This isn’t socialism it’s just taxes, or welfare. Of course the American system thinks welfare is socialism so there’s that.

I find it extremely incredulous he doesn’t have enough money from his Russian overlords.

Then again it’s probably now all going to Trump’s legal troubles.

Rand Paul is very little more than a Conservative, there's absolutely nothing Libertarian about him or his beliefs.

I actually feel sorry for his dad.

I didn't agree a whole lot with Ron, but I had respect for him. Though I didn't necessarily share his principles, they were obviously deeply held and sincere.

Rand, on the other hand, appears to have no meaningful principles at all, and I can't work out if it's because he's too dishonest or too stupid, and I have the sneaking suspicion it's actually both.

Ron is also consistent, he doesn't like the government so he actively fights against it (including for gay rights). Meanwhile Rand wants to use the government to enforce his own political ideology.
