President Donald Trump lashed out at Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) after he threatened to vote against the president's funding bill.

In posts to his Truth Social platform on Tuesday, Trump expressed frustration over attempts to have the Senate pass his "Big Beautiful Bill."

"Rand Paul has very little understanding of the BBB, especially the tremendous GROWTH that is coming," the president wrote. "He loves voting 'NO' on everything, he thinks it's good politics, but it's not. The BBB is a big WINNER!!!"

"Rand votes NO on everything, but never has any practical or constructive ideas," he added several minutes later. "His ideas are actually crazy (losers!). The people of Kentucky can't stand him."

Paul has stated that he would oppose the bill because it includes a $5 trillion increase in the debt ceiling.

"I think it's a terrible idea to do this," Paul told reporters on Monday. "They're borrowing 5 trillion. That means they're anticipating the following year being over 2 trillion as well. So it's just not a conservative thing to do."
