On Fox News' Hannity Thursday, GOP presidential candidate Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) said reluctantly that he would in fact support Donald Trump should he win the nomination despite thinking he's a "disaster" and a "fake conservative."
"There will be people I will be very unhappy with," Sen. Paul said about potential Republican nominees, before singling out one in particular. "I think Donald Trump's a disaster. I think he'll hurt the country and we'll lose in a landslide."
Despite the less than soaring praise for Trump, Paul said he'd "still pledge to support the nominee because I think Hillary Clinton is the worst person on the planet to run the country," adding that the emails have only "cemented the notion that she just has bad judgment."
Pressed on how he would handle encouraging voters to get out and vote for nominee Trump, Rand admitted, "I won't be enthusiastic," but he'd do it nonetheless.
Paul made clear in the interview that even though Trump's currently the party's frontrunner he wouldn't be pulling any punches, saying in the next six months he's "going to try to convince people that Donald Trump is a fake conservative":
PAUL: He's not really conservative at all. He’s been for a single-payer healthcare system, he's been for higher taxes. And really what bugs me the most is his business model has been using eminent domain to take private property from small property owners, gobble that up in order for him to make money. And I think that is something antithetical t0 the notion of freedom.
