Just like an incompetent NY Slimes writer to get everything wrong.

Paul Ryan’s “Republican Orthodoxy”:

“Yum, yum. Pork!”

So, how will President Trump persuade Ryan to assist rather than hinder his policies? Or can he persuade Ryan?

New Speaker?

We don’t want “unity,” we want victory for freedom and limited constitutional government.

The republicans, AND their democrats have every reason to panic about Trump.

Uh, let’s see, Paul Ryan or Donald Trump?

Don’t think many have to think too hard to pick Trump.

Good, hope it is one huge collision and Ryan is on the ground. Ryan is a foul ball.

That is an excellent summary!

Trump has picked all the right issues, things we as Americans care the most about.

We’ve had it with the GOP and it’s puffery that turns into broken promises as soon as even the tea party people hit DC.

None of the other candidates will do any better. Trump will Triumph!
