Paul Ryan: Donald Trump can help make reality of bold House policy agenda
gazettextra.com ^ | 06/02/2016

Posted on 06/02/2016 12:19:49 PM PDT by BenLurkin

As I said from the start, my goal has been to unite the party so we can win in the fall. And if we’re going to unite, it has to be over ideas. Donald Trump and I have talked at great length about things such as the proper role of the executive and fundamental principles such as the protection of life.

The list of potential Supreme Court nominees he released after our first meeting was very encouraging. But the House policy agenda has been the main focus of our dialogue. We’ve talked about the common ground this agenda can represent. We’ve discussed how the House can be a driver of policy ideas. We’ve talked about how important these reforms are to saving our country. And we’ve talked about how, by focusing on issues that unite Republicans, we can work together to heal the fissures developed through the primary.

Through these conversations, I feel confident he would help us turn the ideas in this agenda into laws to help improve people’s lives. That’s why I’ll be voting for him this fall.

It’s no secret that he and I have our differences. I won’t pretend otherwise. And when I feel the need to, I’ll continue to speak my mind. But the reality is, on the issues that make up our agenda, we have more common ground than disagreement.

For me, it’s a question of how to move ahead on the ideas that I—and my House colleagues—have invested so much in through the years. It’s not just a choice of two people, but of two visions for America. And House Republicans are helping shape that Republican vision by offering a bold policy agenda, by offering a better way ahead. Donald Trump can help us make it a reality.

Ryan wants open borders, the migration, and most of all, TPP.

Trump needs to dump Paul.

Great, another “leader” personifies ‘leading from behind’ someone. WTH does Ryan want to be the speaker for?

I guess that first meeting with Ryan was a bust for Ryan : )

He was raised from a puppy to be a NWO globalist. Trump knows this, and will treat him accordingly.

Paul Ryan was perfectly okay with both Juan McCain and Mittens Romney.

That says it all, right there.

I’m voting for Trump because I want the TRUMP agenda. Not some veiled RINO pseudo-conservative BS that will just sink our nation further into ruin....

I notice he thinks he is the House. Trump needs to get a sizable number of House Republicans who are loyal to him, not Ryan, so they can keep Ryan in check and force him to go along with the America First Agenda, which Ryan opposes.

This junior leaguer is trying to lean on TRUMP.

More laws. Yes, THAT’s the ticket!

None of this door kicking and dismantling of the globalist agenda killing our country. More “laws” are needed! /sarc

TRUMP needs to cork this little guy and burn the “AGENDA”
on the White House lawn.

RINO RYAN has No plans to leave or help Trump with anything but to make sure he doesn’t get into the White House:

Ms. Ruth Guerra leaves the DC-based RNC and heads to American Action Network.

Helen Aguirre Ferre, a notorious Trump-hater, moves to DC to work closely with House Speaker Paul Ryan, stroke his immigration “principles”, and aid Ryan’s BFF Reince Preibus.

[…] Ms. Aguirre Ferre also explained why she thought House Speaker Paul D. Ryan (R-Wis.) was withholding support from Trump.

“He has a particular function. And that is that he needs to ensure and guarantee that Republicans maintain the majority in the House of Representatives,” she said. “And that’s his principle task. For those who know Paul Ryan, they know he doesn’t have much in common with Trump ideologically and in moral character, either.” –link–

This statement right here explains it all: Romney, Bush, Clinton, Barky, Senators, House Reps....and the reason why Paul Ryan won’t endorse Trump....they think their way: Bush, Cruz or Hillary...end of subject to them...

Well WE the American Voters have this election, along with the Latinos, Hispanics, and Legal Voters from other countries and there are more of us than there is of them, so let the show begin, because WE are NOT giving UP; WE are NOT giving IN; and We are going to WIN!!!

GO.TRUMP.GO!!! ALL THE WAY TO THE OVAL OFFICE!!!

As expected, Ryan gave this packaged CYA endorsement and wisely decided not to join the wasteland now populated by those on the list of Trump’s GOP enemies.

Correct. This is good for the Trump campaign. Very surprised so many here don’t see that.

what will be a sight to behold is when Ryan tries to “negotiate” with Trump. He’ll be trying harder to keep the elite gravy train rolling than any of the so called negotiations with Obama...

Ryan is after the ticket in 2020...... after he sabotages a TRUMP presidency, along with his European courtiers and Wall Street/Soros cabal, who reside in the Republican and Democrat parties.
