While the whole world loses their minds and criticizes President Trump’s performance at the press conference with Putin, one GOP Senator has actually come to his defense. Applauding the change of approach from President Trump.
According to Town Hall:
Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY), in fact, liked much of what Trump had to say.
“It’s gotten so ridiculous that someone has to stand up and say we should try to engage even our adversaries and open up our lines of communication,” Paul, who’s set to travel to Russia next month to continue talks, told Politico. “We’re going to talk to the president about some small steps in order to try to thaw the relations between our countries.”
He brushed aside criticism Trump received from within the GOP as nothing more than “Trump derangement syndrome.”
“Republicans that are making the criticism are either the pro-war Republicans like (Sen. John) McCain and (Sen. Lindsey) Graham or the anti-Trump ones like (Sen. Ben) Sasse,” he said. “They are motivated by their persistent and consistent dislike of the president.”
Senator Paul may have a point. A new approach could likely bring about results past administrations were not able to achieve.
