Senator Rand Paul opposes the Senate Budget deal, telling Neal Cavuto it’s because “It spends too much money, borrows too much money and, actually, we’re going to bring back Obama-era deficits. I was elected to combat Obama-era deficits.”

He says, “I remember running for office and saying we’re going to have trillion dollar annual deficits. That’s what we’re going to have this year. So now it’s Republicans in charge, busting all of the spending caps. The Democrats are complicit. Both parties, the establishment, want to spend more money. And I think part of the reason the markets are so jittery is they worry about the long-term imbalance of government debt.”

Paul reminds Cavuto that we have a twenty trillion dollar debt and we’re adding another trillion to it. He says, “This is a rotten deal and not good for any of those of us who believe that you can get too much debt for a country to bear.”

Paul says, “I’m not advocating for either shutting down the government. I’m also not advocating for keeping the damn thing open and borrowing a million dollars a minute. This is reckless spending that is out of control.”

He points out, “And you know the thing is we think when Democrats are in charge that the Republicans are the conservative party. The problem is when the Republicans are in charge there’s no conservative party and that’s kind of where we are now.”

Paul says, “Someone has to stand up and say, ‘You should spend what comes in, we should balance our ledger. And that used to be what it meant to be conservative, but a lot of so-called conservatives lose their mind once it becomes a partisan thing and they say ‘We must govern now.’ So they govern by giving us massive new debt.”
