Why Rand Paul should ABSOLUTELY RUN IN 2028!

[jmdrake]

I'm sorry. I don't care what anybody else says. Rand Paul is the GOAT in politics! In 2016 he was prepared to take on statesmen in debates and not some loudmouth reality TV show host. I looked up this video of Rand taking on the women of The View because @Anti Federalist did a thread about Glock switches and I remember Rand schooling Whoopie Goldberg about semi automatic versus fully automatic guns. But there was another appearance where he schooled them about the need to get out of Syria! Now, years later, it's clear he was right. The Kurds didn't all get slaughtered. Israel wasn't made any less safe. And views on Israel have shifted anyway. I don't care what anybody else says. Rand Paul is the most charismatic, engaging, and straightforward Republican politician in America. Seriously nobody else comes close. I officially don't give AF about what happens in 2024. I'm hunkering down and hoping we last until 2028. Rand Paul you are our ONLY hope!

SPLIT TO: [SPLIT] Ron DeSantis & education, etc.

I like what Rand does in the Senate. I think he has found his place.

I like DeSantis in 28.

It's important to develope a farm team. Thomas Massie could win Rand's Senate seat (but he might take McConnell's seat before then). Someone solid needs to be in the works to take over Massie's seat. That should be happening regardless of whether Rand runs for president or not. I know pretty much nothing about the man who took over Ron Paul's seat when he retired.

Texas 14 Congressional is cataloged as R plus 17 even toug only 50 percent wite , Mexican decendants evidently dont vote dem in 14 ( 25 percent). Randy Weber is freedom index lifetime 77 percent on 6 terms. Dems typically pull 38 percent, so itll pretty muc mirror my state in 2024 Id guess

It's not easy to say who that is. If I remember right, one of the reasons he retired when he did was they gerrymandered his district so bad that he didn't live in it any more. What was his are parts of a few districts now.

What is he doing to position himself for a 2028 run? Nothing? If the next Trump Admin does well, JD vance is setup for 2028. Rand is being left in the dust.

Rand right now is running ads on YouTube highlighting the acomplishment of blocking funding for GOF reseaarch and asking people to sign the petition for Fauci to be prosecuted. So Rand is keeping his name in the news. Trump hasn't won yet and there's good reason to believe that the economy will finish crashing if/when he gets electing and this one might be really bad to the point where JD Vance wouldn't stand a chance in 2028. So there are two scenarios where the field is wide open for Rand to run and only one where it isn't.
