Rand Edits Out 'Dumbass' Response When Asked if He's Still in Race

Tim Dionisopoulos | October 14, 2015

Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) had a sarcastic response when asked if he was still running for president during his twelve hour full-day live stream event yesterday.

Paul's response was provoked during an online question and answer session when someone from Google asked "Is Rand Paul still running for president?"

"I wouldn't be doing this dumbass live streaming if I weren't," Paul replied.

"So, yes I'm still running for president, get over it," Paul added.

Paul seemed aware that the feed was live after rhetorically asking "This is now live you cannot edit this, right?"

Paul's official Facebook page posted the video of the edited question and answer session from Google.

It appears though that the video has been edited to eliminate the "dumbass live streaming if I weren't" line.

The video directly skips over at 1:43 from "I wouldn't be doing this" and then leads directly into "Yes, I still am running for president, get over it."

Below is the full video of the exchange posted on YouTube.
