Fox News Rundown Extra: Why Sen. Rand Paul Takes On Democrats And Republicans

At a time when Mr. Trump is facing a rapidly widening impeachment inquiry, and bipartisan criticism over his Syria policy, Senator Rand Paul has remained one of President’s biggest defenders.

Earlier this week, Senator Rand Paul sat down with Fox News Rundown host Dave Anthony to discuss the president’s most recent controversies and why he is standing by him through it all.

The Kentucky Republican said he has no concerns over the President’s infamous call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and thinks the controversy raises more questions about the Biden family. When it comes to Syria, Paul actually applauds the Administration’s controversial decision to withdraw troops from and went after his fellow Republicans who have objected to Trump’s Syria policy.

The Senator said both the Ukraine scandal and the ongoing conflict in northern Syria highlight why he objects to many of the foreign policy decisions made by both parties.

Sen. Paul also discussed his new book, The Case Against Socialism, in it he outlines the history of socialism and tries to explain its apparent growing popularity in America. He used the book to go after many of the Democrat’s 2020 presidential candidates and their ideas that he says are reminiscent of policies that have devastated socialist nations like Venezuela.

On Fox News Rundown Extra, you’ll hear our full interview with Senator Rand Paul. The interview also includes more of the Senator’s takes on the Democrat’s impeachment effort and the harsh words he had for his own colleague Senator Lindsay Graham, who has been a thorn in President Trump’s side lately.
