Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) said Thursday it was "ludicrous" for Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) to call taking troops out of Syria and Afghanistan “precipitous.”

“To call it a precipitous withdrawal after 17 years is ludicrous,” Paul said on Fox News. “We’ve been there 17 years.”

The libertarian-leaning lawmaker said the U.S. had secured a victory in Afghanistan because it “got bin Laden” and “disrupted the people who attacked us.”

He argued that the money spent on the war could be better spent domestically, including on a border wall.

Rand says in the video that he spoke with Trump last night and that he believes he is steadfast on removing troops :up:

Bravo

LOL, Bill Hemmer looked like his head was going to explode when Rand said, "People of the Islamic Faith". :collision:

Will he endorse Mitch again next time?
