Walker, Ryan and U.S. Sen. Ron Johnson are all taking a pass on appearing with Trump on Friday. Walker will be viewing flood damage in northern Wisconsin. Ryan plans to be in the southern...

Not good.


No worries. I’ll be “skipping” the GOP down ticket in November. Turn about is fair play after all.

Good. That way Trump can go straight to the people of Wisconsin and not have to worry about this pack of RINO’s getting in the way.

Trump should tell all of the hunters in Wisconsin that it’s open season on RINOs, no bag limit.

The pusilanimous Vichy GOPe collaborators are conveniently self-identifying. Remember them when retribution time comes.

For Ryan, that’s next week.

Why do you think for a second that democrats are not voting for Ryan?

And I’m sick of hearing republicans tell me the disaster Ryan is a “conservative”.

Let me just remind folks that Wisonsin is one of the states Trump is counting on winning.


Let me just remind you that the GOP is counting on millions of Trump supporters voting for their candidates down ballot. At this point I see no reason for Trumpers to vote GOP down ticket. If the GOP wants Trumpers support they need to support Trump.

Not good.

No, but considering how poorly Trump did in Wisconsin in the primary it's not surprising. Johnson is in the middle of what will probably be a losing race. Ryan and Trump are on the outs. The only one you would reasonably expect to be there would be Walker.

Ryan has done more to damage Trump and the republican party than anyone. These people are weak and disgraceful. I’m convinced now the GOP has to be done away with and replaced.

Face it they want Hillary elected. They have betrayed every one of us and given America a mortal wound.


Paul Ryan’s “pinned” tweet FIVE DAYS IN A ROW on twitter is an attack on Trump. Not Clinton. That’s all you need to know about which team he plays for.

“Not good.”

If you mean “Not good for the GOPe, open borders, low wage express trio of turds,” then yeah.

Vote Trump 2016

Let’s face it we have been done in by republican treason.

Take your hand-wringing defeatism elsewhere.

Jeez! Trump hits a rough spot, the Media doubles down on their character assassination of Trump, and weak-kneed supporters start throwing in the towel, over 3 months before the election.

Get a grip. The sky is only falling in your fearful little bubble!

If you can't handle a little adversity, then you'll be a puddle of quivering jello by election day. That's the only poll that really matters.

You know the Media & Establishment (but I repeat myself) are scum sucking dogs, and what do you do? Yo grant them bogus power! Shameful.

Vote Trump!

Trump should be walking away with WI... I guarantee he’s got as much chance there as MN.

Aren’t these anti-Trump “republicans” truly disgusting? I only hope they experience great “butt-hurt” over the next several months. What ever happened to being loyal to your party’s nominee? What pin-headed degenerates.

Walker and Ryan are negatives at this point. Ryan may be gone after next week.

Not good for whom? The last time the Reps won WI in the Presidential race was 1988. In 2012, with Ryan on the ticket, Obama won 54% to 45%. Walker, Johnson,and Ryan are showing their true colors.

Maybe Nehlen should appear with Trump or at least be in the audience.

This is no time to have a civil war in the Party, and that is precisely what is happening.

He doesn't have a great chance in either. Wisconsin hasn't gone for the Republican since Reagan.

Ryan knows he would be booed at a Trump rally, and rightly so.
