Ryan demands Trump reverse positions on border security, trade, bringing jobs back to U,S, and temporarily restricting bringing middle eastern Muslims into the U.S.

Trump says no.

[Tau Food]

Trump should and will make his own decisions about what positions he decides to take. He’s already modified his positions on taxes and the minimum wage. it really doesn’t matter what Ryan wants. It is Trump who will be facing voters in November and, win or lose, he needs to be comfortable with his proposals.

[Yashcheritsiy]

So Paul Ryan basically wanted Trump to change every position of his that actually distinguished him from mainstream Republicans, and which were why he won in the first place?

Paul Ryan does not seem like a very smart man.

Trump has a platform?

[dragonblustar]

Ryan needs a healthy dose of this!

[Snowybear]

All Trump has to do is explain his positions in that meeting next week, which of course are quite conservative. That should be it. He should bring Manafort with him to remind Ryan how much he has to lose if he doesn’t back Trump.

Hyperbolic articles with misleading headlines aside, it will be interesting to see to what extent the Platform Committee and the convention delegates will defer to Trump on major platform issues. Obviously the parties generally want their platforms and presidential candidates to be generally compatible. But the platform represents the entire party, and its candidates at all levels. It is not just a vanity publication for the presidential nominee. Trump is at serious odds with Republican sentiment on quite a number of questions.

Nowhere in the article is Ryan quoted as the reasons listed as the reason he has not endorsed Trump...

My guess is the article is complete BS basically the author is taking liberties with the reporter question..

I think Ryan wants to set some ground rules with Trump on the process forward to get the RNC and Trump on the same page before the Speaker of the House does an endorsement...

Anybody really think Ryan would start making demands via the media when he could make a phone call...?

Ryan demands that Trump start acting like a conservative, support true conservative positions, and stop backsliding into supporting a leftist agenda now that he’s in the general election.

Are you seeing what I’m seeing?

Is considering a $15 minimum wage what you had in mind when you voted for Deceptive Donnie?

How about supporting the transgender agenda?

Is there any liberal position that he supports that won’t make you think you picked the wrong guy?

How far does he have to go to the left, before you will consider abandoning him?

[trebb]

Ironic - the Speaker, who has betrayed the People so many ways and caused the fractures, wants Trump to take his trash out for him - his really stinking trash.

He got a big head when he demanded concessions before he would "accept" the job and thinks Trump is a patsy too - might as well have just come out and endorsed Hillary.

Ryan needs to go.

[Parley Baer]

This is very good news. Trump is sticking to his guns. GO TRUMP GO

Let’s keep those postcards flowing... to Paul Ryan (and our local reps and senators)... Every Monday until Ryan and all the others are “ready” to support Trump.

It’s not over until Trump is actually the Republican nominee, not just the “presumptive” nominee. Everyone stay focused, and keep voting Trump in the remaining primaries. Keep focused until February 2017.

Postcards to:

This is what I’m writing on my postcards:

Support Trump2016
- or we vote DEMOCRAT down-ballot in November!
#MAGA

[Iscool]

What’s wrong with these idiots??? They’re the reason Trump got into the race...To knock ‘em out, not to embrace and unite with them...

Problem is: they still control the Party...We have to take the control away from them...

Ryan made a JV mistake - could end his career.
