“Awesome word. Do you mind if I borrow it?”
Feel free! I’m sure I stole it from someone else!
Agree.
Kudos to Huelskamp for being a man of principle. Too bad he was primaries out by the GOPe.
If Ryan were a true conservative, he could have shut down 0vomitcare by controlling the budget. He didn’t. Nuff said.
Thanks for posting a thoughtful dissent. I still respectfully disagree with your take on this, but it *IS* worth thinking about and keeping in mind.
The only thing I am worried about are the freetraitors (Thanks, AuntB!) undermining Trump.
These will be epitomized by low-profile Congressmen and Senators who are bought and paid for by globalists.
They will not speak out . . . just vote against everything Trump stands for in terms of dismantling the horrid trade agreements, especially NAFTA and the WTO.

Keep an eye on the people who write the trade laws....lobbyists like GROVER NORQUIST & Cesar Conda. They are who owns people like Paul Ryan. Follow the $
Agree with your comment #39.
Machiavelli prescribed two ways to deal with enemy leaders after a city is taken.
Either:
1. Make them richer and more powerful than before, in return for their absolute support;
...... or,
2. Place their head on a pike in front of the city gates as warning to others.
It appears Trump is taking the first approach with Ryan.
Ryan is literally groveling, and licking the boots of President Elect TRUMP.
I think Ryan may want to show off his academic chops for TRUMP, especially on economic issues, and shore up some accomplishments of his own, in order to make a run in 2020, should TRUMP decide not to run, or in ‘24.
Staying relevant and getting high marks for achievement in providing TRUMP with some economic home runs doesn’t hurt either.
I would bump him from his position as Speaker right away, but TRUMP may use him and his considerable skills, long enough to get through this transition and THEN dump him. Who knows?
Ryan was effectively nevertrump.
Give up.
Leave.
Ryan completely disgust me.
Votes or not, this puke needs to go and go NOW, not wait till January. Go now. In fact, go HOME!!! And send a replacement. Hell, a democrat from his district could not be as damaging to the conservative, Christian, American Republic, as this puke has been.
