Ron Paul calls Donald Trump a �dangerous� authoritarian: �The opposite of a Libertarian�
Washington Times ^ | 7/16/15 | Jessica Chasmar

Former Republican Rep. Ron Paul on Wednesday blasted GOP presidential hopeful Donald Trump as a “dangerous” authoritarian on a power trip who won’t value civil liberties the way a U.S. president should.

“I think he’s is a dangerous person,” saidMr. Paul, whose son, Sen. Rand Paul is running against Mr. Trump for the Republican presidential nomination.

“And a lot of people find him sort of funny, and love him, even Libertarian types,” Mr. Paul, who is now a registered Libertarian, lamented on Fox News Radio. “They like him because he’s so disruptive to the party system, and I enjoy that too. But I think he’s a man that if conditions deteriorate, which they can — see I work on the assumption that the world is no more stable than Greece, and if those conditions come, people want to be told what to do: ‘And I know what the answer is, and I’ll do this, and I am the man to this.’

Lots of ad hominem but none of them want to debate the issues.

I guess since he couldn’t run against his own son, he found another way to embarrass himself.

All I’ve heard from Trump is razor sharp hardcore logic and common sense. If that is “authoritarian” then I am all for it.

Don’t worry Ron those black helicopters hovering over your house are not owned or were sent over by Trump Enterprises.

Obama is authoritarian with a capital “A”. Whatever the law says, he just sails right past it and does what he pleases.

And congress sits on its hands and lets him. Washington may as well be Caracas.
