Paul Nehlen: ‘Paul Ryan’s Elitism is Showing,’ ‘Disdain for the American Electorate Is Breathtaking’
breitbart.com ^ | 5/6/16 | Dan Riehl

Posted on 05/06/2016 2:02:12 PM PDT by cotton1706

Asked about what Politico reported as Paul Ryan “ditching” presumptive GOP nominee Donald Trump, “It was stunning,” Ryan’s primary challenger Paul Nehlen told Breitbart News Daily SiriusXM host Stephen K. Bannon.

“I couldn’t believe it,” continued Nehlen. “I don’t know where you get off…” pausing to read from, then direct listeners to a new Nehlen campaign press release on the subject, “Paul Ryan’s elitism is showing. He’s apparently decided that the American electoral process of a representative republic isn’t good enough. His disdain and disrespect for the American electorate is breathtaking.”

The release continues:

“It doesn’t matter whether Speaker Ryan approves of candidate Trump or not,” noted Nehlen. “It doesn’t matter whether any congressional leader approves of him. It matters even less if RNC leadership approves of him—including Paul Ryan. The fact is, the American people have spoken in state after state after state. They’ve made their choice. It is petulant, arrogant, disrespectful—and in many senses dangerous—to our representative system of government to tell people across this nation who took the time to cast a vote, ‘Sorry, I’m not cool with your choice.’ It is for the people to decide who they want to lead, not for one man or a cabal of party elites.”

I did today too.

Then I heard him on Howie Carr.

Obviously the endorsement issue came up and Howie served up the biggest softball ever. Nehlen "demurred".

Howie even interrupted him and said that "I'm giving you the biggest softball ever here".

ugh. He finally stated that he endorses Trump.

He needs to work on his presentation and his chutzpah.

We'll see how it goes, I guess.

Paul Ryan is as much a player as Jeb Bush. Nobody gives a crap what you think, Paulie Walnuts.

I hear now that Bush said he was going to stay home. Doesn’t intend to support Trump so he won’t vote. Bush signed the “I will support the candidate” pledge Guess he is not a man of his word.

"..arrogant, disrespectful—and in many senses dangerous—to our representative system of government to tell people 

it's beautiful when people outside the Establishment use the Establishments own code words against them.
