If Ryan doesn’t get to 50% on Aug 9th, does that mean there will be a runoff?
“If we toss Ryan aside just because he is insufficiently enthusiastic about Donald Trump,”
Ryan is much too supportive of the Obama agenda (hello Omnibus!),,,THAT’s why he is being thrown aside. That plus many in WI used to support him but feel betrayed by his lack of spine and total disconnect while in DC. Little to do with Trump. Trump support/or lack of, is just one of the more recent complaints against Ryan.
Paul Ryan has nobody to blame, but himself. He sold out to the Democrats and now he is getting what he deserves: get defeated in the primary.
THANKS for posting that Nehlen video — it is a must see:

Unbelievable. SHAME on ryan & enablers.
Hm.........Aug 9 is a twofer day: start of NFL pre-season and Ryan’s departure day. So there really is a God!!!
Think I’ll have a big party.
43 percent is large in a WI primary without runoffs.
No, no northern state has runoffs.
I can see Pelosi flying into Janesville if this really becomes serious c. Aug. 2 to endorse Ryan. She will say, “If I can’t be Speaker again, let’s just keep Ryan.”
I think the odds of Ryan-o winning again are nearly 90 percent, but maybe I am wrong. I have been. But these are Badgers!
Only two previous sitting Speakers lost their reelections, Tom Foley in 1994 and Galusha A. Grow in 1862.
Ryan would be the only Speaker to lose in the primary by his own party.
