Former Congressman and Republican vice-presidential candidate in the 2012 election Paul Ryan confirmed that "I will not be voting for Donald Trump no matter what. Character matters. I cannot support a person of low character for the top job in our government."
Ryan fended off criticism of President Joe Biden's character, saying "using his position in government to obtain bribes for his family and himself are the normal kind of abuse of power that is common in our politics. Almost everyone does it--Republicans and Democrats alike. Our country has and can continue to survive this type of self-serving misuse of the public trust. The amounts of money involved are trivial in the context of trillions of dollars in government spending each year. That's why none of these people are being prosecuted."
"In contrast, Trump is being prosecuted in New York, Florida, Georgia, and Washington, DC," Ryan pointed out. "He is the kind of criminal that our system of government cannot abide. He is an existential threat to the entire system. His personal wealth insulates him from being influenced by the movers and shakers of the world--the big wheels who shape public policies via their donations to ensure the continuity of the established institutions, policies, and expenditures of the permanent government. Industries like weapons manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, and healthcare that are absolutely dependent upon government spending would face major disruptions if Trump is allowed to win the 2024 election."
Ryan did admit that "I won't be voting for Biden, though. He's not competent for the job. His reelection would be a disaster for the country. Instead, I'll be writing in the name of my former running mate Sen. Mitt Romney on my ballot come November."

Couldn’t care less what Paul Ryan does in any aspect of his day, much less who he intends to vote for or against.
Go away Paul. Nobody cares.
Surprise, surprise, surprise.
I’m sure President Trump is saddened by the loss of Paul Ryan’s vote. /sarc
“Character matters”? Coming from a man with such high character and integrity.
Says the big time loser.
I’m still pissed I voted for the slimy weasel.
paul ryan is still registered as GOP?
LOL-——Ryan said Joe Biden “using his position in government to obtain bribes for his family and himself is normal......the everyday abuse of power that is common in our politics. Almost everyone does it. We continue to survive this type of self-serving misuse of the public trust by our elected betters who are sap-happily bilking the taxpayers 24/7. None of these crooked pols are prosecuted b/c they are generous with bribes.”
A person of low political character between Donald Trump and Paul Ryan? That’s a no-brainer. The answer is obvious when you look at the promises each made and their record when they had the ability to transform their
promises into a political reality.
Paul is an oily creep who likes to spend his spare time in men’s locker rooms.
Maybe because the Donald told us you’re a RINO
Butt head
Gee, I’m heartbroken. Paul who?
Shut up Paul, and go home and get your ______ shinebox!
Are you sure this isn’t a Bee article?
“ Ryan fended off criticism of President Joe Biden’s character, saying “using his position in government to obtain bribes for his family and himself are the normal kind of abuse of power that is common in our politics”
And that’s the reason they hate Trump because he’s not a disgusting corrupt POS like Ryan is. He clearly admits his own corruption
At first I thought they meant Dick Cheney.
Does Ryan still vote in WI? Is he for Baldwin’s reelection?
Ryan thinks ripping off American and selling us out is “business as usual”
He should be tried hung and shot
RINO traitor. Talk about lack of character...
