Paul Ryan almost single-handedly derailed Trump’s campaign. During the Trump campaign’s darkest hour Paul Ryan sought to inflict further damage. He chose poorly. There are consequences.

Loyalty is the one thing Trump insists on.

Ryan has shown the opposite.

I agree, he needs to be flushed quick-time!

We not forget the backstabbing. However, while I know all of us feel some forms of vengeance in our hearts today, it is not ours to carry out and the downside is great. It is a safe bet that despite our legitimate anger with Ryan (I was beside myself over his behavior) that both Pence and Priebus will not allowed him to be jettisoned.

With that said, if you just watched his statement, but more importantly heard his answers to media questions, Ryan hit the notes I wanted to hear even as I glared at him. He is after all a politician and the tea leaves are easy to read this morning.

This election for me was about the survival of our nation and getting ourselves back on a path to prosperity and freedom. This was an election about the America we would leave for my children. My prayers were answered. The transition now becomes about implementing the agenda as quickly as possible when he is sworn in.

Ryan is no longer the most powerful Republican, but he will remain the second most powerful in what is now (unbelievably) a one-party government. It really surprised me that Hannity said that last night. Perhaps he knows something that Paul Ryan does not, but I find that hard to believe given Ryan’s close friendship and relationship with Priebus and Pence.

My best guess is that Trump has no intention of moving against Ryan. Trump does not appear to keep grudges and we have heard many people say that. In fact, he said in his book that it’s “bad business” to keep grudges.

With that said, as if we have a choice, we should simply sit back and watch our guy go to work. We should watch Ryan go to work as he pledged to do. We have to watch McConnell (damn that pains me) go to work as he has pledged to do. We should watch them with a wary eye and be prepared to push them if they need it, but you can bet that they got the message loud and clear last night.

Yup, and there are those here who haven’t a clue about scum bag Ryan.

If Trump hadn’t won by razor thin margins in PA and MI, a loss in Wisconsin would have cost Trump the Presidency. Ryan worked hard to make that happen, intentionally or otherwise. He failed but that shouldn’t give him a pass.

NEVER to be trusted. Show him the left foot of fellowship.
