Well thank you very much Mr. Future Former Speaker of the House.

And, just a reminder to you to have a look at all of those YouTune videos of the Charlottesville riot. Not clear who initiated the fighting. Helmets on both sides. Baseball bats on both sides. Lots of innocent people, presumably from both sides.

We await YOUR apology Mr. FFS of the H.

It is the House that should be censored. Trump told the truth and the House prefers to support lies. That is evil.

But Hussein and Pelosi siding with the BLM racist terror organization that led to multiple cops being assassinated from Dallas to New York city is perfectly OK. No protests, no censure. There is not a middle finger big enough in this universe to stick in the faces of the SCUMBAGS.

Again Ryan tries to split the baby.

What he does not realize is the animus it creates in the GOP base.

Sheer hatred.

House Speaker Paul Ryan said...Trump “messed up” by saying “both sides” were to blame for violence. Apparently Ryan hasn’t watched the videos of BLM activists and Antifa terrorists assaulting people.

Congress isn’t going to do anything about Left-wing terror organizations while Paul Ryan is Speaker of the House.

“Ryan said censuring Trump would be “counterproductive.”

“If we descend this issue into some partisan hack-fest, into some bickering against each other and demean it down into some political food fight, what good does that do to unify this country?” Ryan said, adding that it would be the “worst thing we could do.” …


Good for Ryan... he’s right on this issue. That said, here’s somethings he should check out:

“Note the brand-new fold -creases flags, the band-new 5.11 “fed agent issue” tactical pants, many other actor clues...
$25+ per hour plus reimbursemtnts for gas/parking/Uber/public transit...

ACTUAL CRAIGSLIST AD from just before Charlottesville...

Both sides are to blame! And there were "very fine people among those marching". POTUS was spot on!

Trumps base and most of "We The People" do thoroughly understand what author George Orwell prophesied when he wrote......... “Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.”

Orwell's pronouncement happened before (and many times since) look up and read...."...total destruction of Corinth.

I’d still like to see Ryan put the resolution to a vote on the floor of the House.

It will most certainly let us know who our committed enemies are.

Individually.

The party has been very, very good at shielding individuals by holding votes on bills that are already tweaked down to be non-controversial. Allowing “votes of conscience” on the fringe.

There’s no way to tweak such a resolution.

He only refused to censure out of fear. Otherwise, he’d probably be all for it.

By his tacit support of Antifa, Ryno shows his actual ideology.

Exactly right. The playbook was prepared long ago. The only thing he could possibly said that would have placated the insane left and MSM would have been “I quit.”

It is awful the radical left has every pol so cowed that none will stand up for Trump’s obviously truthful and measured words.

Ryan’s reference to “partisan hack-fest” says it all. He views Trump as the political enemy of the GOP, i.e. the Uni-party. Trump is the ultimate outsider and will never be accepted by Ryan, McConnell or the vast majority of GOP politicians. Ryan is the enemy and Trump should treat him as such.

Ryan’s house will do nothing at all to help this nation. ALL they are good for is to halt our President’s agenda and attempt to bring him down. Walking that very fine tight rope only gets you only so far before falling to your death.

The bad may be bad but not as bad as the bad men in our “highly *esteamed* really bad congress” who happens to be paid entirely too much considering their ineptitude.

Ryan’s chickens will come home to roost and when they do, we’ll have US some BBQ hens.

...but he will bad mouth him at every opportunity.

The only thing he needs to catch up with Boehner is a little time.
