Paul Nehlen: ‘Paul Ryan’s Elitism is Showing,’ ‘Disdain for the American Electorate Is Breathtaking’
breitbart.com ^ | 5/6/16 | Dan Riehl

Asked about what Politico reported as Paul Ryan “ditching” presumptive GOP nominee Donald Trump, “It was stunning,” Ryan’s primary challenger Paul Nehlen told Breitbart News Daily SiriusXM host Stephen K. Bannon.

“I couldn’t believe it,” continued Nehlen. “I don’t know where you get off…” pausing to read from, then direct listeners to a new Nehlen campaign press release on the subject, “Paul Ryan’s elitism is showing. He’s apparently decided that the American electoral process of a representative republic isn’t good enough. His disdain and disrespect for the American electorate is breathtaking.”

The release continues:

“It doesn’t matter whether Speaker Ryan approves of candidate Trump or not,” noted Nehlen. “It doesn’t matter whether any congressional leader approves of him. It matters even less if RNC leadership approves of him—including Paul Ryan. The fact is, the American people have spoken in state after state after state. They’ve made their choice. It is petulant, arrogant, disrespectful—and in many senses dangerous—to our representative system of government to tell people across this nation who took the time to cast a vote, ‘Sorry, I’m not cool with your choice.’ It is for the people to decide who they want to lead, not for one man or a cabal of party elites.”

“Primary is August 9th”

Thanks. That was my question.

It will be cool to see Ryan get Cantorized.

I like this guy! I hope the people of his district are able to mitigate Wisconsin’s earlier selection of Cruz over Trump with this primary.

I’m sure that Trump can get his man Boehner in again. They are both deal makers...

For years, that bunch of self identified “conservatives” have stood and give us mirror practiced speeches that told us just how much they saw what bothered us and they were going to fix the problems...”Just vote for us and we’ll take care of everything...”

Well, we did...They were elected...

We waited....and waited.....Nothing happened...

“The democrats wouldn’t let us do what we said...”, they pouted...

In the mean time, they sat with the democrats, eating, drinking, and being merry, all the while laughing their asses off at us for trusting them....

It was worse than that, JBW. Ryan and his ilk worked with democrats to secure the votes to pass their budgets, which increased government and fully funded Obama’s agenda. He did that to thwart the remaining republican opposition to the bill. It was an amazing betrayal and it can not be overlooked.

It’s not so much ‘eliteism’ with Ryan as it is corruption. He’s a Trojan horse.

Who runs the GOP and owns Paul Ryan & Marco Rubio? Let’s name names!
