Sen. Rand Paul was harassed by a couple of left-wing protesters as he tried eating lunch while at a California restaurant.
“While having lunch with @RandPaul in California, we got verbally assaulted by these aggressive libs complaining about incivility. Check out the vid! #unhinged,” Sergio Gor, the deputy chief of staff for Paul, said Friday on Twitter.
The video starts with a woman flipping off the camera as it appears she is trying to operate her cellphone’s camera.
“You just ran into two people from New York, kiddo, and we’re not putting up with your Republican bulls–t,” she shouts.
The video then pans to a man who appears to be lecturing the Kentucky Republican about how the two do not have “much in common.”
“We are Americans,” the man says as the 24-second video ends.

Paul tweeted out the video from his account, saying, “The left blames incivility on @realDonaldTrump. Watch this video and decide who the rude ones are.”

During the 2018 confirmation hearings of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh, Paul was chased down by protesters at D.C.’s airport demanding he vote against the future justice’s nomination. The senator eventually voted “yes.”
