It's true in the same vein AOC and a litany of her brethren are DINOs. They are communist-socialists. Rand is libertarian.


Republican in name only is a hilarious insult because Republican is only a name for a political party.

You should want every politician to have principles (ideological, religious, moral, etc) that take priority over the letter next to their name.

Maybe Rand should run for a seat in the House so he can introduce some of his spending cuts more directly.

I mean I get that he is trying to take a stand on spending, but if he is always a “nay” on bills in the name of spending, it effectively just limits the ability of the Rs to take control of policy. I don’t disagree with him in principal, but in practice, this is one of the few shots the Rs have to take control, and Rand is making news complaining he can’t go to an expensive party because…he wants to do this all again next year?

Just blindly opposing all spending, ignoring that spending has to happen in some shape or form is a losing proposition. What’s happened to the spending deficit and national debt since Rand has held office?

Legislation has and will be passed with or without him, which just takes him out of the equation to drive policy. He is basically just holding onto a fly swatter without regard to leaving the door wide open.

He is many things. "Liberal" in the 21st century socialist, war-mongering, anti-free speech sense is not one of them.
