How can anyone who doesn’t support REPUBLICAN VOTER’s choice as presidential candidate be considered to the republican party leader in congress?

If you don’t support the party’s voters you should not be a party leader. You don’t have to agree with the voters, but you do have to support their choice.

You also need to fight your a$$ off to put your party in charge of the executive branch instead of the other party.

LOL. The GOP will have more problems than Paul Ryan if Trump loses. Fully half of the seats they currently occupy in the House were GIFTS from the Tea Party. If the “party is over” those seats are gonna follow US not the GOP. I sense a NEW party starting. The GOP can have their backstabbing mess.

Ryan’s biggest problem will be if/when Trump wins.

Bother was a gutless drunk. Ryan is a globalist traitor. His position of importing Syrian terrorists is akin to murder. He and anyone advocating this position should be arrested for treason. Hell, I’d pack ‘em all up on a C130 and bed ‘em down at Club Gitmo

You nailed it. Ryan was a rising star, especially when he spelled out the fiasco to Obama of his Not So Afordable Care Act. Now, he’s in bed with the Kenyan, and sabotaging the party. Pathetic.

Let's shed some light on your histrionics.

Yes, Janna Little was an attorney & a K Street lobbyist.....prior to her marriage to Paul Ryan in 2000.. She quit that line of work more than 16 years ago, moved to Janesville, WI and has been a stay at home mom.

Unlike most DC politicians, the Ryan's do not own a home in Virginia. In fact, being able to return home to his family in Janesville on weekends was a required condition for Paul Ryan to accept the Speakership.

Wealthy? Perhaps nominally, after inheriting her mother's estate in 2010. A million bucks will buy you a nice house in the city of Janesville, but not so much anywhere on the East Coast. Definitely not Trump wealthy.

Yes, her uncle (through marriage) is David Boren who was a conservative Democrat politician - back when those unicorns existed.

I know you Trump guys love to rip Ryan, but attacking his wife - who has individually been out of public life for nearly 20 years - is slimy and low.

I think asking how can the Republican presidential nominee have formerly been both a self-declared Democrat and Reform party supporter is a lot more germane.

I will vote for the Donald. But some of you guys need to stop posting these conspiracy fantasies about anyone who doesn't kiss DJT's ring.

You all can do what you like but for me I have been for Trump since he announced because Our GOPe leaders sold us out.

Trump is for borders, they are not
They are for F-ed up trade deals that leave our people out of work or comppeting with low wage illegals

They want unlimited H1b visas

They don’t care if Hillary appoint liberal Scotus judges

I would love to have a conservative party, if not I just will only vote GOP for real conservatives and help primary
every Rino out of congress.

No more special interest bribe taking Rinos.

You do NOT use “leadership” and “Paul Ryan” in the same sentence.


How about “Paul Ryan and his lack of leadership”

"You all can do what you like but for me I have been for Trump since he announced because Our GOPe leaders sold us out."

I was for Cruz but then several cringe worthy events by the Cruz Campaign made me reassess and then came the incident at the Trump Rally where Cruz sided with the leftists and claimed Trump was having his supporters attack innocent protestors. After that I was done with Mr. Cruz. I switched to Trump and am happier for it.

Rod Portman stated loudly and proudly he would not have anything to do with Mr. Trump so I figure he needs to go. I am actively cyber canvasing for Scott Rupert here in Ohio I like his positions on several issues.

I am done with Uniparty Candidates. No more will I vote for any of them.

The preceding is a paid political announcement.

In further news Cruz still lost.

“there is some concern among members that if Trump loses outside groups could try to put pressure on GOP offices to dump Ryan as speaker”

So, wouldn’t the pressure be even BIGGER if Trump WINS?

Thank you for the information regarding his wife. If you can correct me on all the other crap Paul Ryan’s done during this election, and my opinion that he’s an over ambitious snake, please let me know. BTW I’m an American guy before a Trump guy.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Should the nightmare of a Hillary Presidency become real, my fervent hope is that Trump will lead his millions of supporters in the formation of a new party, and thereby relegate what’s left of the GOP to a minor cabal of traitors and liars. I am praying also that he and his family will launch an all-out effort to create a world-class news organization with the primary goal of exposing the criminal activities of Clinton and her sycophants in the government and in the Ministry of Propaganda.
