Rand Paul said at yesterday's committee hearing yesterday, for example,"I think we ought to have a little bit of humility in our belief that we know what's best for the economy. And as much as I respect you, Dr. Fauci, I don't think you're the end-all, I don't think you're the one person that gets to make a decision.
Fauci responded,"I have never made myself out to be the end-all and only voice in this. I'm a scientist, a physician, and a public health official. I give advice according to the best scientific evidence." Nevertheless, Paul had quite a bit to say yesterday, arguing that he doesn't expect a surge in coronavirus cases, the crisis has been"relatively benign" outside of"New England," and school closings have been"kind of ridiculous."
I'm going to assume the Senate Republican is confused about which states are actually in New England. It also seems likely that he hasn't seen,"The history of this, when we look back, will be of wrong prediction after wrong prediction after wrong prediction." Speaking of wrong predictions, watching the Kentucky lawmaker yesterday, it was hard not to reflect on a similar display from Rand Paul during a public-health emergency in 2014 -- except at that time, instead of trying to downplay a viral threat, the GOP senator was doing the exact opposite.
MaddowBlog For a long time , I thought Rand Paul was a sensible guy. However when he sided with Moscow Mitch on his vote on Impeachment in Senate, he showed his true color. I pray that GOP is decimated on Nov 3 election. That would be best for our Country.
MaddowBlog Another media diversionary political hit job
MaddowBlog You actually need to 'Have a Bit of Humility' to be able 'To Show A Bit Of Humility'.
MaddowBlog The homeless senator. His wife must have kicked him out.
MaddowBlog bloggers are not journalists. msnbc is not media.
MaddowBlog No of course not. He's a real doctor and you're some confused hack.
MaddowBlog I don't know about this guy. Why does he always looks like he's just come off a three day bender, been sleeping in his car, and stepped into fresh clothes?
MaddowBlog I fear RandPaul’s minimizing of Covid-19 effects on children may not age well.
MaddowBlog Always nasty. Does he even smile?
MaddowBlog
MaddowBlog Every day I can clearly see why his neighbor kicked his ass on the front lawn!
MaddowBlog He is a mutt.
MaddowBlog Boy, that is for sure true. Between him and McConnell, Kentucky has done more to hurt our country than any other state.
MaddowBlog You people are insane
MaddowBlog What a dweeb! He looks like a person living on the street in a stolen suit. Actually, that pretty much is exactly what he always looks like! Buy the dude a tent.
MaddowBlog He has never stood out positively. He's part of the swamp that needs cleaning out - and not just replaced by other, more wealthy people in the swamp. VoteBlue2020 up and down the ballot.

MaddowBlog Arrogant little jerk. He think is immune because he had it already!! Meanwhile anyone who comes in contact with him should files charges of Assault against him!

MaddowBlog Rand “The Hobbit” Paul. He may have exposed others too. Like his puppeteer Trump.
MaddowBlog Interesting journalistic reference to RandPaul as a failed presidential candidate.. I wonder if how many other MSNBC ‘editorials’ anywhere refer to HillaryClinton like that 🤔. Never mind it’s a white rhino… Disregard. stevebenen
MaddowBlog RandPaul says, 'I don't think you're the end all.” But Fauci is the only truth we can recall Trump repeatedly lied about the event HIGH NUMBERS is all he tried to prevent DrAnthonyF “I never made myself out to be the end all…” U R right Fauci, TRUTH MATTERS, get it RandPaul

MaddowBlog A phony politician from Kentucky where some are still fighting the civil war
MaddowBlog Sen. Paul & Cruz are wearing beards to hid who they really are. They think a new look & people will think they are someone else. We see them. We aren't fooled. They are the same jerks they have always been.
MaddowBlog Fauci put him in his place the other day. Did he actually test positive or did he just take a 14 day break. OK quarantine.
MaddowBlog In USA Deaths from Coronavirus: February 25: 0 deaths, March 23: 938 deaths, April 25: 53,755, deaths, May 16: 87,500 deaths. At this rate, we will have over 100,000 deaths in USA from Coronavirus by end of May. Staggering numbers.

MaddowBlog Paul had valid questions, concerns, and he has medical knowledge being an MD.
MaddowBlog How do these schitt for brains get elected.
MaddowBlog Well Rachel, if we are going by people's track records than you should probably never speak in public again. Except for maybe on those late night conspiracy theory shows. Oh wait... that's what you do now isn't it?
