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:
I hope he is on his way out. He seems to be of good heart, but I fear he’s lost focus on restoring a smaller federal government.

What a$#%&!@*?
Islam is a hell spawned, Satan worshiping, violent death cult, dedicated to$#%&!@* and the only ‘peace’ it offers is the peace of death, or slavery. It has no place in a modern pluralistic and democratic society. It is locked in a medieval culture that is antithetical to western mores. It will use our ‘tolerance’ to destroy all semblance of our liberty. It is intolerant of all other faiths. It is here to invade and to subdue, not to assimilate, and it may as well be an invasion of western civilization by Klingons. Remember that for these people to kill you as an act of religious piety gains them heaven, if you kill them before they can kill you, they still get heaven as a participation prize, it’s a win win for them. Although, apparently, the presence of pork products confuses whatever creature it is that they worship.
