House Speaker Paul Ryan is refusing to support Donald Trump as the Republican nominee for president, insisting Thursday that the businessman must do more to unify the GOP.
The surprise declaration from Ryan on CNN’s “The Lead” amounted to a stunning rebuke of Trump from the Republican Party’s highest-ranking officeholder.
“I’m just not ready to do that at this point. I’m not there right now,” the Wisconsin Republican said. “And I hope to. And I want to, but I think what is required is that we unify this party.”
In a statement, Trump responded that he isn’t ready to support Ryan’s agenda.

Paul Ryan doesn't realize just how irrelevant he is.

Yes and he will find out.
DeleteIt would be funny as hell if Trump went into Ryans backyard and campaigned for his rival.
ReplyDeleteNow that's a thought!
DeleteRyan has shown himself to be a tool of the left and of the establishment of both sides.
ReplyDeleteHe doesn't back the nominee? That'll just add more fuel to the bulldozer that is trump's engine.
Ryan's a fraud and he knows pres trump won't put up with any bullshit...
Ryan and Rubio, two peas in a pod and disappointing to the extreme.
