Paul Ryan is being roasted on Twitter for toasting a Friends of Ireland lunch event with a flat pint of Guinness.

The Republican Speaker of the House is of Irish descent, but has unknowingly become the joke of St Patrick's Day 2017.

It all began when an Irish woman Naomi O'Leary tweeted a photo of Ryan holding his 'appalling' pint.

'Grave missteps by the US' she wrote in the Tweet.

Probably came from a can.

There is a pub here in Tulsa that has a nitrogen based system. Best pint in town!

They don’t quite get around to calling it what it is: fake, manufactured outrage, over nothing.

Do we have to start suffering through half-assed episodes of Ryan Derangement Syndrome now too?

Exactly. What little foam that is left does look to be of the Guinness variety. This non-story simply makes the left look even more mean-spirited and unhinged than they already do. And I don't even like Ryan(o).

I’m no Ryan fan but this attack is beyond ridiculous.

I’ve shared many a Guinesss. Looks to me like that one has been sitting for a bit. It still has foam but it’s mostly settled.

Europeans just suck.

Back when I worked for a Tulsa firm, the new sales crew went to lunch as a get-acquainted meeting. The restaurant featured their “Tatami Room.”

I asked the waiter where the tatami was and he said “you’re in it.”

“Probably came from a can.”

Guiness cans have a nitrogen canister in them - when you pour the beer, it’s a real Guiness.

An Englishman, Scotsman, and an Irishman walk into a bar and order a Guinness. As the bartender slides the beers across the bar, a fly lands in the head of each beer.

The Englishman looks at the beer with disgust, pushes the beer back to the bartender and says, “I can’t drink that!”

The Scotsman looks at the beer, picks the fly out of his beer, flicks it across the bar and then downs his Pint.

The Irishman looks at his beer in horror, grabs the fly by the wings and vigorously shakes the fly over his beer shouting, “Spit it out! Spit it out ya bastad!”

“Grave missteps by the US?”

Just when I think these Euro-weenies can’t possibly be bigger aholes, they go and top themselves.

Thank you. Since I'm always fair about this kind of stuff all the time, maybe he drank some of it already.

There's still reason enough to not trust the guy, though.

FAKE NEWS. Did she taste the beer herself to confirm? Did she watch it come out of the tap or get poured out of a bottle/can, and then time how long it sat in the glass? Does she know whether Ryan prefers flat beer? And, if so, isn’t it his cup, his choice?

I enjoy Guinness as much as I enjoy disparaging Paul Ryan, but from my vantage point the beer looks perfectly normal and he looks as smug as he always does. Nothing worth a report in a newspaper.

The media continues their anti-Trump anti-GOP march 24/7.

They think they’re “influencing” opinion, but people see the bias.

Truth is, is Ryan weren’t such a putz messing up our country, we’d acknowledge this complaint as meaningless.

By the way, just how accurately do the Irish celebrate the 4th of July? Oh, wait, presumably they don’t celebrate it at all.
