House Speaker Paul Ryan said today he's looking forward to a "straight conversation" with Donald Trump about the state of the Republican Party and the 2016 presidential race when the two meet on Capitol Hill Thursday, after expressing reluctance about endorsing Trump's White House bid.

"We have right now a disunified Republican Party. We shouldn't sweep it under the rug without addressing it," Ryan, R-Wis., said in an interview with the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel today. "That would be to our detriment in the fall."

Has continued to block the obvious articles of impeachment - just like his predecessor. Has continued to enable rather then stop the enemy agent in our Casablanca. Trump owes him nothing and he has offered no support so let him go away if he wants. He’s worse than useless. Sorry to have to say — I’d hoped for better from him but that’s the way he is.

I would assume that given Trump has had a week to think this meeting over, Ryan is at great disadvantage.

The sad truth is when these guys lose their elected jobs, they move on to low 7 figure lobbying salaries in DC.

If we were to repeal the 16th amendment, end the IRS and federal income tax, we could eliminate a large number of those lobbying jobs.

I can only imagine having a meeting with Donald Trump sitting across from me with his eyes at full phaser settings.

This is a first for me - a total badass as my presidential candidate. He will make Paul wet his pants.

Private Ryan seems to be a bit full of himself. I will enjoy seeing him take a fall.

I have a place in my heart for Judas. I have a different view that he was not a traitor—betrayer.

Paul Ryan is a POS compared to Judas, IMO.

Even if the conversation stays totally straight, Trump still should be very careful not to turn his back to Ryan.

“We have right now a disunified Republican Party.”

And of course, the pathetic twerp thinks that the way to heal the party is for Trump to abandon the issues that won him the nomination, in the same fashion that Ryan and the GOP abandoned their issues that won them their seats, so they could implement Obama’s agenda.

He’s gonna have to get back in the closet before he can have a straight conversation with anybody. Don’t trust anybody who looks like Eddie Munster Donald!

Somehow using the Word "Straight" can be used as a Hate Crime. Trump may want to find his Safe Place. Please Speaker Ryan stop using hurtfull rhetoric. You need to change your Tone!! Please...😢 Go Trump

Maybe Trump doesn’t care to talk to him.

I hope that Wisconsin gets rid of this loser! He has become quite the sellout to the American voters.

Getting rid of him would be another nice message for the establishment hacks.

If Trump wants to sweep the field, including Hillary, before the Republican convention, let him release his list of upcoming Supreme Court nominees

I think he did that some time back, named 5 specific individuals.
