Former President Trump put out a statement Friday in response to former Speaker of the House Paul Ryan‘s speech Thursday night. In the statement, Trump accused Ryan of being a Republican in name only.
Trump scoffed Ryan’s advice for conservatives to win elections, saying he “was the single biggest fact, other than Romney himself, for the monumental Romney/Ryan loss in the Presidential race of 2012.” Meanwhile, “I got more votes by far,” Trump wrote, “75M than any other sitting president in history!”
“Interestingly, I was in the Great State of Wisconsin when they booed him off the stage,” Trump went on. “I literally had to come to his rescue.”
Yesterday, Ryan tried to lead the GOP away from “populist appeal of one personality” or else “we’re not going anywhere.” But Trump disagreed. “Ryan should instead be telling them how to stop the cheating of elections and that we would have won if Republican leadership fought the way the Democrats did.”
Now, “Ryan has been a curse to the Republican party,” Trump said. He even went as far to say that Ryan’s involvement on the board of Fox News has lead to “millions of its great supporters fleeing for good.”
Finally, Trump echoed Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL). “As a Republican, having Ryan on your side almost guarantees a loss for both you, the Party, and America itself!” Trump said.

Luv it.
Ryan is trying to align the party with the money. Trump is trying to align the party with the voters.
Ryan is selling the party. Trump is enlarging the party.
RINO trying to take the party away from the “cult of personality” Trump supported by 70 M voters and return it to the anonymous cabal of RINOs who are supported by no one except the beneficiaries of their feckless corruption.
Ryan decrying Trump as a “cult of personality” is like Hitler decrying Churchill as a cult of personality. It just reminds us of why and how much we despise the cult of opportunity that Ryan represents along with his leftist comrades in arms.
It’s like calling Grant or Patton a cult of personality.
Color Ryan gone
My guess is that people like Ryan know the real truth behind Trump’s support, but they would rather earn the praise of the Beltway establishment than stand up for the people. Ironically, they are trying to cultivate their own personality profile, with a certain group of elites. They don’t truly believe in conservatism, they just want people to believe they are conservatives.
The Republicans lose because for the most part they play by the rules while the Democrats do not.
The Republicans have a bunch a beta cucks that want to be loved by the media more than their voters.
Many Republicans are too chicken $hit of the State Run media.
Paul Ryan is the poster child of Republican sell out. This is why he tries to overcome the, “what a p*ssy” , optics with his workout photos. What real man does that? It’s pathetic.

Lol Cuomo does th3 same thing.
Thank goodness we have Marjorie Taylor green on our side right now, and DeSantis -MGT has more backbone than most Republicans in office right now
Because that’s where the money is and how else can they enrich themselves...
It took more people than that to setup his speaking area and lights.
No one cares what Paul Ryan thinks or says, except Paul Ryan. Why pay any attention to a political saboteur who blathered on and on about abolishing Obama Care, and then undermines his own initiatives just to spite Trump and the people who voted for him. Truly a worthless individual.
Ouch! Ryan is such a lightweight wuss.
Ryan and the rest of the Bush League Republicans have been pursuing an agenda that is the opposite of MAGA for 30 years.
They do not want to Make America Great Again, they want to Make America North Mexico.
Open borders/amnesty to flood the country with fraudulently documented foreigners to dilute the votes of citizens to steal the country from the citizens.
Can’t get to the New World Order with US and our sovereignty in the way.
Ryan, who squandered so many GOP opportunities when he had a chance.
Most of the audience are older women.
“He’s such a handsome young man”
He's like a dog that doesn't recognize a wolf in sheep's clothing.
So a a Prominent Republican was endorsing Prominent Republicans at the time to help the party and that was a problem?
Was waiting for the return fire.
Funny how the squishes don’t get that.
Any dirtclod they lob will be met with a massive 10X response from Camp Trump.
