Voters on both sides of the political aisle this year came out by the millions to tell Washington insider politicians that they have had enough of business as usual. In the Democratic primary, Bernie Sanders, however, was ultimately unable to overcome the superdelegate system rigged so heavily in favor of Hillary Clinton.
With a more open and fair system on the Republican side, billionaire businessman Donald Trump was able to ride a wave of anti-establishment anger, and emerge as the victor out of a crowd of 17 candidates. Even candidates who are normally considered “outsiders” — such as Senator Ted Cruz — were unable to satisfy the anti-Washington voters this year.
House Speaker Paul Ryan, while beloved by many in the Republican establishment, finds himself at odds with many conservative voters in the 2016 presidential election. On Tuesday, Speaker Ryan again went against the wishes of much of the Republican electorate when he reiterated his dissent regarding Donald Trump’s proposed ban on Muslims entering the United States.
To read what Speaker Ryan had to say at his Tuesday press conference, and how he is further alienating himself from many conservatives, continue reading on the next page:
Yes it is. Why would you import a group of people bent on killing you and taking over your cou try?
He wants to take away our Railroad Retirement program.
This idiot needs eye drops!
Paul ryan in not in our countrys best interest
Are you kidding?? Get in the game Ryan!
Just when I thought Paul Ryan was coming to his senses… His RINO side resurfaces. RINOs can’t be trusted can they?
Paul Ryan – you are wrong until we can get these people vetted. This country can’t take any more illegals. Look up the term please. If you are coming into this country not following our immigration laws then one is an illegal and needs shipped out.
we the ppl believe it is in our best interest, you have just been bought by the enemy you turncoat
Paul Ryan, it might not be in your best interest to ban Muslims but it sure is in ours. You and the GOP establishment can’t swallow what we the people want. We need a ban to keep terrorists out. What part you don’t understand ???!
Then do your job and do back ground checks on every one of them coming into this country!! I agree with Louis McMurl!!
