Rand's Awful Timing Continues...

[RonPaulMall]

Days after he suggests the GOP does a "Black Lives Matter" debate, the Black Lives Matter stages a high profile stunt at the University of Missouri that reminds the entire GOP electorate why they hate that group so much. You would have thought Rand would have learned his lesson by now:

Rand would mop the floor with the other candidates.

I don't see the problem with him doing a debate with BLM.

Anyone who is for Black Lives Matter loses by default. Anyone who at all sympathetic to Black Lives Matter loses by default. It doesn't matter how articulate they may be. You simply out-and-out lose before the debate ever begins. Abjectly. Totally.

From the article:

Both the Democratic and Republican National Committees have agreed to promote presidential town halls set up by Black Lives Matter activists. But the movement's organizers have pushed back against the gesture and continue to demand an official presidential debate -- which tends to be more high-profile -- specifically focusing on issues of interest to the black community. (Paul has not weighed in on the debate matter.)

More from the article:

Still, Paul has been hesitant to explicitly declare support for Black Lives Matter. In August, he suggested that the movement should rename themselves "Innocent Lives Matter" or "All Lives Matter." Last month, he said he's not a "big fan" of the movement but understands why people are angry.

But on Thursday, Paul went further and said he supports much of the change the organization is calling for.

"I'm for most of the change and most of the things they have supported. I'm for the cameras," he said. "I thought the Eric Garner case and all of these other cases were just real tragedies."

I LOL'd at this part:

"Black Lives Matter" debate

It won't happen. But if Rand could influence the conversation to something rational...Nobel Peace Prize!
