Rand Paul: Trump ‘doesn’t like a strong, assertive woman’ [AUDIO]

Rand Paul is distinguishing himself as having the funniest insults toward the GOP front-runner, Donald Trump. Earlier this week he shared how he really felt about him with Larry Wilmore.

On Wednesday, Paul, who has found his way back to the primetime stage, offered on Kilmeade and Friends what Trump’s boycott of the debate means.

“The problem,” Paul beliefs, is that Trump “has delusions of grandeur” and “they have sort of taken over in his brain and he’s decided he’s all powerful and he gets to dictate who the moderators are… ultimately we do think that he’s gotten a little out of control.”

Kilmeade played a clip from Trump’s instagram from Tuesday claiming that “Megyn Kelly’s really biased against me” and “everybody knows that,” and thus she can’t “really be fair at a debate.”

When asked if he thought Kelly was fair, Paul responded:

I think Megyn Kelly’s a tough interviewer, and she is not a pushover, and I think he wants something a little bit easier, and he’s afraid that she might point out or ask him a question about you know either his bankruptcies, his treatment of women, a variety of things he doesn’t want to talk about.

If you watch him do interviews with women, he bullies them, he runs roughshod over them, and he doesn’t like a strong, assertive woman. And so, I think that’s more of what this is about. The things he said about her are things I can’t repeat on radio or in front of people. So no, I think he is taking it to a level of the gutter and we’ll see what the American public thinks of it.

Paul also called Trump “the king of insult and Twitter and he can change in a heart’s beat.” Love Trump or hate him, Paul has got that right about him.
