I proposed earlier in the thread that he did it to position for a run for President in 2024.
Speaker of the House is not a good position for this.
He will pocket a lot of money in the next few years, and (in his mind) enter the 2024 primaries with a full head of steam.
Unfortunately for Ryan, the REAL Republican Party, the party of Donald Trump, WILL NEVER FORGET HIS DUPLICITY ... or his stupid "Better Way" BS that interfered with the President's agenda ... or his blocking the subpoena powers of R.-run committees ... his shining on the POTUS about the Wall and even Obamacare ... his smarmy behavior to the President's tweets etc.
It is possible he is thinking about 2020; but I'm guessing he is fully focused on 2024.
He is quite delusional in all this of course ... except the part about making a LOT of money the next few years. (Just look at how Clintons raked it in when "Between" offices.
Could be, could be. Perhaps he was conned. Certain vague promises made. People don’t relinquish that kind of power readily. My thought had been it had to do with public revelations about the slush fund they had for paying of sex claims.
Re: Ryan running in 2024
I won’t forget his dirty dealings; nor Romney’s; nor Rubio’s; nor any of those dirty rotten traitors to the Republican party - and my country.
