Rand Paul actually said...

I think the president's calculation here is that it helps his campaign not to have a deal. So I don't think he cares at all about what this will do to people's retirement accounts on November 23rd, November 24th, if the stock market plummets, the president doesn't care about your retirement account. He cares only about his election and any deal will not be good for his election.

Context

Rand Paul criticizes President Obama's focus on his election over the impact of political decisions on people's retirement accounts.
