Trump Escalates War of Words With Ryan: Hints at Forcing Speaker Out If He Wins Election

Donald Trump has escalated his bitter battle with the Republican party by launching fresh attacks on the leadership and saying he 'doesn't want their support'. Trump also took his personal war of words with Speaker Paul Ryan to another level during an interview Tuesday night. 'The fact is, I think we should get support and we don’t get the support from guys like Paul Ryan,' the Republican nominee said. Donald Trump has escalated his bitter battle with the Republican party by launching fresh attacks on the leadership and saying he 'doesn't want their support'

'I’m just tired of nonsupport and I don’t really want his support. This happens all the time – if you sneeze he calls up and announces isn’t that a terrible thing. 'So look, I don’t want his support, I don’t care about his support.'

When asked by host Bill O'Reilly about potentially needing the support of Ryan after the election, Trump dropped a hint that he will push to change the party leadership. 'I would think that Ryan maybe wouldn’t be there, maybe he’ll be in a different position,' Trump said.

It comes after Trump attacked Speaker Ryan in a trademark Twitter rant on Tuesday morning. Trump blasted Ryan for for providing 'zero support' for his campaign – then hinted there was much more to come.

It is so nice that the shackles have been taken off me and I can now fight for America the way I want to,' Trump tweeted late Tuesday morning. He started the barrage against Ryan with an early morning tweet. 'Our very weak and ineffective leader, Paul Ryan, had a bad conference call where his members went wild at his disloyalty,' the GOP presidential candidate tweeted Tuesday, the day after Ryan distanced himself from Trump on a GOP conference call.

Ryan should lose his speakership, and his seat on all committees

Pauly RINO only has loyalty to the Cheap Labor Express.
That’s who has made him a millionaire.
You didn’t think he got that way being a Congressman, did you?

I was ten years old when Goldwater ran against Johnson. Goldwater was one of the finest men that ever ran for office, honest, principled, and loved America.
Against him were both the fascist democrats and the “Rockefeller” republicans. Unprincipled men of money that were only in it to enrich themselves and attain “power”.
History repeats itself.
I pray that Trump wins that we can get the scum out of Washington, both rats and republicans.

If Trump wins he could probably shift a lot of votes for Speaker in the new congress. He does not need Ryan controlling things in the House.

I sometimes envision the outcome of the Republican primaries with the following speech (Trump as Don Corleone):

All right, now I have to make arrangements to bring him back here safely cleared of all these false charges. But I'm a superstitious man, and if some unlucky accident should befall him... if he should be shot in the head by a police officer, or if he should hang himself in his jail cell, or if he's struck by a bolt of lightning, then I'm going to blame some of the people in this room, and that I do not forgive. But, that aside, let me say that I swear, on the souls of my grandchildren, that I will not be the one to break the peace we have made here today.

I consider the timing of the release of the tapes and Ryan's reaction afterwards to be the equivalent of a lightning strike.

Ryan is a worm, but Trump’s attention needs to be on Hillary.

Ryan may be minority leader after the bs be pulled. At any rate, Trump only needs about 25-30 Republicans to withhold support for Ryan and he’s finished.
