Ah, but it was “his turn” last time. I’m not saying he won’t win, and it’s not helpful that the President says such nice things about this particular hack, but we’ll just have to see.

Sounds about right. Leave the GOPe with built in failure. Heck NO. Time to call on Steve Scalise or Jim Jordan. At least they are nominal supporters of POTUS Trump.

Wow...Jim Jordan would be perfect! Thanks for posting, I hadn’t known about this before. This probably deserves its own thread if it doesn’t already have one.

Ryan is a demoncrat. A globalist(euphemism for traitor). A demoncrat fluffer. Anyone he recommends needs to be dismissed out of hand.

This POS needs to be brought to justice for what he’s done to the country.

Boehner was this very week calling the true conservatives right wing and we can’t let one of them be speaker. He’s starting up a bus tour pimping for all the rino scum in the house for re-election.
