Rand Paul Backs Trump, Unleashes "Top Ten Things That Make Obama Unqualified" For Office

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Submitted by Mac Slavo via SHTFPlan.com,

The White House, which is running a blatantly unconstitutional regime, is now attempting to vet potential successors to the Oval Office, and yet again take out opposition leaders.

First, Obama said that Assad lost all legitimacy, and should step down, and partnered with al Qaeda and ISIS to back up his opinions.

Now, Obama’s press secretary has claimed that Donald Trump has lost all legitimacy and has been “disqualified” from running for office. Just how does the White House plan to back up its opinions this time? Trump claims that he won’t be intimidated and exit the race, but one has to wonder how far the system will go to get its way.

“The fact is the first thing a President does when he or she takes the oath of office is to swear an oath to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States. And the fact is that what Donald Trump said yesterday disqualifies him from serving as President… And any Republican who’s too fearful of the Republican base to admit it has no business serving as president either,” Earnest said.

See video and details of White House press secretary Josh Earnest’s comments here.

Senator Rand Paul, who is also running for the GOP nomination, but who has received only a fraction of the coverage that Trump has, blasted back at the arrogance of the Obama White House, suggesting that President Obama should address his own “disqualifying” characteristics first:

Rand Paul did make a list of his top reasons, and tweeted them out in succession. Of course, there are many more examples that should be dealt with. Here are Rand’s reasons, listed on the Washington Examiner, or here on Twitter:

1. “Tried to take over 1/6 of the economy in Obamacare, wrecked the system and hurt patients and taxpayers.”

2. “Thinks an executive order is legislation and how you make law.”

 

3. “Fought an undeclared, unconstitutional war in Libya, turned it into Jihadist wonderland.”

— Dr. Rand Paul (@RandPaul) December 9, 2015

4. “Fighting an undeclared, unconstitutional war in Syria, [and] trying to put ISIS in Damascus.”

5. “Signed into law the indefinite detention of American citizens.” (Paul is referring to the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) signed by Obama in 2011, which earned heavy criticism from groups like the American Civil Liberties Union).

6. “His copy of the bill of rights obviously goes from 1 to 3, skipping the 2nd amendment.”

7. [A federal appeals] Court ruled his NSA spying on every American was illegal.”

8. “He has added more debt than anyone in history.”

9. “Appointed an attorney general who thinks speech against Muslims is a bigger threat than terrorism.”

10. “[Environmental Protection Agency] rules by executive FIAT trying to kill an entire American industry and way of life (coal).”

Not sure how Rand interprets the first amendment, but it’s pretty obvious that the administration that has punished more whistleblowers than any other, and allowed the NSA, intelligence community and private business to spy on and censor anyone it wishes, has no respect for the 1st Amendment or 4th Amendment either. Due process and whole back of the original ten amendments has definitely eroded to point where the ink is no longer legible.

Benghazi/Gaddafi, Fast and Furious and the use of drones all belong on this list as well, but it is only 10 and a good start. ISIS and the covert support of terrorism is its own giant issue that should be a nationwide scandal, with impeachments, prosecutions and a gutting of the entire staff of every major office in Washington, D.C. But it will never happen.

Obama’s role in the bankers bailout and the failure to prosecute Wall Street executives, or end legalized derivatives are all crimes that will also escape any notion of justice, even if the criminals strike again.

Though none of these men are perfect or trustworthy with ultimate power, President Obama and his team make Donald Trump and Rand Paul look like founding fathers.

Deja vu right? Back then a few brave souls, a few free thinkers, stood up but most everyone else was yelling "I'm proud to be an American, where at least I know I'm free!" Lee Greenwood style. As they watched their chosen bozo sell them out to the banksters. Left and right (which btw are the same, in case someone doesn't know).

Anyone even HINTING at disagreement with the establishment choices is jumped all over.

