At San Antonio Fundraiser, Trump Mocks Paul Ryan
texas tribune ^ | 10/11/2016 | Patrick Svitek

Earlier in his remarks, Trump said occasionally "our own party gets in the way" of his campaign. "Sometimes it's harder to beat our own party than it is to beat the person on the other side," Trump told donors.

Trump previewed that message earlier Tuesday on Twitter, railing against Ryan as a "very weak and ineffective leader." Trump kept up the criticism at the fundraiser, suggesting Ryan should focus more on budget issues than criticizing the GOP nominee — and even reaching back to Ryan's time as Republican Mitt Romney's running mate in the 2012 presidential race.

"This guy lost four years ago," Trump said, "in like a landslide."

The Republican party is in free fall and it is their own damn fault. If I weren’t on the ballot for November I would leave and that’s no lie.

Fundraiser.

Politicians raise money for themselves, and they raise money for other politicians.

Hillary doesn’t attend fundraisers in California because she thinks she’ll need a few extra votes there!

Even if Trump wins, these self righteous establishment brats are not going support him. Why vote for them? The republicans had control of the House and did absolutely nothing except run up the debt and play games.

Actually, Ryan and Romney lost by 3.9%

However, in the Vice Presidential Debate, most observers felt that clueless Joe Biden beat Paul Ryan, which is roughly the same thing as losing in “a landslide.”

For some perverse reason, in the arena of politics the utterances of losers are taken seriously.

Fk Ryan.

After this election, I am done.

In the next election, they need a whole new party.
