Looks Like Rand Paul & Trump Are Buddies Now

[ProBlue33]

Go to the 56:45-60 minute mark, don't waste a ton of time.
Notice the first handshake and then the respectful and affectionate double pat from Trump.



Maybe Rand can influence him for the better, we can always hope.

 

[euphemia]

It's good that they are talking.

 

[TheTexan]

Are they becoming besties?

Maybe a Trump / Paul ticket for 2020 ???

Absolutely.

Around 1:01:59 - Trump says, "How 'bout we hear from one of the miners? I hear these guys all the time! I hear Rand all the time!" and hits him in the arm. Yeah, seems like he's getting to know Rand, hopefully realizing he's one of the smarter ones.

(So, this video doesn't show anything at all till almost 57 minutes. I gave up trying to watch it earlier today, 'cause I figured it was somehow unplayable.)

damn its still so surreal that this guy is president.

As much as I would love it, I don't think Rand is gonna be doing that much influencing on Trump. Best chance for us is that we have some liberty allies close to Trump like Mick Mulvaney and Bannon is some sort of fan of Ron/Rand Paul and understands the principles we care about.

Trump yelling out, "I hear Rand all the time" is probably a good thing, meaning whatever he is saying on TV is getting through and sticking. Probably because of the Obamacare issue where Trump saw him on TV and called him.

Also on Morning Joe when Rand influenced Trump not to pick Elliot Abrams, because he was a NeverTrumper and didn't believe in Trump's foreign policy.

Send him a tweet asking to endorse Rand's plan.

he who shall not be named

Also on Morning Joe when Rand influenced Trump not to pick Elliot Abrams, because he was a NeverTrumper and didn't believe in Trump's foreign policy.

Hillariously, Elliot Abrams is pretending otherwise - claiming Steve Bannon is the reason he lost the appontment.

“The only person on the White House staff that I know was opposed to my being hired was Steve Bannon so that’s my guess,” Abrams told CNN’s Erin Burnett in an interview on Monday. “It’s a guess.”

Ha!Ha! You neocons tried to destroy Ron Paul, and now here's Ron's boy kicking your ass out of the White House!

So great!

Well I hope that Rand can convince Trump to not name Bolton as national security advisor.

Trump knows he has to throw the libertarian wing some bones in hopes that we pipe down and let them continue to carry out the larger bankster agenda on their own narrative. Trump is controlled and doing what he's told to.

Well I hope that Rand can convince Trump to not name Bolton as national security advisor.

Oh jeez you're back?

 

[anaconda]

Trump did the "yank-on-the-hand" handshake to Rand but not to any subsequent hand shakers. Psychological analyses welcome.

 

[Brett85]

Oh jeez you're back?

Oh jeez you're still here?

 

[nikcers]

So you think it's a good idea for Trump to pick Bolton as national security adviser? Interesting?

Welcome back to the forum, isn't Ted Cruz the one pushing for Bolton? If I recall correctly...
