    Trump lying is a communicable Republican disease.

    Rand Paul is awful, but I do wish the BLM protesters would QUIT GIVING TRUMP AMMUNITION.

    It's like two dumbass frontal systems converging.

    Give Trump no bullets, he has to fire blanks.

    What do you think that mob would have done to Rand if police weren't there?

    Pand Paul has been shot at and had a guy attack him on his own front lawn who put him in the hospital. But sure, he's a pansy.

    The left wants to push the notion that surrounding someone with a mob, preventing their freedom of movement, and screaming in their face is a "peaceful protest". Voters won't see it that way.

    He was attacked in his own driveway by an 50 year old
    man over a landscaping dispute, American Hero

    Boucher, who according to court documents "had enough" of Paul’s yard maintenance habits after he saw him stacking brush into a pile on his own lawn that was near Boucher's property. Boucher then ran onto Paul's property and tackled him. Boucher was charged with assaulting a member of Congress as part of a federal plea agreement.

    I don't have any solid reason to doubt that Rand Paul was attacked, or at least believes he was, but then why isn't the White House exits secured enough to protect people coming in and out?

    I saw the security for the RNC first hand when it was held at the Xcel Center in St. Paul. There were protests but there was plenty of security going into and out of the Xcel Center.

    He brought this upon himself. In a way, it's akin to Kyle Rittenhouse. Central theme: putting yourself in a situation where things could get dangerous, when you don't need to.

    He was at Trump hotel (Antioch, Illinois), but decided he wanted to return to his own hotel, so he took an Uber. Upon the Uber being stopped by protestors, he got out of his car to walk to his own hotel (going to Kenosha), which meant he placed himself amongst and angry group of protestors when he didn't have to.

    Why are these idiots injecting themselves into this?

    "Protesters Tell Rand Paul, Who Wrote the Justice for Breonna Taylor Act, To Say Breonna Taylor's Name":

    https://reason.com/2020/08/28/rand-paul-breonna-taylor-rnc-protesters-say-her-name/

    excerpt:

    It's notable that the protesters repeatedly shouted at Paul to "say her name." The her in question is Breonna Taylor, a woman who police killed during a no-knock raid on her home in the middle of the night on March 13. Taylor is an unambiguous victim of police violence and of unnecessary Drug War tactics, and protesters are right to demand justice for her.

    Paul, though, has done much more than just saying Taylor's name: He sponsored the Justice for Breonna Taylor Act, which would prohibit no-knock raids.

    "After talking with Breonna Taylor's family, I've come to the conclusion that it's long past time to get rid of no-knock warrants," said Paul back in June. "This bill will effectively end no-knock raids in the United States."​

    Rand Superspreader Paul now wearing a mask after he went for a swim in the Senate Pool with a positive COVID19 test.

    Good stuff, Rand.

    Those were clearly overzealous fans of Rand fighting to get an autograph or touch their hero -- no different than Justin Bieber wading through a crowd after a show.
