Rand Paul worries Dems want to ‘soften the amount of suffering’ from job losses
Published 1 min ago on August 19, 2020By Matthew Chapman

On Wednesday, during a Fox News interview, Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) argued that it would be problematic if the government did too much to “soften the amount of suffering” from the job losses around the country — because then governors wouldn’t feel an urgency to reopen the economy and would wait for the threat of COVID-19
Rand Paul worries Dems want to ‘soften the amount of suffering’ from job losses.

“If you give people money and you make it less painful to be in a recession, we can stay in a recession longer. The recession is created by the government. The government shut the economy,” said Paul, in an interview reported by Axios. “So all of these governors, Democrat and Republican, will not have an incentive to open the economy if you soften the amount of suffering that they have created."

[underpants]

1. From a guy named after Ayn Rand

How about that.

[SheltieLover]

3. Really?

I guess his parents pegged him right away.

[JHB]

18. His father is Ron Paul, who was a fan...

...as well as another libertarian ideologue grifter.

[SheltieLover]

19. Eeeewwww!

Ty for sharing.

[Maru Kitteh]

30. Ron Paul used to attend meetings in Ayn Rand's living room.

seriously

[SheltieLover]

35. OMG!

[PatSeg]

2. Oh, this from a guy

who probably never wanted for anything his entire life. What does he know about "painful" or job loss or suffering? People are unemployed through no fault of their own and many face the prospect of homelessness, something I'm sure Rand never has had to face. People are suffering enough and he wants to make sure it is more painful.

[SheltieLover]

4. Right!

Pos!

[Buckeyeblue]

9. But he knows what it feels like to have his ass kicked.

[Blue_true]

12. Unfortunately, COVID19 let him off the hook. nt

[PatSeg]

17. Hopefully

some day at the ballot box as well.

Can you imagine knowing someone like that in real life? I don't suppose he actually has any real friends. Such a pissy little jerk.

[Buckeyeblue]

20. His only friends are paid aids...

I honestly don't understand how someone like him appeals to Kentuckians.

[PatSeg]

27. I remember being shocked

when he was first elected. Such an oddball, even McConnell couldn't stand him.

[SheltieLover]

22. Yuk

I had a repuke tell me "I know trump is a really horrible human being but he is better than the wealth redistribution Dems want."

Almost barfed in his face.

[PatSeg]

28. Yeah

I don't understand that mentality or the people who only vote based on the issue of abortion. So many people have no idea how government works, yet feel qualified to pick our leaders. We need more required courses in school that cover government and political science.

[SheltieLover]

29. I agree!

Of course the sob is obscenely wealthy & as narcissistic as agent orange.

So, of course, I avoid him & his narcissistic family, some of which are not quite as bad, but just yuk.

[PatSeg]

32. So you are in Kentucky?

[SheltieLover]

34. No

TN. Was referring to previous post about a tRumpite's comments.

Guy said tRump is a really horrible person, but better than "wealth redistribution Dems push."

[PatSeg]

37. So you're in the neighborhood then

I see what you're saying. For a minute I thought you were talking about Rand Paul's family.

[SheltieLover]

38. Likely same attitude

Revolting, especially as that was his follow up comment to me raising issue of children in cages!

[PatSeg]

40. My ex husband lives in a small town

in Tennessee and it is clearly a different world.

[SheltieLover]

41. It certainly is.

Hell on Earth.

[belpejic]

25. F**king Aqua Buddha sure does.

What an entitled little shit, who never grew intellectually after the age of 13 (maybe because he started hitting Aqua Buddha especially hard then?), who never had to endure hardship of any sort, who gets to claim that he's a "doctor" because he has a certificate from some Trump University in the Caribbean, and yes, who very publicly got his ass kicked recently and who probably got his ass kicked many times before that.

What is the appeal of this clueless loser? He serves no good purpose whatsoever, and brings no value to the people of Kentucky.

Sorry for my rant, but this one really gets my goat.

[SheltieLover]

31. I have to wonder

Whether KY voters are paying attention & tying him to MM? 🤞

[still_one]

5. Calling rand Paul's neighbor

[SheltieLover]

7. 🤣🤣🤣

[oasis]

6. If Paul's neighbor should get hold of 1/2 gallon of Jack Daniels,

I'll be rooting against "softening the suffering".

[SheltieLover]

8. Lol

👍

[Blue_true]

10. You just can't predict what COVID19 will do.

It had that asshole in it’s sight and let him go. And he became even more of an asshole.

[SheltieLover]

11. I know

😏

[gratuitous]

13. How many paychecks have you missed this year, Rand?

How many days this year have you actually reported for work?

[SheltieLover]

15. And how many days

Has he faced being homeless?

[unblock]

14. More people must die! Then America will have the proper incentives to make a cure!

[SheltieLover]

16. I have to wonder

If he hears himself when he talks? 😳

[Laelth]

21. What a F***ING BASTARD.

I hope for instant Karma. I wish upon Rand Paul the pain he is so casually willing to inflict upon others.



-Laelth

[SheltieLover]

23. +1,000!

Karma is a bitch, that is for sure.

Surreal, this attitude among repukes.

[Volaris]

24. Well that's some straight up Galt's Gulch level sociopathy, right fuckin there.

Welcome to Rapture, City Beneath the Sea. Now get back to your suffering, you Dirty Poors.

[Meadowoak]

26. Worry about your own un-employment benefits, Rand Paul, you are going to need them real soon.

[SheltieLover]

33. I hope KY voter are aware!

And tying these remarks to chumputin & MM! 🤞👍

[GopherGal]

36. Guilty!

Dems want to 'soften the amount of suffering' from job losses

He sincerely says that like it's a bad thing. Disgusting.

[SheltieLover]

39. IKR?

Does he hear himself when he speaks?

[BusyBeingBest]

42. Burn in hell, psycho.
