Paul Ryan has a lot of problems. For one thing, his partnership with Mitt Romney four years ago solidified his moderate, or perhaps even liberal, credentials. So often it seemed like he has had more in common with the policies of Mr. Obama than with the grassroots of his own party. Clearly, he cannot be trusted to champion conservative causes. And this is no small issue for a person who is the Speaker of the House of Representatives.
Another problem was his tepid support, at best, for Mr. Trump during the presidential election. It is inexcusable for the top elected official in the party to offer anything less than enthusiastic support for his party’s candidate for president. It wasn’t hard to conclude that Mr. Ryan was a closet supporter of Hillary Clinton.
To make matters worse, there was evidence to support the belief that Ryan was instrumental in the release of the “locker-room talk” tape that created problems for Trump. If true, that was political treason.
If Ryan truly did prefer Mrs. Clinton, then the honest thing to do would have been to resign as speaker and switch parties. Fat chance that that would have happened — it would have required an almost unprecedented level of integrity in Washington.
So now that Mr. Trump has won, Ryan sounds like he’s “Mr. Support” for Trump, but is he? More on page two.
Cut him loose
I would feed him lies and see where they go
How did he rise to this position so fast? I’d love to know the real story. I know his wife is a Dem lobbyist.
Leave with Obama, you can carry his bags to the limo, and tell him wherever he goes you go….
Get rid of this rino liberal idiot. Just join the Democratic party and be done with it buffoon.
Pretty boys got to go. Time for logic.
Don’t know does he he is so stupid the moon when it is there and the movement is going to be
We the people don’t like what the GOP has become…a handmaid of the Demobrats….time to get the party back to the basic ..
He’s absolutely right. We could have voted for an establishment candidate like Rubio or Cruz (never another Bush)…we chose the outsider.
