ABC News ^ | 05/09/2016 | BENJAMIN SIEGEL

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."

Even a “professional politician” has to have a resume on which to tell his previous lies....

I was wrong, he did NOT name anyone yet.

This is what he said a few days ago;

“WASHINGTON (Reuters) — Presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump said on Thursday that before the party’s convention in July, he would put out names of possible candidates he might nominate to the Supreme Court if he is elected president.”

All I can say is Ryan thinks there is disunity in the party, the best thing he could have done is to give Trump his hearty support from the get-go, instead of doing his destructive best to exacerbate whatever feelings of disunity there may be. Ryan has created untold damage, and I think he should just resign, resign his speakership, his seat, and his convention chair. Ryan is worse than useless, and has certainly damaged all of our candidates in the upcoming fall election.

If you have a place in your heart for Judas/Satan, you need to read the bible a lot more carefully.

So you want a sleazy, lying, back-stabbing, two-faced, snake in the Supreme Court.

Trump should tell Ryan to resign from the RNC and the Senate or there will be consequences.

I think there is a picture of him running a lemonade stand when he was 12...but other then that I don't know....Can someone enlighten me??

“It was interesting for me to learn Ryan has never had a public job.”

Well technically it was a public / private job

Ryan as a some time driver of the famed WeinerMobile

I see an advert in the future:

TRUMPS

Someone send this to Nehlen....thanks in advance.

Since Ryan is not a member o either body, he will be unable to comply with your suggestion.

Sorry, Congress. I was thinking Cruz re the Senate. Also, isn’t Ryan connected with the RNC?

Also, isn’t Ryan connected with the RNC? Connected? Yeah, I suppose so -- in the sense that any elected Republican official is "connected" with the RNC.

But he's not a member of the RNC -- so he can't resign from it.

Don't sugar coat it, tell it straight.

One thing I always liked about this site is the live-and-let-live attitude, especially when rivals are on the same fundamental side.

Trump already responded to his egotistical treachery by commenting that such actions have consequences....would be an interesting conversation to eavesdrop in on...
