Rand Paul: Trump could see 'all hell break loose' with further involvement in Ukraine, Venezuela [View all]

Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) warned on Friday that President Trump’s growing involvements in Ukraine’s war with Russia and in the Caribbean Sea against Venezuela could further unravel and greatly upset the MAGA base.

Paul, in an interview with Dasha Burns on Politico’s “The Conversation” podcast, said the $20 billion “economic stabilization” agreement with Argentina could be “the dealbreaker … because it’s an enormous amount of money.”

“But if there is more money going to Ukraine, and it looks like he is coming down on the side of getting us involved with Ukraine on their side of the war [with Russia] or on any side of this war, I think you’re going to see all hell break loose,” the senator added.

He then suggested that American intervention overseas will be a bigger deal than the Trump administration’s handling of the case involving the convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Perhaps that's what he's hoping for, an Epstein distraction.
