If House Speaker Paul Ryan’s own Facebook page is any indication of how well he will fare in next Tuesday’s all-important primary race against upstart challenger Paul Nehlen, it might not be smooth sailing for the 16-year incumbent come Election Day.
In fact, Ryan’s campaign is showing signs of “melting down,” at least if social media is to be taken as a barometer. The level of antipathy toward Ryan on his two Facebook sites has been heating up in recent days as the election draws closer.
“There’s such a deluge of comments negative to Paul Ryan on Ryan’s own Facebook site. Ryan’s problems with Trump are also a big factor in the backlash, you can see that in the comments,” said William Gheen, president of Americans for Legal Immigration, or ALIPAC.
ALIPAC launched a new ad campaign earlier this week casting Ryan and “Lyin Ryan,” a politician who supports Obama’s amnesty orders and his expanded refugee resettlement programs, which funnel Shariah-compliant Muslims into more than 200 U.S. cities and towns from Syrian, Afghanistan, Iraq and Somalia by the tens of thousands annually.
The stream of Facebook comments are more than 90 percent negative against Ryan as voters express their disgust with Ryan’s stance on trade and immigration.
Gheen said he noticed this momentum against Ryan started 48 hours after a WND article about Ryan’s pro-refugee stance and the new ad campaign was linked to the Drudge Report.
The GOP primary race for Wisconsin’s first congressional district has come into national focus as Nehlen has shown himself more than capable of taking on the Ryan juggernaut. Ryan started out with a massive lead over the unknown Nehlen, an inventor who has employed hundreds in his successful water-filtration manufacturing business over the years.

How sweet it is~ The day Ryan walks out of Congress is the day I’ll be dancing in the street and singing from the rooftop. LOL DJT was so funny throwing his exact same words right back to his pitiful young boy face. Ryan’s loss would be a good sign for Trump I’ma thinking. Get a true Conservative in the Speaker’s chair. Something better than ly’n Ryan. He will then be freed to go play with his Muslim friends. He can volunteer to be their new whipping boy.
The laughter alone would shrink their PP's to non dangerous levels.
Maybe this once they can see past that.
Most xcellent
;)
It’s certainly a good sign. Paul Ryan got a standing ovation at the Koch Bros after promising to get TPP passed. He won’t do it with Trump, so what does that tell you?
The biggest problem I think is that its Wisconsin. Wisconsin was the #NeverTrump movement’s last stand. It was Cruz’s last big (actually last period) victory. Charlie Sykes is still a prolific #NeverTrump shill. For a while, Paul Ryan had a sky high approval rating, but Nehlen said on Lou Dobbs that it has gone down as Nehlen has campaigned. I think this will end up being based on name recognition (it’s hard to primary an established figure - especially one in such a high position) and the amount of fed up Trump voters voting in the district. It will be interesting if the cross over Dems vote Ryan to hurt Trump or vote Nehlen to hurt Ryan.
Ryan will win easily. Too much money, too much name recognition and too much goodwill built up over the years to lose an election in his district.

Yet the milquetoast basks in the rays of his Lord and Master
I don’t need any convincing about Ryan really. This is not just Obama and Ryan either. It’s been going on for decades now.
Wisconsin! It’s clobberin’ time!
I agree
I promise to dance for joy if Ryan is Cantorized.
UNIPARTY PR hack.
Facebook would censor the sitting Speaker of the House? On multiple pages? I would ROFLMAO if that were to happen. And I would really laugh if he called them out for it and got reinstated.
perhaps i didn’t make myself clear but I didn’t miss the point-
supposed someone make a negative remark about him on his FB
book and they were censored!!...
that’s what I meant.
