Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) on Monday blasted Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) for drafting an authorization for the use of military force (AUMF) in North Korea should President Trump’s forthcoming meeting with Kim Jong Un go south.

“Lindsey Graham is a danger to the country by even proposing ideas like authorizing war with Korea,” Paul said on CNN.

“So that should be something that is seen as naive and seen as something that really serious people shouldn’t even be discussing,” he added.

McCain: I am trying everything to #### Trump up on Twitter. But you have to do better, my friend.
Because once I am gone, you have no power. I want you to tell Trump that I want you on that plane to Singapore.

[conservative98]

It's true. I am a danger to my own country.

[Sacajaweau]

Just shut up!!

[Pravious]

Is that picture taken in a men’s room?

[Bratch]

He’s trolling.

[BenLurkin]

This may backfire on Graham if the President does in fact need an authrorization.

Lindsey Graham has been a danger to the country since he was elected to the Senate.

He will continue to be a danger to the country until he is removed from office.

I suspect Graham has discussed this with Trump. It won’t hurt DJT’s negotiating power to have this suggestion circulating in public.

Thanks Rand....

Trump will order any actions necessary without your input.

[Aevery_Freeman]

A cogent response, thank you.

Plus, in the event of an extreme act of God or Man, we're covered - Pence it is.

Lindsey Graham is deep state. Been obvious for years. This is his attempt to Make Kim nervous and therefore sabotage the meeting. I don’t think it is going to work.

I hope that Huber has your name Mr Graham.

I tend to dismiss Rand Paul because his daddy is certifiable. But I have no dispute with him on this opinion.

[The_Media_never_lie]

Thank the RINO Republican Party for keeping Graham in office.

George Washington, James Madison and the rest of the framers of the US Constitution say Rand Paul and Congress have the say deciding whether the nation goes to war. I hold George Washington in higher esteem than I do Lindsey Graham.

[Colonel Kangaroo]

I am afraid Bolton also has been trying to sabotage the talks also with his Libya talk. And Trump and Pompeo have had to freeze Bolton out of the Korea negotiations and planning.

[TigersEye]

Graham is talking about congressional authorization to go to war like all the others you mentioned.

There’s Bolton with Trump in Singapore. How is he being frozen out?

[Colonel Kangaroo]

The national security advisor has to travel with the president. It does not mean that Trump and Pompeo have not frozen him out of the Korea work. There are rumors that Pompeo has put Bolton in his place concerning these negotiations and we've not heard much on the subject from Bolton since his Libya talk.

[TigersEye]

That is certainly what all the MSM-13 media outlets are saying about Bolton.
