Rand Paul ain’t messing around. On an interview with Jake Tapper on “State of the Union” today he threw a lot of jabs at his competitors while using some of the fodder from the GOP debate.
Here’s Rand on the Donald:

The Donald doesn’t seem to be about limited government at all, but his supporters don’t seem to mind.
.@RandPaul: @realDonaldTrump "had no clue what the nuclear triad is" https://t.co/q9mbybWMFz #CNNSOTU https://t.co/TTT7l0KH7I

And he called for Marco Rubio to resign or give back his wages to the taxpayer over his missed votes!!
.@RandPaul: "The difference between @marcorubio and I is I show up for work" https://t.co/6OZtrg079U #CNNSOTU https://t.co/7ko2zZuxkq

Then he went after Ted Cruz, accusing him of being a flip flopper:
.@RandPaul on @tedcruz: "I think he should just admit that he changed his mind" https://t.co/6OZtrg079U #CNNSOTU https://t.co/x5FLG1cg5k

And here he is even ripping on the polls!!
.@RandPaul: "I think we have sort of American Idol type of polls" https://t.co/6OZtrg079U #CNNSOTU https://t.co/ThqbnPdI8C

Daaang Rand Paul unleashed is crazy!! Of course, some might see this as a sign of desperation, as he’s been doing pretty poorly in the polls. Will his barbs help him out or keep him underperforming?
