He certainly isn't as obstinate as his father was...
But I'm not ready to put Rand in the same category with Mitch just yet.
Not every politician who disappoints me is literally Hitler. I have more independent thought than that.
No one will ever be able to assume my support because of my skin color, gender, hair style, favorite submachinegun, or any other identity politics frivolity.
Likewise, I will not write off people who appear to be genuinely well intentioned simply because they failed to do exactly what I want in every instance.
I have watched Rand make very courageous stands on unpopular points that no one else would defend. He has earned my respect for that.
I'm not ready to follow him blindly, but he's better than about 98% of the DC politicians of my lifetime.
I've sort of come to realize that up at that high level of government is not where fraud should be dealt with. The fraud was administered on the level of precincts, not at the level of the federal government. At that high level, anything one might try gets caught up in bureacracy, and just generates noise.
People here were turning to the federal government, the most unreliable part of the State, hoping that our interests would be represented. If the fraud were to have been fixed, there were 0 instances that it would be fixed at the federal level. 'Stop the Steal' was dead when the judges ruled 'no standing'. For people like Rand Paul to try and fix fraud would mean tearing the already flimsy federal government apart.

While this is true, with no voting integrity, we might as well have Idi Amin, Saddam Hussein, Adolf Hitler or Stalin running for office.
We have zero representation of the voters in the oval office. What we have is a deep state plant. Rand might as well be smoking Meth with Hunter Biden if he doesn't care about election integrity. Everything will fall to the wayside, if that isn't restored. Everything
Controlled opposition. Used to think highly of the man. Ron must be disappointed. He's nothing like him.

Finally some critical thinking
He alone named He That Cannot Be Named. And he did it on the Senate floor. Earned my respect with that.
He's demonstrated brass knockers on more than one occasion...
Which is part of why his certification vote is so confusing. I'd like to hear his side of that story in a private setting...

Who's that? Jinping?

No one else in DC?
I hope you realize how low that bar is
I really like Rand. He's easily top 5 in the Senate as far as principled and honest politicians go (but it's obviously a short list).
Stfu. There is a spectrum of allies. Just because a Rand Paul is only a 8/10 doesnt mean hes a 0/10.
He fcked Ron over..... There's a reason why he's in and Ron is out.
Maybe not controlled opposition but anyone who did not support Trumps election fraud claims should receive zero support from us