The mass marketed messaging is obvious to some. Unfortunately many are so indoctrinated by TV, internet, Movies, FaceButt etc, they can't see they don't really have a well thought out postion or even a poorly thought out position. They are regurgitating what was poured into their eyeballs and ears by some Madison Ave pitchman. The messaging is Team Branded for effect.

Here's the simple reality.

Running for President has nothing to do with "truth" it's all about being elected President.

Being elected requires 1 of 2 things, either 1) saying whatever is required to convince the largest single share of the voters who actually cast votes to vote for you, or 2) successfully manipulating the ballot box.  

Nothing else matters. 

Whether "whatever" is consistent with a candiate's actual positions is a matter for another time, in the case of the candidate, and due diligence on the part of voters.

What this post shows me is that Rand has figured out what Trump really does have going for him.

THE PUBLIC IS MAD AS HELL AT ALL THE BULLSHIT AND TRUMP IS TELLING THE SYSTEM TO FUCK OFF. HE IS EXPRESSING THEIR ANGER. It is not just entertainment. They want "stomp-you're-ass-a-mud-hole-and-walk-it-dry" rage.

If Rand is even believable (enough testerone) in the "angry at the system role," he could get some traction. Carson knows it, but he is too "softspoken."

So who is proposing to "throw all muslims out of the country"?  Sounds like a good plan but so far all Trump has done is proposed preventing non-American muslims from entering the US, for which there is already a law on the books, passed in the way required by the Constitution, specifically:

8 U.S. Code § 1182 – Inadmissible aliens
(f) Suspension of entry or imposition of restrictions by President
Whenever the President finds that the entry of any aliens or of any class of aliens into the United States would be detrimental to the interests of the United States, he may by proclamation, and for such period as he shall deem necessary, suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens as immigrants or nonimmigrants, or impose on the entry of aliens any restrictions he may deem to be appropriate

That gives the president the authority to unilaterally exclude any alien, note that ANY.

And which wars did Bush and Reagan start unconstitutionally, i.e. without authorisation by Congress?  GWB even had Hillary lined up agreeing with his invasion of Iraq.

A presidential action is not unconstitutional just because some nutter calling itself diogenes disagrees with it.

'Flow of terrorists into the country''?

9/11 was indeed a terrorist event, 3K people killed by Israeli-Neocons in a false flag operation, followed by ?? of our soldiers in criminal wars of aggression for Israeli and MIC interests and 100s of 1000s killed among innocents in countries we have attacked.

What flow of terrorsts produces more than handfuls here in the US?  We can discuss stopping them when we have taken care of the terrorst running our own government.

Our own police kill more than 50X the rate of the actual Muslim terrorsts, so I don't worry about Muslims.

If Israeli-Neocons allow peace, they hang.

yeah, and we could always amend the Constitution to allow for torture, rape, whatever.  Or just do what Bush did and consider a mere "piece of paper". 

the point Diogenes is making is not about the legality of excluding anyone which is permitted under the law you cite, but the precedent of excluding based on religion.  If that is your point, then I suggest we exclude all immigrants whose religion teaches any sort of violence or behavior we would consider abhorrent.  Whoops!  Read the Bible lately?

Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Libya, Yemen, etc. are what?  Wars or not wars?  There was no Congressional declaration of war, therefore they are not wars.  QED.  Our intervention in korea was also not a war; it was a police action.  So apparently there is nothing unconstitutional about invading another country, blowing up their water supplies and hospitals, and getting thousands of US soldiers killed and wounded as long as it not a "war".  Except for the blowing up water treatment which is technically unconstitutional since it contravenes international treaties signed by the US (targetting civilian water treatment is a war crime).  Unless of course, we were not at war with Iraq in which case it was just...well, um...a mistake?

The present socialist president also doubled the debt, dismantled the space program, allowed the largest influx of people on food stamps, significantly increased the cost of healthcare with Obamacare and his attorney general, Eric Holder said criminal banksters were too big to prosecute. We can add plenty more to this list.

“In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person’s becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American…There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn’t an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag… We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language… and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people.”

