So you are suggesting that Democrats-as-Republicans are responsible for Ryan as speaker, effectively making him a stooge? Otherwise, true Republicans might have voted for someone more aligned with the Republican agenda?

That would still be a reason to blame him, even if only for not recognizing being used and stepping aside.

The truth is there are more Democrats in R jerseys than there are conservatives.
Ryan is one of them, that’s why they made him Speaker.

Boehner stepped down because he was in an untenable position. Nobody else wanted the job. Ryan took it because his aspirations for higher office went down in flames in 2012.
