Who are you referring to?

You.

“He’d be a great asset to Trump.”

He would double the waste with his Green New Deal initiatives.

“Warming up to him doesn’t mean voting for him. “

Warming up to him means you are agreeing to his policies.

Schumer runs the Senate with an iron hand.

The Senate Minority Leader job is a learning opportunity only.

The welfare state as we know it is not going away in the USA. Republicans will only get to fine tune it.

As one of the few “smaller government conservatives” in Congress, he’s already had that target from both sides.

“Should any political party attempt to abolish social security unemployment insurance and eliminate labor laws and farm programs you would not hear of that party again in our political history. There is a tiny splinter group of course that believes you can do these things. Among them are a few other Texas oil millionaires and an occasional politician or business man from other areas. Their number is negligible and they are stupid.”

― Dwight D. Eisenhower

The federal monster has even more claws nowadays.

The main goal is to achieve victory come November.

Rand Paul will only help Democrats raise campaign money. Schumer runs the Senate. The Senate Minority Leader watches helplessly.

“Mitch McConnell, who has served in the Senate for almost 40 years”

When I hear the phrase “has served” in regards to any politician, I always mentally add “himself” to the phrase.

I.E. “has served himself”

This thread reads like we should say no to Rand Paul because RFK Jr endorsed him. LOL.

Lets not get a conservative GOP Senate leader because as minority leader they cannot do anything anyway./Sarcasm

As fake republicans (really democrats), we need someone like Cornyn, who will continue the fine GOP tradition of reaching across the aisle and bending over./more sarcasm

RFK Jr. is throwing us a bone. Rand won’t happen-not running. RFK Jr. can say that and it won’t cost him anything. Raise eyebrows-he needs that.

I thought Ted Cruz would run for it. He’d be my choice.

You’re just saying that because Rand Paul refuses to bow the knee to King Zelenskyyyyy. Paul is not a fan of stealing the livelihood of Americans in order to pay the pensions of Ukrainians.

Rand Paul is one of the very few Pro-American lawmakers in Washington.

Your TDS is getting old. You sound like a broken record.

Are you proud to be a Bidenista traitor?
