As it should be, especially in the context of Trump saying "I'm just the messenger," and then attaching his right to assert his position, to the will of the voters. If the voters want to leave Ryan in, Trump is okay with that.
Meanwhile, Palin is openly supporting Nehlen's campaign.
Good analysis!
well...he really is a Dimocrat in disguise
Yes I would bet money that Palin and Trump got together before she went on with Jake Tapper. Its widely speculated Trump is looking at Palin for Energy Sec.
Nor should he.
But,
If Mr. Trump shows any weakness towards the GOPers he loses.
I saw a Romney/Ryan sticker on a truck yesterday. And the sticker didn't look like it had been on there for 4 years. Couldn't see the driver, but I don't think it was W - didn't notice any Secret Service types.
Actually if Ryan is still a problem after the meetings later this week, then he should be removed as Convention Chair
It seems that Ryan, like most of the GOPe elite are so insular, that they don’t see what is going on around them. BTW. Good for Sarah P.
It might begin to get their attention.
My dad used to talk about taking a two by four to a recalcitrant mule just to “get his attention.”
(He never DID it, you understand!)
Haha! When I was a kid preachers *loved* that saying about mules and two by fours. They liked to suggest it was that hard to get a congregation’s attention.
Or maybe the preaching was just uninspired?
:)
What would be beautiful is if Trump started a superpac that would be directed with getting him a more cooperative Congress to work with. A superpac that would take out the likes of Ryan and other Rinos. That would throw the fear of God into them and also use their own weapon, the superpac, against them.

Face-saving is the operative description—for both sides. The fact tht Trump is going to Ryan is a concession in and of itself. Trump has more leverage and he already using it given his comments today.
If Trump unseats Ryan as speaker this will be a true testament to his rising power.
When you are in a dog fight, you need to fight like a dog. Or else the other dog will kill you! This fight needs to be won. We have no time for pansy politics. The American people voting for a prize fighter. So you need to either join the fight or get out of the way.

Very well said or as Trump would say if you send me into a pack of wolves, I’ll come out the leader of the pack.
I love that Palin has denounced the worthless little weasel.

You have to believe they pow wowed first. :-)
