Title: Dr. Ron Paul: Donald Trump ‘Is A Dangerous Person’

Wednesday on “The Alan Colmes Show,” Alan spoke with former Presidential candidate and Congressman Dr. Ron Paul about a new book he has written called Swords Into Plowshares, which will be released this week. In the book, Dr. Paul documents his experiences with war and his hope that future generations will not be dragged into perpetual conflicts.

Dr. Paul gave Alan his opinions on the Iran deal President Obama discussed at a press conference earlier today, and shared his frank take on Donald Trump, who he called a “dangerous person” and “the opposite of a Libertarian:”

COLMES: What’s your reaction to the deal?

DR. PAUL: I’ve been very supportive of what the President is trying to do. So I would be in support of the agreement. Even though from my viewpoint there’s a lot of shortcomings because I like to think there was a time in our history where we dealt with this in a different manner. That one country with another country worked out its affairs, the Executive branch worked it out into a treaty and then the Senate approved it. This is very international and it requires a lot and it’s not going to be, it’s not a treaty, therefore the Congress rightfully should have something to say about it. But it was done in a manner that I wasn’t very enthusiastic about.

*****

COLMES: Is Donald Trump good or bad for the Republican Party?

DR. PAUL: Well, I don’t even care whether he’s good or bad for the Republican Party, I don’t have much interest in that per se, but I think he’s is a dangerous person. And a lot of people find him sort of funny, and love him, even Libertarian types.

COLMES: Why is he dangerous?

DR. PAUL: They like him because he’s so disruptive to the party system, and I enjoy that too. But I think he’s a man that if conditions deteriorate, which they can, see I work on the assumption that the world is no more stable than Greece, and if those conditions come, people want to be told what to do. “And I know what the answer is, and I’ll do this, and I am the man to this.” And he comes across this very well, and people listen to him, and I believe he may be raising white horses someplace and he’s going to ride in. Because he is almost the opposite of a Libertarian, because it’s not like “I want to give you your freedom and your liberty to run your life as you choose. Your civil liberties are absolutely yours, you can’t hurt anybody, it’s your own money you can spend it any way you want.” But he sounds like the person, “I know the answers and I’m going to do this and I’ve done this, I’ve done this, this and this.”

COLMES: An authoritarian?

DR. PAUL: He’s an authoritarian and that’s the way he claims he made all his money. So I see that as dangerous.

Tho I feel Rand is closer in ideology to Ron than he's willing to admit, he keeps a good distance from his kook daddy. In fact, Rand has been keeping his distance towards most things lately. lol

But make no mistake about it, Rand is 110% smarter than Ron. If he wins the whitehouse, and wins a 2nd term, you'll see his daddy shine through.

Yeah - but he talks tough.

Seems that the Trump groupies are looking for a strongman/dictator type person to be their president.

Frankly - I don't understand why so-called conservatives are falling all over themselves singing his praises.

In this case not only did the apple fall far from the tree - it rolled out of the doggone orchard.

You really don't have a clue about Rand's policies, do you?

You see the name "Paul" and you immediately get a case of the vapors and ASSume "like father like son".

The funny thing is that the head canary Gatlin is the same way.

Rand has been good on exposing and opposing the surveillance state - other than that, he's a pandering warmonger.

Speaking with “This Week” host George Stephanopoulos, the libertarian firebrand said that because Snowden exposed programs that may be unconstitutional he does not deserve to be disciplined with a long prison sentence or the death penalty.

Rand Paul: Edward Snowden Committed An Act Of "Civil Disobedience"

"I think there do need to be rules, that being said, about people not revealing secrets. And I think the divulging of all kinds of secrets that endanger lives is wrong. But in this case, I think he was divulging a program that I think clearly, there are constitutional questions about and for which the director of Intelligence frankly lied to the U.S. Senate and said, we're not collecting any data on any Americans, when, in fact, they're doing a billion pieces of data every day."

You should have kept reading...

Just as I have continually said, you never know where Rand Paul stands from one minute to the next:
Rand Paul backs Snowden, bashes Clapper.

Why Is Rand Paul Being Duped by Edward Snowden?

It is difficult to fathom Senator Paul’s admiration for NSA leaker Edward Snowden. In an interview with Sean Hannity on June 17, Paul called Snowden “a civil disobedient” and compared him to Henry David Thoreau and Martin Luther King, Jr. Six days later, Paul told CNN’s Candy Crowley that Snowden “told the truth in the name of privacy.” It would seem that Paul believes that the motives of the former Booz, Allen & Hamilton employee are purer than the driven Snowden.
You screwed this up just like you acknowledged that Abdulazeez “was from Arizona.”
