Pragmatic = fair weather friend.

When the going gets tough, those afraid of the bullying media go wobbly.

You`re a sap, Carson. Firewall against Clinton? Would that be like the firewall he provided against Obama?

I thought Mike Lee was in Trump’s corner? I’ll admit, I’ve only been loosely paying attention as I have a baby on the way and things have been hectic. I just know I’m committed to Trump and likely to not vote for many down-ballots unless they get in line!

Pragmatic? So make no attempt to help Trump win? I wonder if there is one democrat who would be pragmatic in Hillary’s case.

Top Donald Trump adviser Ben Carson came to House Speaker Paul Ryan’s defense on Tuesday and criticized the GOP nominee for exacerbating an intra-party feud less than a month before the election.

At this point, whether they like it or not, Trump is the nominee. He is the one the party members should be backing in the election. So it is those who refuse to back him who are exacerbating the feud rather than Trump himself.

I don’t get it. And Christie put down the sausage hero long enough to say Trump’s remarks were horrible. He’s all alone, Mr. Trump.

Carson doesn't know what he is talking about!

Ryan will not be a firewall against Hillary!

Ryan hasn't done anything against Obama and won't do anything against Hillary.

It is Trump or destruction!

These Republicans had better realize it!

Mike Lee was one of the first to denounce Trump.

The country dodged well when it dumped Carson.

Trump and Ryan need to just ignore each other at this point.
They are both helping Hillary now.

There is a begged question in Dr. Carson’s argument. He assumes as his premise that Ryan is interested in a firewall against Clinton. All evidence of the last 6 years is that this is a false premise.

Trump would be better served by offering to trump Ryan by offering help to down-ballot candidates. Even if they refuse, Trump shows himself to be the candidate of all the people, not just the elite.

Ben, how about criticizing Ryan and others for exacerbating an intra-party feud less than a month before the election.

They are bringing on much greater destruction.

Could not agree more.

The “R” Party is against rebellion and want to get back to business as usual. Paul-boy is leading the way.

We really need to get organized locally and begin also to pick off these “R’s”, one at a time, where we live.

Nope, Mike Lee is part of the outrage where the words Trump has said make him more immoral and evil than everyone else.

If Ryan were half as conservative as he pretends to be, Trump would not have even run.
