Former Texas congressman and presidential hopeful Ron Paul criticized President Trump on Monday after Trump referred to his son, Senator Rand Paul (R-Ky.), as a “mean son of a bitch.”
Ron Paul noted, “Trump went on a wild rant over the weekend, calling Congressman Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) and Senator Rand Paul (R-Ky.) a ‘weird’ pair who won’t vote with Republicans.” He shared this on a post on X.
He pointed out, “In the meantime, Trump just revealed that his first in-person fundraiser of the campaign is set to support…Lindsey Graham! Plus, today, Israel broke the ceasefire and caused more casualties in Gaza,” he added.
Trump has routinely labeled Rand Paul and Thomas Massie as RINOs (Republicans in Name Only) for diverging from party lines on significant congressional votes.
Interestingly, both senators from Kentucky opposed the summer spending package known as the “big, beautiful bill.”
In a post on Truth Social, Trump expressed, “What happened to ‘Senator’ Rand Paul? He was never that great, but he’s gotten much worse! I beat him twice in Kentucky, and he has never voted Republican.”
He continued, “He’s a nasty old man, much like Thomas Massie, who I defeated three times in a landslide! He’s a sick wacko who won’t support our wonderful Republican Party, MAGA, or America First. Really odd!!!”
During an appearance on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” Rand Paul was asked about Trump’s comments.
He stated, “The issue is that in Washington, some constituents label my views as an anomaly. The president sees my support for debt reduction and balanced budgets as unusual,” the Kentucky senator explained to Kristen Welker.
“However, when I return to Kentucky or travel across the U.S., people approach me and say, ‘Keep fighting for your principles. Regardless of party, you’re one of the few who champions debt and balanced budgets.’ I don’t take it too seriously, though,” he added.
Later in the conversation, he referred to Trump as “one of the best presidents, if not the best, in my lifetime.”
