Jack Smith Agrees to Republican Demand to Testify—With a Major Catch
“If I’m given the choice between President Trump versus Harris or versus Biden, without a doubt, I would choose President Trump over and over again,” Paul told Burns. “But that doesn’t mean I’m going to sit back and say, ‘Oh, I’m throwing all my beliefs aside. I will no longer be for free trade. I will no longer be for balanced budgets. I will no longer be opposed to killing people without trial, without naming them, without evidence.” No, I must remain who I am.
Paul also expressed discomfort with Trump’s willingness to attack any Republican who might disagree with him, such as Rep. Thomas Massie, whom the president wants to see primary, or even Paul himself.
“It’s a warning sign: ‘Go against me or my policies and I will come after you.’ And I don’t think that’s good for the Republican Party, or the country,” Paul continued. “I think what made America great is capitalism… it’s a mistake to say that the nation is being hollowed out by trade,” referring to Trump’s trade wars.
