Rand Paul: "Republicans and Democrats compromise every day of the year to spend money we don't have!"

Good for him. That won’t make any difference in the end and he can bask in his principled stand, but reality is brutal and we are at this point due to factors he has no control over.

Cutting off your nose to spite your face has never been advisable.

Yes and he says it proudly against this President when he could be more supportive when he's needed.
His 10 years of being a lone wolf got us where?
Ha ABSOLUTELY Nowhere! Rand is all about being another Maverick within the GOP stumping for his own causes that only benefits the dems! So stupid! Loss cause!

[djstex]

Me Too!
You are So Right!

Many good things can be said about Rand Paul, but money in people’s bank accounts will help Trump and Senate Republicans win the election, and that matters more than complaints about overspending.

[Arcadian Empire]

If $600 becomes $300, people will blame Trump and Republicans, and vote accordingly.

"They make President Obama look conservative."

Except that Obama would have raised taxes to 95% by now, and reinstated all the regulations undone by Trump, and would have spent 100 trillion dollars by now, including bailing out the liberal states from their decades of overspending. Obama would have put the final nail in the coffin of the U.S. In fact, those policies are exactly what Biden and AOC and all democrats promised to enact, if they got hold of the presidency and the congress.

rand is in favor of whatever gets him camera time on any significant cable news outlet.

You are making the assumption that Republicans ARE conservative.

I think that is the mistake many are making these days.

A Conservative would not sign onto a bill that gives direct payments to people, and call it a stimulus. It’s a hand out. I am sorry if you are unemployed, but giving you a cash payment every week does nothing to “stimulate” anything but the recipient. .

Exactly. Notice how he always speaks in the abstract. “Republicans”, etc. How about naming names, Rand? You know who is negotiating this in the Senate. I understand Rand has a special rule to never criticize McConnell due to being from the same state. In the end Rand is more controlled opposition unwilling to fully engage our corrupt institutions.

No, I have no delusions at all about where most Republicans stand politically.

I vote conservative in every election and that is usually also the Republican candidate, too, but I realize that that’s because there is no one else for the conservative party to endorse that any further right that a wishy washy republican.

[Theophilus]

they're so bipartisan, there isn't a sliver of daylights difference between em. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

[RandFan]

The Uniparty in all its (disgusting) glory.

He is not wrong
