Louie Gohmert spills the beans, says Paul Ryan urged GOP lawmakers to campaign AGAINST Trump

On the very same day that resigning House Speaker Paul Ryan delivered his farewell address on the floor of Congress, fellow House Rep. Louie Gohmert revealed what may perhaps be the real reason why his relatively young colleague’s career has come to an unexpected end.

“Just a few weeks before the [2016] election, we were told by Paul, by our elected leaders that, gee, the only way we can keep the House majority is just all of us start running against the president,” Gohmert claimed during an interview on radio station WMAL “The Larry O’Connor Show.”

“Fortunately, we had enough people one after another on the call that pushed back so hard they backed off of that,” he added during his discussion Wednesday with guest host Derek Hunter.

Gohmert disseminated the shocking revelation during a broader discussion on how congressional Republicans seem to always be hijacking President Donald Trump’s agenda.

Ryan’s a puke and I hope he gets what’s coming to him.

Ryan-Romney their LEADER, KNOWING he

This was 2 years of TREASON/SEDITION by the GOP.

Ryan is owned by shadowy men in the deep state & other nation killing entities. He has zero self-respect.

He happily gave the Republican House majority over to the political left as his last act in office.

ROFL

A few years ago, Ryan posted a Facebook pic about him deer hunting, and got totally flamed by us Wisconites.

Louie Gohmert should have revealed this juicy tidbit at the moment it happened and not wait until RINO Ryan is on his way out the door.
I remember during the President’s first state of the Union speech that RINO Ryan was smirking at many of the things our beloved President was proposing. I wasn’t sure what to make of it but the RINO’s intentions were made clear after a short time had past. Good to see that no-good RINO Turncoat gone.

there were traitors amongst the GOP who colluded with the Deep State (incl Obama/HRC/DNC/FusionGPS/Steele/intel agencies in US and abroad) to stop Trump and later overthrow Trump...and no doubt RINO RYAN was one of them.

President Trump - release all the docs.

Gohmert waited, and they ALL knew, and that
ObamaCARE would never be repealed and
the Wall NEVER built.

They deserve to be decimated, with lots
chosen by the very voters across the USA
who have been backstabbed for 2 years as
Gohmert and the rest hid like little scheming girls.

Probably not one person in 1000 in DC wants Trump to succeed.

...

I don’t find it shocking at all. It’s what I expected.

I wouldn't even piss on him now to forestall the odd chance that he catches on fire sometime in the future.

Waste of good urine.

“The only way we can win is to run against the guy who ended up winning” says the guy who lost the last time. Great leadership!

This is quite interesting from another perspective:

Here in the recent 2018 MA gov race, I’m told that the leaders of the ‘Rat legislature were for the “R” gov, and against the ‘Rat gonzalez, for the simple selfish reason, it makes them kings of their hills. If there is a ‘Rat in the corner office, then by nature, that rat is the king of the hill, and the leaders of the legislature are relegated to play second fiddle.

But, it must be said that what Ryan did was patently a million times worse, because Trump is a real ‘R’, while Baker is a faker.

Loiue needs to be a man and pull back the curtain on their foul deeds every week on the crapitol steps. He would be a national hero and elected for life in his district.
