Rand Paul wants to trade 5 Democrats instead of 5 Taliban.

https://mobile.twitter.com/SenRandPaul/status/475002836107816960

Between this very un-presidential statement (among many others), Ben Carson comparing ACA to 9/11 and slavery, and Ted Cruz being batshit crazy, it looks like that GOP 2016 straw poll is now moot. I can just see the attack ads now...

ETA: And they wonder why the Prez doesn't want to work with these inbred racist faketriots.

Bergdahl was imprisoned by those tough guys they are so afraid of for 5 years, and Paul wants to make jokes? The only joke is Rand Paul.
