House Speaker Paul Ryan said Thursday that Greg Gianforte, the GOP House candidate charged with assaulting a reporter, should apologize but added that it is now up to voters in Montana to choose whether they want him as their representative in Congress.

"There's never a call for physical altercations," Ryan told reporters during his weekly press conference. "That is wrong and it should not have happened."

Apologies for what seems like self defense? Ryan is really not a friend of the Rule of law is he?

DJT, as the titular head of the GOP, needs to stop legitimizing Eddie Haskell.

Since when is Gianforte in the Democrat party?

Where’s the apology from the Left? A Congressman in TN was targeted and nearly run off the road.

The concept of the presumption of innocence is one of the most basic in our system of justice.

If Gianforte gets on TV now, and tells Paul Ryan to STFU, that should be good for another 25,000 votes!

Or any liberal, for that matter. Only Republicans grovel and apologize. Liberals do and say the most outrageous things and never look back.

I considered moving to Montana so I could vote for him, but it's cheaper to donate to his campaign. Not that I would mind moving to Montana . . .

Greg for Montana

Back in the day congressmen packed heat. In the capital, on commercial planes, just about everywhere.

How do I know? A retired WH staffer told me. He told told me lots of things.

Dear God, this guy is so mind blowing stupid!

Calling Paul Ryan stupid is an insult to Forest Gump.

Gump was stupid but Ryan isn't nearly that smart.
