Sen. Rand Paul (Ky.)
Paul has emerged as a confidant of Trump’s, but he has also styled himself a constitutionalist throughout his Senate career and regularly bucks his party’s leadership on votes that strike at his core principles.
Paul has warned against circumventing Congress’s power of the purse.
On Thursday, he said he was “disappointed” with the president’s “intention to declare an emergency to build the wall.”
While Paul supports stronger border security, he said “extraconstitutional executive actions are wrong, no matter which party does them.”
And Paul hasn’t been shy about bucking Trump on other high-profile questions, as shown through his attempt to stop arms sales to Saudi Arabia.
He voted with Lee, Collins and Moran in December to curb the president’s war powers and regularly defends the independence of the separate branches of government.
