Politico ^ | 5/6/2016 | Nolan D. McCaskill

When House Speaker Paul Ryan said Thursday he wasn’t ready to support Donald Trump, the presumptive nominee of the Republican Party, his Wisconsin primary opponent saw an opening.

Following the Trump campaign’s lash-out on Friday, Paul Nehlen seized that opening, suggesting he will do what Ryan won't: support Trump.

This is a Ryan pattern, say something dumb and then have to backtrack. I predict he backs off before he meets Trump.

Otherwise Ryan will find out about Trump in a meeting.

Meanwhile get ready to send Ryan’s primary opponent a political contribution.

Romney ought to fade into obscurity and take his first bright idea Ryan with him.

Excellent. I hope all the Trumpsters in Ryan's district put two signs in their front yards:

What’s the polling for this race?

It's a congressional district. There is no polling other than maybe some early internal polling. Frankly, I think he's a long shot (lived just north of Janesville for a while, and am well familiar with the locals). Worth the effort, though.

Newt said

“[I]n the case of Paul Ryan he made a big mistake today and he needs to understand this,” Gingrich said. “He is the Speaker of the House. He has an obligation to unify the party. He has an obligation to reach out. Obviously he and Donald Trump are going to have disagreements. Some of them will work out and some of them they won’t. That’s fine. Our constitution provides that speakers and presidents can fight, but I think he sends the wrong signal and a signal which I think endangers the House Republicans and endangers the Senate Republicans.”

Newt is right

See Ryan represents the interest of Multi National Corps. They want jobs shipped overseas, whether its Indian IT tech support, or banking call centers instead of Americans, or moving whole factories abroad, they bribe Ryan, and Poof out people lose jobs they had for decades. In many cases they are 2nd generation employees of the same company.

Multinational get H1b visas even though we have lots of long term unemployed STEM workers.

See its all about the Cheap Labor express. Our politicians sold us out, and now they complain the the people got wise to this bribery and are voting for Mr. Trump.

Our workers were sold out by Judas Pols who have no economic nationalism, they have no regard for people losing their homes to foreclosure, having to go on welfare, and unemployment.

Since its the same all over the country, relocating does not get you a job because things are bad everywhere.

Romney ought to fade into obscurity

He already did that...right after election day 2012. Wasn't all that much prior, either.
