## Trump Loses It at Rand Paul as GOP Budget Bill Seems Doomed in Senate

Authored by newrepublic.com

“Rand votes NO on everything, but never has any practical or constructive ideas,” he posted again five minutes later.

Paul has said he’ll support the bill only if it removes language raising the debt ceiling.

The House version of the bill would raise the debt ceiling by $4 trillion, while the Senate version would raise it by $5 trillion—which the Kentucky senator finds outrageous.

“If they were to separate out and take the debt ceiling off that, I very much could consider the rest of the bill,” Paul told reporters on Monday. »
