Overview
- Trump used a weekend Truth Social post to deride Sen. Rand Paul and Rep. Thomas Massie, calling Paul a 'nasty liddle guy' and claiming he 'got him elected' twice.
- Ron Paul responded Monday on social media and on his Liberty Report, labeling the post a 'hysterical rant' and questioning the health of the party.
- Liberty Report co-host Daniel McAdams called Trump's boast about electing Rand Paul an 'absolute bold-faced lie' and described the post as 'disgusting.'
- Asked about the attack on NBC's Meet the Press, Rand Paul said he focuses on debt and balanced budgets, said he does not take the post too seriously, and later praised Trump as one of the best presidents of his lifetime.
- Mediaite reported that Trump announced his first in-person fundraiser of the election cycle will be for Sen. Lindsey Graham.
