Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) listed a set of standards former President Donald Trump has to meet before he takes an active role and endorses the presumptive GOP nominee.
“When we have agreed, I’ve been very supportive. When we have disagreed, I’ve also disagreed with him,” Paul said in an interview with Spectrum News.
Before Paul can endorse Trump, the latter needs to be more outspoken on issues the Kentucky senator deems critical, he said.
“I think that it’s important that if he wants to get my vote and my support, wants me to be more active in this, that he’s gonna have to be more vocal on things like the lockdowns that I opposed, like the civil liberties abuses that I opposed, like the debt, which frankly has been bad under Republicans and Democrats,” according to Paul.
“So, I’m looking for a little bit more before I make a final decision.”

Paul did, however, appear to affirm his support for Trump in the 2024 presidential election.
“I’m supportive of Donald Trump,” he said. “But whether or not I take an active role, endorse, go out and campaign for him is something that’s yet to be determined.”
