"SNIP......

Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) “said he hopes truckers would come to the United States as soon as this weekend to clog up streets in Los Angeles during the Super Bowl or next month to Washington,” the Washington Post reports.

Said Paul: “I’m all for it. Civil disobedience is a time-honored tradition in our country, from slavery to civil rights to you name it. Peaceful protest, clog things up, make people think about the mandates.”

He added: “I hope the truckers do come to America, and I hope they clog up cities.”

1. What is wrong with this guy?

[Rebl2]

11. Brain damage?

21. Disruption and chaos benefit Authoritarian politics.

It's Putin's entire strategy for dealing with the West. He suppresses any hint of it at home.

The GQP has decided that's their approach as well. Gum up the works; make things as miserable as possible for all. Hurt the Supply Chain, drive more Inflation.

[BlueIdaho]

24. This - exactly.

People like Rand hate democracy and so they fuel the kind of right wing populism that enflames the useful idiots in a hope they can dismantle the government and install a junta that will create a Republican oligarchy.

34. Genetics?

2. I really hope things like this make libertarian plutocrats rethink

their lives. Rand Paul sure does want people to die which the mandates try to stop.

[I_UndergroundPanther]

3. I hate to say it

The police shoots one of those fucking truckers and they will all hightail it out of there because shit just got real and they're cowards.

[LoisB]

4. I would suggest that they NOT come to Los Angeles at any time, not just Super Bowl.

Rand Paul is an idiot! People like him sure root against the U.S.

[KarenS]

5. I just feel like a spectator and we're watching a really bad play,,,,

nothing makes sense or is logical,,,, I cannot believe what is happening nor can I predict what is going to happen,,,,
I cannot even get up and leave,,,,

[Walleye]

9. That is a good analogy

[Wicked Blue]

6. Perhaps his brain is clogged

with chewed-up documents from TFG

[Blue Owl]

7. Rand Paul urges tRumpers to clog up toilets

[keithbvadu2]

8. The cities in KY?

[Diamond_Dog]

10. I don't remember

this nitwit saying how much he loves civil disobedience when the BLM protests were going on ….

[Chainfire]

12. Does he have any particular issue in mind or is it just a random act of civil vandalism he wants?

If they cause problems at the Super Bowl, big money will have them disappeared.

[EndlessWire]

13. This guy is a traitor.

We could be on the brink of a WW, and this ahole is urging truckers to clog up our infrastructure. Can you see this any other way? Even if we were trying to sit out a WW, this would severely impact our nation and its integrity.

Civil disobedience for WHAT? FOR WHAT?? Because we have Covid19 present and we want to stop it? The Trump Party is a vicious, fascist, antiAmerican POS! This guy is an example of a selfish, tRump-sucking, nonthinking piece of trash. White trash, all the way.

[rockfordfile]

25. I agree

[calimary]

14. Your hometown first, Rand.

[Hugin]

15. Eh, more projection.

Dude... Exlax, it is OTC.

[SharonClark]

17. He's a traitor. What the truckers are doing

is not civil disobedience. The truckers are using huge weapons (trucks) to blockade the movement of other people and disrupt commerce.

[Docreed2003]

18. Funny how these hypocrites are all about their type of "civil disobedience"

When BLMs protestors were taking to the streets across the US, plenty of Rand Paul types were all over the rw airwaves encouraging drivers to "run them down". Now some areas are passing laws legalizing that crap. Their hypocrisy is stunning and yet so predictable

[Mossfern]

19. Take away his toilet paper!

Let him know that it's sitting on a protest truck.
What an ignorant jerk apparently voted in by equally idiotic jerks.

[kairos12]

20. It's no wonder

somebody kicked the shit out of him.

22. 🤞

[Busterscruggs]

23. Lightning

Is known to strike twice. Maybe the next one will knock some sense into him. Was it his neighbor who took a stand against his boorish behavior?

[Golden Raisin]

26. Start with Louisville, Lexington, Bowling Green

and Frankfort. Is there something in the water in Kentucky? The state that has given us and continues to re-elect Mitch McConnell and Rand Paul? Two of the absolute worst and most reprehensible.

[DFW]

31. It's not the individual. It's the generic brand.

As long as there is an « R » in front of the name, in Kentucky, a diseased raccoon would be the odds-on favorite to win election to the United States Senate.

[waterwatcher123]

27. How about a blockade of Rand Paul's house?

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

28. I encourage his neighbors to have another confrontation with him

[LetMyPeopleVote]

29. Rand Paul is a fountain of bad ideas,

[electric_blue68]

30. "civil disobedience time honored tradition" & "slavery to civil rights" in the...

in the same sentence from Rand Paul.




I don't think so!!!!!

[Hassler]

32. When it's white bros, Klan Paul supports them.

[Caliman73]

33. If they go to Los Angeles...

How will we be able to tell between the protest and just the average day in LA?

They might just be on the 60, the 101, the 10, the 5, the 134, etc...

I guess they can call them all protests.

[the_sly_pig]

35. Rand Paul is a chode.
