We love ya Rand!

Keep doing great work as a senator, and once Trump becomes president, you guys can work together to Make America Great Again!

Rand doesn't allign with Trump, and vise versa.

On the contrary, they seem to dislike eachother. Rand's gone on and on about the dangers of Trump's ideology on radio show's and interviews. And Trump attempted to give Rand a difficult time at the first two debates. Trump began the first debate denouncing Rand and saying he had no place on the stage.

That's because they're both vying for the same job. Ideologically they are not very far apart.

It's election season I get the down votes but this guy is right, they are much closer than most of the other candidates on some of the most serious issues.

They are the only one with reasonable tax plans, reasonable military plans, reasonable stances on foreign monetary aid, non-polarizing global politics.

Chiefpacman

Your saying they're similar because their views on these particular political stances are reasonable to you ? Vague.

Your doing a disservice to Rand and Trump by saying they allign in a broad sense. Yes they're both conservative, but when I say they're different it's obviously taking that into account.

Here's a link with some direct quotes from Rand calling Trump an abuser of the constitution.

Trump has said as much about Rand, like when he said he should get off the stage during the first debate.

Are they lying?

Obrez

When I say reasonable policy I don't mean that subjectively, i mean it strategically and on a basis of past proven policies and obvious truth. Muslims can't fuck our shit up if they aren't here to do it, the economy is proven to expand with lower taxes on businesses and under classes.

Chiefpacman

Ideologically they're quite far apart. Your not doing either of them favors by pretending otherwise. You can't mix these two together like that.

He's a Trump shill. If he sees anything positive on Voat that isn't related to trump he's going to try to tie trump into it now matter how ludicrous. They don't argue for Trump's points they just say that Trump supports whatever you want him to support when it's convenient. I would say about 2/3rd of all trump supporters here follow these exact patterns.

You would never see a Rand supporter pretending that Rand supports something he doesn't just to gain him support.

Good points

Not if you know how to read between the lines and not get distracted by relatively petty or politically expedient differences of opinion.

Chiefpacman

Not if you don't turn of the news you mean. The MSM may paint them both them both as gun-ho war mongerers, but they're incorrect.

As a Rand fan, please just stop. If you like Trump, you shouldn't be championing someons who actively calls Trump a moron and a troll anyways...

STARVE_THE_BEAST

Neither of them are war-mongers. I love them both, but Rand just doesn't have the minerals.
