Trump has a proven track record of hiring the right people to get the job done right. And Trump just told Ryan that he just failed his first interview!
In other words, you'd better find yourself another job because you have already proven that your performance has been lousy, so we will be looking for someone else who will do the job right.
Yes, an alpha male that’s a Patriot, THANK YOU, JESUS!!! As a Vet so tired of being disrespected as a country and as a Vet.
Here’s the link to the campaign video of the guy who is running in the primary against Ryan.
It’s a pretty good ad.
Ryan isn’t even a beta; he’s an omega.
Trumps mind would allocate Ryan to a person who helped pass the Iran Deal, which was so horribly bad for America.
Ryan was already on Trump’s scrap heap.
Ryan is a short timer now.He is completely useless to Trump’s making America Great Again , an obstacle.So Ryan has tossed down a gauntlet he should not have. Ryan is finished. If Ryan had been smart he would have gotten right behind Trump as a supporter. Ryan is done as Speaker. Finito.
DD Still BUT HURT HAHAHA
Pres Donald Trump:
I am the chairman and president of The Trump Organization. I like saying that because it means a great deal to me. There are almost twenty thousand members of this organization at this point. I did a print ad once in which I declared, “I only work with the best.” That statement still stands. More and more, I see that running a business is like being a general. Calling the shots carries a great deal of responsibility, not only for yourself, but for your troops. Your employees’ lives, to a large extent, are dependent on you and your decisions.
Bad strategy can end up affecting a lot of people. This is where being a leader takes on a new dimension. Every decision you make is an important one, whether there are twenty thousand people working for you or just one. If you are careful when finding employees, management becomes a lot easier. I rely on a few key people to keep me informed.
They know I trust them, and they do their best to keep that trust intact. For example, when I need to know something about my casinos and hotels in Atlantic City, I know I can call up Mark Brown, my CEO, and get a fast and informed answer. If I call Laura Cordovano over at Trump Park Avenue and ask about sales, she’ll give it to me exactly as it is. If I call Allen Weisselberg, my CFO, he’ll tell me what I need to know in twenty words or less. My senior counsel and Apprentice adviser, George Ross, can do it in ten words or less. Find people who suit your business style and you’ll have fewer problems to deal with as time goes on.
Good people equals good management and good management equals good people. They have to work together or they won’t work together for very long. I’ve seen good management get by with mediocre people, and I’ve also seen excellent people get stuck in the mires of bad management. The good managers will eventually leave, followed by the good workers, and you will be left with a team that gets along because they’re all mediocre.
Save yourself time by getting the best people you can. Sometimes this can mean choosing attitude over experience and credentials. Use your creativity to come up with a good mix.
I LOVE Ryan, but he blew this big time....sorry.

One of my former employees was in charge of a new project. He had done a thorough and acceptable job, but I felt that something was missing. It wasn’t fantastic, which, knowing his capabilities, it should have been. I decided to challenge his creative ego by mentioning that it was fine but seemed to lack inspiration. I politely asked him whether he was genuinely interested in the project and suggested that perhaps that might be the problem.
Well, the guy went ballistic on me. He was deeply insulted. And, as you can probably guess, the revision he turned in was terrific. The difference between the first draft and the final version was incredible. I didn’t slam the guy because he was usually demanding of himself and had never let me down. But I had to give him a jolt.
Generals motivate their soldiers; they inspire them when it is necessary. They do the same for their highest-ranking officers. We all need a boost now and then. Learn how to tailor your method to the personalities you are managing. Keep the big picture in mind while attending to the daily details. This can seem like a balancing act, but it is absolutely necessary for success in running a company.

Creative people rarely need to be motivated—they have their own inner drive that refuses to be bored. They refuse to be complacent. They live on the edge, which is precisely what is needed to be successful and remain successful.
William Levitt, the master builder of Levittown, taught me the true meaning of “momentum.” In the 1950s, he was the king. No detail was too small for his attention. He would personally collect stray nails and extra chips of wood from building sites to make sure his construction crews used all available materials. He sold his company in 1956 to ITT for $100 million, which is equivalent to billions today.
Then he made some terrible mistakes. He retired. He married the wrong woman. He moved to the south of France and lived on the Riviera with his new boat and his new wife. One day, ITT called. The executives in charge of the conglomerate had no aptitude for home building.
They had bought huge tracts of land but didn’t know how to get them zoned. So they sold it back to Levitt, who thought he’d gotten a great deal He went back into business. And he proceeded to go bankrupt. I saw William Levitt at a cocktail party in 1994, two weeks before he died. He was standing by himself in a corner, looking defeated. I didn’t know him well, but I approached him, hoping to acquire some wisdom from the master. “Mr. Levitt,” I said, “how are you doing?” “Not good, Donald, not good.”
Then he said the words I’ll never forget. “I lost my momentum. I was out of the world for twenty years, I came back, and I wasn’t the same.” No matter how accomplished you are, no matter how well you think you know your business, you have to remain vigilant about the details of your field. You can’t get by on experience or smarts. Even the best surgeons need to be retrained regularly, to stay current on the latest research and procedures. No matter what you’re managing, don’t assume you can glide by. Momentum is something you have to work at to maintain.
TOTALLY incorrect, he is just fine and Wisconsin loves him....he did blow this opportunity to help unify the party, but Ryan is perfectly fine in his views.
Whoa DD is even coming around, just like all the Cruz supporters will sooner or later, Broncos won also he he

Surround yourself with people you can trust. I often say it’s good to be paranoid, but not when it comes to your home team. Ask God for a great assistant. No joke. A great one can make your life a whole lot easier—or, in my case, almost manageable. Norma Foerderer has been with me for twenty-three years. If you want to know what a great guy I am, just ask her.
But not on a Friday. Handling me, the office, and several hundred calls a week isn’t easy. She’s as tough and smart as she is gracious. She’s also indefatigable, which helps a lot if you work for me. My phones are so busy that I require two executive assistants, and they never stop. They alone handle, on the average, more than 1,250 calls a week.
They are not only efficient and fast, but also very pleasant and beautiful young women. You don’t have to be beautiful to work for me—just be good at your job. I’ve been accused of admiring beautiful women. I plead guilty. But when it comes to the workplace, anyone who is beautiful had better have brains, too. You need competent people with an inherent work ethic. I’m not a complacent person and I can’t have a complacent staff. I move forward quickly and so must they.
Good people equals good management and good management equals good people. They have to work together or they won’t work together for very long. I’ve seen good management get by with mediocre people, and I’ve also seen excellent people get stuck in the mires of bad management. The good managers will eventually leave, followed by the good workers, and you will be left with a team that gets along because they’re all mediocre.

Thanks for sharing. Very interesting insight into the thoughts of Trump and Levitt - two visionaries.
It was measured, presidential, and put the onus on Ryan to place the interests of the American people ahead of politics. He needs more of that "
WE need more of that! It was a beautiful reply, impossible to rebut.
We hired a COMMUNITY ORGANIZER who proceeded to put us into separate groups. It divided our house, shook and cracked its foundation.
Now we’re going to storm it, loot it, and raze what’s left of it.
So we’re hiring a GENERAL CONTRACTOR to preside over the restoration.
It’s all pretty simple, really.
And IIRC, the Speaker is 3rd in line.
Nope, he’s second in line.
First in line is the vice president.
Hey you! Still living out in the desert?
Hey, Stranger, Yep, still here in PX, how are you, you seemed to have dropped off for a while. How is life treating you?
