Paul said he didn’t appreciate the incident, but that it was an important moment highlighting the libertarian views held by him and his son. However, he said he would have much rather seen a debate about ending the Federal Reserve, a long-championed position.
“I don’t like the bickering back and forth,” he said. “I think it was significant debate: one person blasting those of us who believe in liberty and saying you shouldn’t be that critical of the government, that is significant, but still again two politicians going at it — I would much rather talk about why we should have a Fed or why we shouldn’t.”
