I pick Rand because he is the only one currently speaking against Biden & Comey (democrats) in a time that would blackball.

The rest are scared silent


You must not be listening ...... Gaetz is being very vocal.

Until election reform is passed with the right controls in place....it's a HUGE waste of time.

Honestly....the DEMS are stockpiling votes by the second while we are holding pat at best.

What on earth?

He's like a poster boy for LL Bean sports coats, and Brooks Brother's ties.

No one is asking you to kiss him.

Maybe you haven't noticed, but the last four years we've had a president who needs a barber with an engineering degree to fix his hair, and spray tans himself a tangerine hue. GTFO.

You could get Christ himself to run for POTUS as a Republican and he would still lose. First of all you have to get the voting system changed which ain’t happening. What may be the biggest problem for Republicans is the party is deeply split into and Republican moral among the voting public is at an all time low. People will not show up to the polls to support another Bush or McCain style Republican. There may be a major push among the Trump wing of the party to show up in the primary and vote out establishment Republicans. But if a RINO wins the primary then the Trump wing will stay home and not vote. It’s just that simple. Why should people vote in this current environment anyway. As long as mail in voting on a massive scale exists then the Dems will win anyway. Why should folks waste time to go vote for a Dem light RINO Republican when we all know what the outcome would be anyway. Not to mention there is not much difference between the Dems and the Rinos anyway.

He's a libertarians, and according to MSNBC, are lumped in with racists, domestic terrorists and insurrectionists.

He will be chased out of DC before the year is up.

Rand was my preference in 2016. This board will rant about conservatives not governing like conservatives and succumbing to establishment and left wing pressure and then shoot down Rand because he isn't stylish or flashy enough. Amazing.

Before Trump it was Rand that the entire Republican establishment and Fox News dismissed because he broke from dogmatic and demonstrably failed neocon foreign policy. Then Trump came in and effectively embraced the same foreign policy and Republican masses suddenly came around.

One of our biggest problems is that our own electorate shoots us in the foot everytime and then bitches about the people THEY voted for.

It's DeSantis or I'm staying home next time. How sad is it that the bar is set at "Didn't suspend civil liberties for any longer than was absolutely necessary?" No businesses being forced to close since the spring. No sweeping statewide mask bullshite (leave it up to the cities and businesses instead). No sending covid patients to nursing homes to murder our seniors.

To me, Rand was maybe the most staunch Anti-Trump candidate for the GOP primaries for 2016 and was the only exciting candidate to represent a modern conservative party, IMO. Post-election he turned into Trump's shill with a quickness.

So, he's just as fake as the others you mention, but in the way you prefer?

Rand Paul is a squish. He says all the right things and makes his principled stand right up until he folds. Every time. He's a running joke.

Rand can’t win.

I think he’d be a good president but he is a terrible campaigner.

He speaks in ideas and plans, not catchy sound bites. The average idiot voter can’t pay attention enough to listen and digest what he is saying.

He has the right ideas but he doesn't have the showbiz part.

Trump was masterful at the showbiz.
