Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) spent part of his tour of the U.S-Mexico border on Wednesday with Border Patrol officials on horseback.

Video surfaced Wednesday afternoon showing Ryan riding a horse during his visit to the southwestern border; the Speaker did not appear to be wearing a riding helmet.

Looks like his horse had other ideas in the first few seconds of the video.

Who wears a helmet when riding a horse? Cowboy hat would have been more appropriate but stupid looking on Ryan. And why even include this fact with the information?

Why? I rode horseback every weekend for 5 years. Horses are some of the sanest people I know.
