Rand: ‘Trump Would Be a Disaster for the Country and a Disaster for Our Party’

RUSH TRANSCRIPT:

ANCHOR: "All right, senator, as you know this pledge, the loyalty pledge, this is all the buzz today in politics with your field. You have called Donald Trump a fake conservative. You said this week that if trump wins the nomination, the GOP would suffer its biggest defeat since Barrie Goldwater lost to Johnson. Have you signed the loyalty pledge? And if Donald Trump were to be the nominee, would you support him?" 
PAUL: "I'll support whoever the nominee is and I will sign the pledge. I signed a pledge when I ran for Senate because, frankly, you need all of the Republicans to come together. I do think Donald Trump would be a disaster for the country and a disaster for our party. I think we'd suffer the worst defeat since 1964. I don't think you want a nominee that offends whole areas of the public, whole ethnic groups. If you say most hispanics are drug dealers and rapists and murderers, well, that's crazy talk and that offend a whole segment of our community. Most came here seeking the American dream the same way my ancestors did. Are there some people who break the law? Absolutely. Should they be punished? Absolutely. Painting with a broad brush that all immigrants are bad people is a terrible thing to say and will be a disaster for our party. I also think he's a fake conservative because he's not supported any conservative notions. He's for raising your taxes. He's been for Obamacare and he's also been for taking private property from small property owners and giving it to them. That's why he pays so much money for politicians so he can get them to take people's property through eminent domain and absorbs it into his casino business. I don't think there's anything conservative about trump. Ultimately when conservatives find out he's a fake conservative, they're going to re-evaluate the race."
