Some are undoubtedly disheartened by political infighting but this infighting is good. These are debates the country desperately needs to have. Earlier today Rand paul stated Were very lucky John McCain is not in charge . Sen. Rand Paul (Ky.) ripped fellow Republican Sen. John McCain (Ariz.) on Sunday after McCain criticized President Trumps escalating war of words with the media. He argued that the nation is very lucky that Trump is president and not McCain who won the 2008 GOP nomination but lost to Barack Obama in the general election. Paul said that McCains recent criticisms of Trump are driven by his personal dispute with the president over foreign policy. He added that McCain and Trump are at odds because McCain supports the wide deployment of U.S. troops to protect and promote American interests abroad while he characterized Trumps views as closer to a realpolitik approach to foreign policy. Everything that he says about the president is colored by his own personal dispute hes got running with President Trump and it should be taken with a grain of salt because John McCains the guy whos advocated for war everywhere Paul said on ABCs This Week. He would bankrupt the nation. Were very lucky John McCains not in charge because I think wed be in perpetual war Paul added.
