He's such a sweetheart of a guy, hope he's not suffering too much.

(38,187 posts)He can kick for hours like a roach that got directly sprayed with industrial strength insecticide, then go right back to normal by morning. You can't kill Republicans. They don't even seem to want to die when they reach really really old age. Rand Paul will be fine.
The one I'm rooting for is Thom Tillis, the NC Republican who was complaining about signs for restaurant employees to wash their hands after taking a crap. If anyone needs, and I mean NEEDS to learn how disgusting he is, it is him. That is the one I really want to see kick like a roach for a few hours while people remind him why hand washing is a good thing, not a bad thing.

If I knew how to copy and past an image, I would!
Tillis is nasty (to quote a certain White House squatter).

Is it this one?

Thanks.

(8,168 posts)No matter how hypocritical some people are, I will not wish for the suffering of anybody during these trying times.
Some of the comments I read here are just sickening, this is certainly not the DU I remember from when I first joined in 2001.
I hate Rand Paul's politics, but I certainly won't be gleeful at his sickness, this is a horrible virus that can affect anyone, be it D, R, I, or whatever.
Yesterday I saw a couple of people gloating about Boris Johnson being in intensive care. It was disgusting.

(7,722 posts)Not wishing. However, he along with crooked Donny I truly believe that they take pleasure in the suffering of us. Boris Johnson, while I disagree with his politics is a likeable bloke who, I think, does have empathy, and as hardheaded as he is is capable of learning. I would not be surprised if Rand Paul coughed all over Democrats belongings in the coat closet. He's a jag off of the highest order.

And, only then, their feet. Beyond disgusting. Only morons are going to buy into your costume, because that's all this is. Fuck you, you fucking fucker.

(15,390 posts)Rand was never a podiatrist, he was an ophthalmologist (eye doctor).
GoCubsGo
(32,080 posts)Still not a doctor working on the front lines of the epidemic, as he's trying appear to be.
Polybius
(15,390 posts)But can he re-catch it by helping new Covid-19 patients?
dware
(12,369 posts)Hopefully not.

(12,712 posts)He will get through this all by himself as a free agent, unfettered. A GOP libertarian to the max, possessing ultrabootstraps blessed by Ayn Rand herself. Her vacuous, black lack of a spirit will be by his side, inflating his hermetically sealed ego and maximizing his immunity to anything human.
You could put him on an island all by himself and he would recover in no time. The hospital thing is just for show.

(86,577 posts)It may have just been a ploy to get Romney to sit out the vote that was being manipulated. I think he's so self centered that he did it just to be a dick and help out Moscowmitch.
