WASHINGTON — Sen. Rand Paul’S (R-Ky.) kick-off to his presidential campaign hasn’t gone quite as smoothly as he would have liked! Now the senator has admitted he is is an equal-opportunity hater of journalists, regardless of whether they’re men or women, reports The Huffington Post.
“I think I’ve been universally short-tempered with both male and female reporters. I’ll own up to that,” he said Wednesday in an interview with CNN’s Wolf Blitzer. “I’ll have to get better at holding my tongue and holding my temper. But I think it’s pretty equal-opportunity.”
The Kentucky Republican, who is running for president, got heated with NBC’s Savannah Guthrie earlier in the day after the “Today” show anchor prefaced her question by noting the senator’s shifting views on Israel, Iran and the defense budget. “No, no, no, no, no, listen, you’re editorializing,” he told Guthrie.
