To my dismay, there will be no more "dumbass live streams" of Rand's campaign for at least the next four years.
Rand son of Ron has officially dropped out of the race for the Republican presidential nomination.
"It's been an incredible honor to run a principled campaign for the White House. Today, I will end where I began, ready and willing to fight for the cause of Liberty," Paul said in a statement. "Although, today I will suspend my campaign for President, the fight is far from over. I will continue to carry the torch for Liberty in the United States Senate and I look forward to earning the privilege to represent the people of Kentucky for another term."
Rand is still ready and willing to "fight for the cause of liberty" unless, of course, you're a minority, gay, or pregnant.
Rand son of Ron tarnished his image and his campaign before it was even officially launched by wedding himself to the anti-choice movement. Rand also toured colleges where he told students that we don't need laws against discrimination in the workplace because they should leave their sexuality at home.
Liberty!
Before officially launching his campaign, Rand also went to enormous lengths to paint himself as a warhawk who would take the fight to Syria and ISIS in ways President Obama and Hillary Clinton never will. Unfortunately for him, nobody believed it. Moreover, he muddied his own message with a long series of contradictory speeches and policy positions.
As insincere as I believe him to be, Rand son of Ron was and still is the only Republican presidential candidate to even broach the subject of criminal justice reform, but he also abandoned that platform after discovering Republican primary voters do not care about Black Lives.
The Rand Paul Libertarian electorate simply doesn't exist and it never will but I certainly expect he will run for president again.
