Paul Ryan On Stopping Trump's Muslim Ban: We'll Sue Him!

TalkingPointsMemo ^ | 6/17/2016 | Tierney Sneed

Here's what you and many others don't understand, because you haven't taken the time to understand the WI 1st CD.

Racine and Waukesha counties are chock-full of CONSERVATIVE VOTERS. Remember the "lost ballots" in 2014, that's where they came from. This is where the conservative Republicans who work in the Milwaukee area prefer to live, outside the horrible Milwaukee school district. So yes, they love Ryan just like they LOVED Ted Cruz! (61% Cruz to 21% Trump in Waukesha, 51-32 in Racine, 48-34 in Walworth). These are the people who are keeping Paul Ryan in office. You want him out, talk to the conservatives in CD1!

“I would sue any president that exceeds his or her powers,” Ryan said

HA!

[rbg81]

No way I am voting for Ryan—ever.

[Buckeye McFrog]

Amen. I’d rather have a Dem Congress with Trump in the WH as he won’t hesitate to use the veto pen. And he’d negotiate until their buttocks were bleeding.

Give it back to the GOPe and get more of the same treachery.
At this point firing the RINOs is the more important task.

[faithhopecharity]

traitor. Just one more enemy within

[boycott]

“I would sue any president that exceeds his or her powers.”

—

Yet this stupid bastard does nothing to stop the stupid bastard in the White House.

The repubs need to choose another speaker.

[dragonblustar]

Ryan is an Obama shill . Shame on Wisconsin if they give him another term.

[ArcadeQuarters]

“I would sue any president that exceeds his or her powers,”

*hack* *cough* *sputter* WHAT?! He’s finally going to stand up to Obama?!

[Starboard]

Exactly! Never once.

[Freedom56v2]

Not sure about his 800 number, but if you try to call him on regular line, you cannot talk to staff...you can only leave a comment and his voicemail box is full. Sheesh like he really cares to hear from constituents.

Nehlen for Congress!!!

[exit82]

Ryan needs to lose his primary on August 9th.

The we don’t need to listen to this Lilliputian anymore.

[Cboldt]

Bringing suit is not an exercise of an Article I (Congress) power. It is submitting to the judgment of an Article III (court) power.

I do prefer, if he's contra-Trump, that Ryan do so openly and early. Better to get this out of the way before mid-October.

As for the party, it is a vessel holding some people. The vessel is okay, some of the people are okay. It's like any company that way. Might be beyond repair, too early to tell. Without Trump, it is garbage. I won;t vote for the Republicans floated in my state (Maine), and in fact, expend effort to have them defeated.

[reed13k]

Yet he didn’t lift a finger against the current POS in office!

[lodi90]

The real problem here is Ryan CONSTANTLY stirring the pot and green lighting the continued fragging of Trump. I saw Trump’s speech last night. It was conciliatory toward Cruz and others. And Ryan responds with a straight up FU.

It couldn’t be more clear now that the GOP prefers the Butcher of Benghazi to Trump. Put that fact in your pipe and smoke it.

[Flick Lives]

Ryan’s puppet master’s are pulling his strings....he owned.

Wouldn't surprise me if Hillary's campaign cut him a check. If they did, at least his blathering would be explainable. What would be truly despicable is if he's throwing out these criticisms for free.

He didn't win in 2012
He didn't even win his own state.
All we ask is that he STFU. That's it. It's not hard. But, he can't even do that.

What a despicable bastard. I think I actually have more respect for Hillary than this slime ball.

[Doogle]

Ryan stood with his thumb up his azz while Odungo ran roughshod over the US Citizens and Constitution

FUPR gutless POS!

[NorthMountain]

“I would sue any president that exceeds his or her powers,”

Bullspit. If that were true, he'd be filing a new lawsuit every day, at least once a day, against 0b0la ...

[KentTrappedInLiberalSeattle]

Where’s he been for the past 8 years?

Crouched underneath the desk in the Oval Office, keeping Obama... company.

[Cboldt]

They did sue Obama for failure to "take care" the laws are followed. That suit has percolated up to SCOTUS.

[miss marmelstein]

They delete the messages. He knows what average Americans think. But his pockets are bulging with muslim cash. Our entire government is like Ian Schrager’s trash bins of cash stashed in the basement of the old Studio 54.
