    I went and read the tweets. That's awesome. I hope he follows through.

    He also retweeted a Styxhexenhammer666 video.

    It's positive flicker but at this stage mostly symbolic gesture few days before elections amid "sinking polls".

    If so called "sinking polls" few days before elections are motivating this, wish his polls numbers had sunk this low last year when he was sending 14,000 more troops to mideast to appease his globalist neocon donors or before that when he did his now failed 'surge' to Afghanistan in 2017.

    While at it, maybe retweet some of Rand's other tweets too:

    These retweets better mean we are pulling out of the Middle East. As usual I will take it with a grain of salt.

    Foreign policy wise when was the last time we have a president that was better than Trump?

    Thumbs up

    Trump agrees with Rand Paul & Ron Paul on foreign policy.

    This is for the Americans with very short term memories.

    Elections are in a few weeks.

    Once elections are over, tptb will proceed as planned. MIC and the MIC are one and the same. If you do not believe me, you may respond to this after the “election”.

    The only way to truly win is to return to individualism, and not support the 2-party duopoly. As Ron has started for decades, changing the hearts and minds of the people is essential - not counting on tweets and podium rhetoric. TPTB/lobbyists are the ones in charge.

    BTW, has Trump/Biden talked about the Federal Reserve, and/or abolishing the TSA? Or stop funding the M(edical)IC? Or are those topics not important?

    Been a while. 10 years ago it would have been political suicide to say some of the stuff Trump is saying if you were running as a republican. I just hope it sticks once he is gone. We get a warhawk president in 2024 and I'm sure that any mention of true conservative foreign policy will get drowned out by the neocons again.

    TDS sufferers will always be a sad bunch.

    The very fact a sitting president did it isn't good enough for you ? You are a depressive half empty guy.

    I am glad Rand Paul positively influenced Trump on Foreign Policy.

    I understand what you are saying, but this return wont come but in decades.

    Trump retweeted this today as well.

    Asking to be held accountable is the silver lining. Beyond anything Biden will offer.

    Trump wasn't asked about foreign policy in his "Town Hall" last night. Just if he denounces white supremacists and Q-anon.
    Changed over to Biden's Tohn Hall immediate after. He was talking about fracking. Next question asked.....
    Foreign policy.

    I wasn't alive yet but off the top of my head while not directly involving the US in a war I know he gave away the Panama Canal and started arming the Mujahideen in Afghanistan. Too much of a naive do-gooder and internationalist. Zbigniew Brzezinski was his guy too.

    That doesn't make him better than Trump, he did many bad things with foreign policy.

    This seems like a good thing. Let's hope that Trump starts taking Rand's suggestions and advice seriously and soon. If even 50% of what Rand is demanding is achieved, it will be more than any of us probably could have hoped for or imagined a president that wasn't Ron or Rand Paul would do. The vindication that Ron Paul and the people always deserved.

    The only thing "sinking" is your credibility with that pro war neocon propoganda, trying to throw off any progress made in pulling out of the Middle East.

    Don't get it twisted, @enhanced_deficit is happy to regurgitate anything the neocon deep state puts in his doggy bowl.

    Real libertarians actually support Rand Paul.

    Time to ban the troll @JoshLowry, 7 years of propaganda is 7 years too long.

    All of these people want libertarianism to be so pure and so small that it never progresses in any way whatsoever, thats what makes them so horrible to be around.

    Ask Ron Paul if he would take the progress that Rand is achieving or absolutely nothing at all if it isn't perfect, and you will see how pathetic these purist liBROtarians are. They don't want to expand the tent, they want to be "special", the way undecided voters are in presidential election years, except nobody pays any attention to liBROtarians.

    I said the progress that Rand is achieving and did not mention Trump even once in the post but you can keep spinning until you pass out.

    You can read Rand's tweets for progress towards liberty, you won't do it though, "The SQUAD of RPF" doesn't like Rand.

    Did what? Verbal statements alone are not that impressive to me anymore, more interested in track record and actual policies. I'll be very glad if my skepticism is proven wrong.
    He did the now failed surge and lately a lot of PRs have been issued about undoing that surge. But as of recent tracking, there were more troops in mideast today than there were when he took office. Spending records for MIC and regular big gummit have been broken.

    Now that your question has been addressed, hope you can answer this question.

    Where do you stand on 'follow the money' doctrine and 'follow the track record on pre-election statements'?

    Do you know who is the top funder of MAGA movement leader?
