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:
He has been taught well by the likes of Lindsey Graham, John McCain etc. I’m sure President Trump knows he’s a backstabber and is assessing that situation. His mind runs a 100 mph all the time.
I disagree.
You’re an idiot and don’t have americas best interest at heart!
Paul Ryan doesn’t make that decision for me and my family!!!
I wish but doubt it.
The hell you say paul
It’s not in Paul Ryans interest, that’s pretty plain to see. Well, I guess bettering America is not in his best interests either. He sucks!!!!
I hope he goes.
