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:
No Muslims
Muslim ban is in our best interest you douche bag Paul Ryan
Drain the Swamp!
Mr Speaker, why isn’t it
Please wake up these people (muslins) do not love America!
I agree
he is not worried because he is protected 24/7 by fed security. WE THE PEOPLE will decide what we want you to do paul with the muslims and we want them gone. if you decide to stand in our way you will go with them.
P Ryan can go too. Don’t trust him.
You are too stupid to make decisions
That effect the rest of us.
You want a bet asshole
