More on Rand Paul
Over the course of this month, Paul has spoken about his support of President Trump’s decision to withdraw troops from Northern Syria. This is a decision which many left-wingers have censured.
On Twitter, Paul called out Democrats for “[supporting] the Bush foreign policy.” The senator moreover noted that the left has previously adopted different positions on U.S. involvement in Syria, prior to Trump’s latest decision on this matter.
