Rand Paul To Trump: I Want To See Your ‘Original Long-Form Certificate Of Republican Registration’

» 26 comments

Republican Senator Rand Paul spoke in New Hampshire this morning to a group of Republicans and had some tough words for Donald Trump, the current leader amongst potential GOP primary voters. Urging that the party should “look to Republicans who not only talk the talk, but walk the walk,” Paul warned that once Republicans learn more about Trump, they are not going to like what they find out.

Paul joked to his audience:

“I’ve come to New Hampshire today because I’m very concerned. I want to see the original long-form certificate of Donald Trump’s Republican registration. Seriously, don’t you think we need to see that?”

Paul got more serious later, suggesting “it’s going to be hard for [Trump] to explain giving $4,800 to Harry Reid in the last cycle and giving $24,000 to Charlie Rangel.” And Paul doubted Trump should be complaining about Obama’s education, since Paul wondered “what economic school teaches you that you can have a bully for a president who sets the prices by just telling countries what price they should charge?”

With other prominent conservatives also not getting along with Trump, might the bombastic billionaire prove to be an even bigger headache for the Republican party then he already has been for Obama?

    Can we get a Paul/Paul 2012 ticket please?

  • Upper Plateau

    Republicans probably should run away from Trump. What they need to do is learn from him on how to deal with media personalities. He has a way of controlling the narritive. He is the first person in a long time that leaves interviewers cross-eyed. They start with the Democratic talking points and he jams it back in their face. Most of the Republican Candidate look like a dear caught in the headlights. They try to reason with liberal interviewers and get ZERO respect. Sad to say, but his style has panache.

    If coming across like a racist pig bully equals panache …. then I agree.

    Trump is not even a Republican in name only. He was a Dem before this crap. He is a Trump… leave it as that.

    Find a quote where I “loved him”. Put up or shut up…

    I’d rather see Rand Paul demanding that Hussein produce the long form of the results of the Liberal $1.5 Trillion economic “stimulus.” It’s “worked” like all other Liberal policies throughout history.

    You’re going to need that quote that espouses birtherism. Otherwise, you’re obviously lying. Again.

    It works for your free cheese eating ass, doesn’t it? Oh how sweet it is to hate the hand that feeds you. You should be in a zoo somewhere, so that kids would have an excellent display of what a scumbag looks like.

    I never loved the idiot. The man was for Universal Health Care, Nancy Pelosi before he was against them. He is no Conservative. He’s a showman. And I have NEVER been in favor of the birther issue. It’s utterly moronic. You can’t find a post where I am ever supporting with Donald Trump or supporting the birther issue.

  • TerryDo

    Is Rand Paul protecting his daddy’s territory? Would Rand Paul vote for Ron Paul or will he vote for the Republican running against his dad?

    Is there such a thing as a pure Republican or is there a Bell curve for that scale also?

    Do the Conservatives have more in common with The Tea Party than with their counterpart Republicans?

    Are you serious? Trump being called ‘crazy’ by Rand Paul is like Mel Gibson being called ‘crazy’ by Charlie Sheen.

    tatboy, what did you do with all of your hatred before Obama became president?

    Trump was never a serious candidate. He did, however, serve a useful purpose–he forced -0bama to render his LFBC. Now, if we can get the selective service registration, college transcripts, and medical records, we’ll have a clearer picture of the obfuscator in chief.

    And where were you when we were looking for similar in formation about Baby Bush? How come it works for you all to demand information that’s none of your business when it’s Mr. Obama, but you all could care less when it’s a Bush? Mr. Obama’s medical records are none of your d*** bizness. His selective service info..likewize….college transcripts, ditto……

    Time to put a sock in it until the next election, when you can tell me not to bother about the personal records of whatever repug you think will save the country from the evils of democracy. Not one Repug I’d take in trade for the gentleman, thinker, caring, responsible, Mr. Obama, who is trapped in a web made by the repugs who came before him and continue to make life in this country continually more impoverished for ordinary working people.
    Wealth rules, just as in russia and france before their revolutions.

    1995-2007 rupugs controlled both chambers–except for the june 2001-2002 period when senate had dem majority; Otherwise 2001-2007 repugs controlled both chambers. Can’t blame the current mess on Mr. Obama. It’s not his fault democrats are so easily pushed around…I do declare that it’s about time some dems were taken to the woodshed for a little chastising…… but that’s another issue….

    You have apparently missed reading my posts where I addressed this issue so I’ll provide it again:

    I believe ALL candidates should provide ALL documentation relative to their being qualified and fit to serve in the posts for which they are campaigning. Our Constitution requires that all candidates for the presidency be natural born citizens of the US. Other documentation should include ALL transcripts (to back up the claims they may have made relative to their qualifications for the job, just as we are required to provide when we apply for a job), selective service registrations (proof that they have obeyed our laws and have registered for selective service), medical records (to prove they aren’t schitzophrenic or drug addicts, or something of that nature), and tax records (as proof that they are up to snuff on their taxes.) You and I must provide such documentation when we apply for a job and so should political candidates. It’s nothing particularly directed at -0bama, it’s just good policy. As you can see, had -0bama provided this information early on, we wouldn’t be wasting our time arguing about it now. It was, after all, -0bama who promised the “most transparent administration in history.”

  • X-3

    BTW, George Bush provided those documents at the start of his campaign. Dan Blather lost his job–and the rest of his credibility–when he used forged documents and lies in his attempt to smear the former president.