~Theodore Roosevelt 1907~

 

Obama is not an American in good faith, I do not care where he was born.

Teddy was a traitorous royal. Just like his fellow kin Franky. Imposed on our fathers and fooled the masses into thinking they rose like cream to the top.

Roosevelt is a name like Bush or Clinton.

Teddy might have been a lot of things. But when he spoke those words he was expressing what should be the basic rules for any immigrant.

I immigrated to the US 50 years ago and I am a proud American who is aghast at the way this once great country is being betrayed by the very people who were elected to defend the Constitution from all eneimies foreign and domestic.

It should be obvious that the greatest threat to America right now is its own federal government.

Agreed. I don't dispute what he said necesarily. He and his cousin FDR both had lines I would whole heartedly endorse.

I merely remind the casual ZH'er his words, like his modern day counterparts, didn't comport with his actions. He and his ilk are good at getting us to us agree with one or two lines in a speech then stealing our wallets and and rights with the legislation they sign. Legislation that is the opposite of what they proclaim in speeches.

Back in the day, I was a Teddy fan. Once bought a Teddy book at a gun show. I grew up thinking he was a hero. Still have it somewhere. The rough riders yeah! A hunter! Yeah! National Parks yeah! Then I actually read his book. The veil was shattered. He was a royal, believing himself above the plebes like me.

Someone should point out that the first job of a President is to protect the people of the USA and that is exactly what Trump offered as a solution.  A protective pause till this group in DC figures out what they are doing disquaifies him from office says the traitor in chief?  I supose if the plan is not to protect the country then how dare Trump give them an ultimatum they dont plan to follow.

1. Obamacare was not written by Obama.  It was written by Big Pharma, Big medicine and Insurance.  It works exactly how it is supposed to work.

2-7. Yes, Obama is simply Dick Cheney with a tan.  But I suspect that Obama is as much in charge of all this as Bush was, which is to say hardly at all.  The psychopaths at CIA, the NSA, the DHS, the Pentagon, K Street and Wall Street are in charge.

8.  Yep, lots of debt.  It could be reduced by ending all our wars, dismantling the DHS, gutting the CIA and NSA, and cutting the Pentagon budget by 75%.  Of course, no one really wants that.  Oh, and can we ask the banks for three trillion back that they were given/stole.

9. The attorney general is right.  Muslim terrorists have killed very few Americans.  And I refer to your Bill of Rights comments.  You do NOT get to pick and choose if you don't let anyone else pick and choose.

10.  Coal?  Really?  You wanna protect coal and call it part of the American Way?  Seriously?  Well, then, fuck you.

 

Obama is a criminal.  Obama is a terrible president.  Obama is just another stooge following in the footsteps of earlier stooges like Bush, Clinton, Bush, and Reagan. but Rand Paul?  And this list?  Gimme a break.

Call me when you are ready to wipe the entire slate clean and come up with sane, intelligent people who we can elect.  Rand Paul and Donald Trump may be one or the other, but neither are both.

The citizenship issue is a CIA clusterfuck. Barry was born in Hawaii. His real father was almost certainly foundation funded/created dirt-bag Communist agitator Frank Marshall Davis. Barry was however later legally  adapted by Lolo Soetoro, so he is really an Indonesian citizen and at that time Indonesia was under the auspices of British rule so he is in a real way a British subject under the Crown. He had a tranny nanny and his slut mommy was CIA along with the rest of the maternal side of his family going back to the Office of Strategic Services. (OSS) Mommy worked for Geithner's dad at the Ford Foundation. This CIA cut out's only claim to fame seems that he was specifically bred and groomed by the CIA for the portion of the take-down in which he is now engaged. Dr. Jerome Corsi and Joel Gilbert pretty much came to that conclusion after many years of research.

I would think his mom is still alive and they faked her death just like Bill Clinton's mafia party girl (Whore) mom 'died' when Bubba was elected to cover tracks.
