... SHAME ON YOU!!! ... Rand Paul ... ... YOU ARE A SELLOUT!!! ... AND ... CLEARLY ANTI-AMERICAN ...

RandPaul Thank you!

Dispictable move.

Kentucky will not agree with you. This will be a big mistake for your career. YOU will lose next election. Kentucky is conservative and don't forget. Kentucky wants the WALL.

If many of those repubs where Americans they would vote to override the pres veto. Now, if they do not, do we really need a congress?

There goes Rand Paul thinking he's president again.

Ellysa_Maye Oh, Rand.

Thank you.

About time he did something right

I guess he want to be re-elected next time. If he keeps following the wizard. He won’t be. people are starting to see The Trumpster is a little crazy. And needs to be put in a home.

He always does the drama thing and then gets in line on the vote. He craves attention.

Do it, and you will never be trusted or respected!

Out of all the years this buffoon has been a senator, this is the only thing that has made any sense.

You’re kissing up to the democrats. Why don’t you just bend over. We need the Wall for the people’s protection. Do any of you even care for the American people anymore. We all want to know.

I’m from Kentucky 👎🏻

👎🏻

Good job RandPaul

Please join in SenAlexander MittRomney lisamurkowski tedcruz marcorubio SenRickScott senrobportman SenRonJohnson SenMcSallyAZ senatemajldr SenJohnKennedy JohnCornyn

Finally a man with some balls!!!

Well isn’t that special? This should be automatic for all of them

Come on! Paul! Protect! Our country!!

No, he'll vote for Trump.

i hope that reflects your voters Mr.Paul... Better talk to you Dad on this one !

Then he will get in line with Trump

👍🏻

Represent ur people Mr. Paul. It’s not about YOUR decision.

Waaaaaaaaaaahh.

Hey RandPaul every emergency order is different.. Block the next unnecessary one.. SpeakerPelosi the wall lady cannot be allowed to steer the country from a place of spite. We all know the 💰 would be there if TrumpDerangementSyndrome wasn't a real mentalillness

Better to let bubbles burst in China and America. Too much financial OVERLEVERAGING. Time to clean out nonsense.

After he travel to Canada to get healthcare, jet he doesn't want the ppl to get healthcare.

Rand do we as kentuckians have to pick another Senator to represent us.

It's illegal to use a legal name | ReadAndShareTheBCCRSS 'Kentucky's Rand Paul joins the Senate Republicans who say they'll vote against President Trump's national emergency to fund a border wall.'

KatMcKinley Congress doesn't want Trump to build it b/c it will happen fast, no time 4 them 2 buy the land cheap & resell to the gov't at astronomical prices.

I skip over any tweet about RandPaul because over time I've come to associate him with total BS

RandPaul I urge you to support our President on the national emergency declaration for wall funding.

RandPaul The people of America are watching. Do you really think siding with extremist democrats is in the best interest of your reelection chances in a very red state like Kentucky?

Let’s just wait and see the actions loys of words spoken lots of speeches but results Not so much

Saying and voting are two different worlds for him.

Gotta stay off AOC’s list!

Stupid!

This is garbage SenRandPauI is full of 💩 he does this every time because he is a drama queen and then folds like a cheap suit the day of the vote and kisses trumps butt. Don’t trust him.

We have heard this before from Senator Paul, then he flips back and supports Trump.

SenRandPauI please don't. Support our President. I am so sick and tired of getting nothing accomplished year after year after year. Secure the border & work a path to citizenship for all already here

Does it matter? Veto

And you believe him ? As usual RandPaul will have a last minute change of mind.....😂😂😂

KatMcKinley 51 votes short 16 votes to override the President’s veto

This my friends is why there are Executive Orders. Congress is inept.

Should be enough to pass, no? Granted, need a lot more to get to a veto proof majority. NationalEmergency TrumpFail

Rand, please don't

Decades of both party support on this until now?

So basically if he vetos the resolution, that’s it. There’s no way Congress will have the votes to override the veto in both houses. the house would need 45 MORE votes to get to 2/3 and the senate would need 67 votes to reach 2/3. Great. 😑

KatMcKinley Disgusting. We need the wall.

Believe it when I SEE it!

I think Rand is still suffering from the beat down he took from his liberal neighbor and is incapable of thinking clearly.

More should stand up to this President & do whats best for the country, not their political careers. They follow him blindly, lie after lie

Sure. They say that now, and at the last minute.....*crickets*

R Paul will be replaced one day...after his vote against Trump’s declaration...

Only makes sense.

Only because Trip is taking away congressional power. Whatever the reason, I'm glad for the support.

So many senators are full of bs. We need to vote in some real men and women

Surprise! Is RandPaul just seeking his usual publicity before he votes in favor of the fake national emergency created by realDonaldTrump? Isn’t this getting old RandPaul?

How long until the rest of the Republicans stand against a President that is selling the office of the President to the highest bidder.

Just for publicity

Yeah that's great just let anyone come into the country... you people that vote against it dont give a shit about this country..

It is hilarious that this organization jumps on politics when it attacks the president. Rand Paul is for less government. Please continue to support him.

Jerk

Nice to see that Sen. Paul still has a shred of dignity.

Say, Rand, does socialized medicine do better hernia operations? Let me know.

don't hold your breath, lot of time to change back and beside, Trump will veto and it will go to court anyway

Let’s wait & see what happens because I’m betting in the end most of the GOP will continue to side with Trump just to save their careers. None of them seem to have spines anymore. PartyOverCountry

RandPaul hasn't got enough attention lately. He's as short & needy of applause as an actor. Give him his pathetic fix.

Traitor. The voters will remember that decision well come election time.

The real national emergency we should be worried about is a shortage of hair gel

What about the emergency with Rand's lawn? Rand's hernia?
