Report: House Conservatives Plotting Removal of Paul Ryan


Reports are suggesting Paul Ryan’s days as Speaker of the House may be numbered.

Several influential House conservatives are privately plotting ways to use the legislative calendar this fall to push their hard-line agenda — including quiet discussions about possibly mounting a leadership challenge to House Speaker Paul D. Ryan.

The closed-door conversations are being led by Rep. Mark Meadows (R-N.C.), the chairman of the House Freedom Caucus, in consultation with his allies on the right, in particular Stephen K. Bannon, President Trump’s former chief strategist who recently returned to his perch as executive chairman of the Breitbart News website. Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) and other Freedom Caucus members are also involved in the talks to varying degrees, according to nearly a dozen people with knowledge of the discussions.

Here are the names listed in the reports as being ideal replacements to Paul Ryan.

The group has gone so far as to float the idea of recruiting former House speaker Newt Gingrich or former Pennsylvania senator Rick Santorum as potential replacements for Ryan (R-Wis.) should there be a rebellion. The Constitution does not require that an elected member of the House serve as speaker.

Republicans should be winning right now! We control every sector of government BUT the Republican party has become infested with RINOs. We may have a dedicated President, but what is he supposed to do when people hate the House Majority leader almost as much as the House minority leader?

In other words, people hate Ryan as much as Pelosi.

To no one’s surprise, a just-released NBC News poll reveals that feckless Republican House Speaker Paul Ryan has succeeded in becoming just as unpopular as his polarizing predecessor, San Francisco Democrat Nancy Pelosi.

The Survey/Monkey poll shows that 30% of those surveyed view Pelosi favorably, a statistical tie with Paul Ryan’s 31%. The two are also tied up in the unfavorable department, with 64% holding an unfavorable view of Pelosi, compared to 63% for Ryan.

Ryan and Pelosi have more in common they want to get down than Ryan and President Trump. Yes, President Trump told Congress to sort out the whole illegal DREAMer conundrum. However, I’m pretty darn sure that healthcare ranks a lot higher on the President’s to do list for the RINO “Sucker of the House”.

Paul Ryan may have failed healthcare, after blowing hot air for years about how he would replace it! But, that sure as hell ain’t about to stop him from protecting DREAMers#Swamp #Priorities
