand Paul wont do anything for the peaceful protestors turned political hostages. Coward.
Why doesn’t the mainstream media show this?
https://rumble.com/vks2al-why-doesnt-the-mainstream-media-show-this-oh-wait-never-mind.html
“Rand Paul wont do anything for the peaceful protestors turned political hostages. Coward.
And Trump hardly ever even mentions them. They both should sound off on it, loudly and often.
Senator Rand Paul
@RandPaul
·Jul 27
BLM rioter punched a police officer in the face requiring surgical repair. Punishment? Released on his own recognizance! Non-violent trespassing in Capitol on January 6th? Solitary confinement without parole! Double standard? You bet!
Miss all ya teepers I’ve stepped out.
Nothing changes the more ya know the more your disappointed.
??♂️Ya can’t change it.
For instance
Arizona is a shit show.
They won’t enforce a subpoena. Talk talk talk keep ya strung along. Talk talk talk.
Coulda done been done enforce the Subpoena.
Agin they could actually stop talking and do something.
Easy peasy. Yet they don’t.
All theater… ??♂️ Ridiculous.
Hmmmm, do you know Howie?
I believe he went with who he thought best and if he keeps up the fight like he has been with fraudulent Fauci, then one mistake on a candidate I’d ok with me
Cruz and Rand joined up on some bad endorsements too. Someone reminded me of that.
Anyway.
Nobody does this whole thing funnier.
At least with Trump this horrible fight has fun moments.
I love him.
I still think Trump Media needs to happen, then we all coalesce there.
Trump knows how to let talent emerge and you’d see this site, GP and some stars coming together.
He can’t be boring. It’s absent from his DNA so the whole thing would be fun.
If Bloomberg can abuse media to get himself in government why can’t someone interesting who has actual talent and is for the people do it?
President Trump needs an editor.
Lol, yeah, we’ve never heard that before.
Laura Ingraham has that Dr Byram Bridle on again
He’s explaining what’s driving the variants,
Midterm
Duh
I’m sure her staff reads SD yet somehow the truth never makes her airwaves anymore …
But I hear fear sells so I feel confident the FOX end of Unimedia will have something scary to peddle
I always wonder how you can be so boring yet a mass murdering fear monger at the same time but the old timey dinosaur media has it down pat

Get on ………………. and stay on ………………… the TRUMP TRAIN baby!
Rand has his moments, especially with Fauxci. He plays him like a kitten with a ball of yarn. Rand
Paul is a real practicing doctor; Fauxci joined the goob’mint to stay out of Vietnam. No one remembers him ever seeing a patient.
He’s seen patients all over the world and had his own practice.
I have an 85 yr old neighbor who had Fauci as a doctor way back when she was a little kid so he apparently did practice way back in his beginning career.
