Former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin announced on Sunday she will work to defeat Paul Ryan in his Republican primary.
This came after Ryan would not endorse the Republican nominee Donald Trump for president. On Thursday Republican Speaker Paul Ryan told Jake Tapper on CNN he was not ready to endorse Donald Trump yet.
Donald Trump won the GOP nomination on Tuesday after his landslide victory in Indiana.
Palin told Jake Tapper she believes Ryan will soon be Cantored.

CNN reported:
Sarah Palin will work to defeat House Speaker Paul Ryan by backing his primary opponent in Wisconsin, the former Alaska governor told CNNs Jake Tapper.
Palin said in an interview that airs Sunday on State of the Union that her decision was sparked by Ryans bombshell announcement to Tapper last week that he wasnt yet ready to support Donald Trump, the Republican presumptive nominee. Palin endorsed Trump back in January.
I think Paul Ryan is soon to be Cantored, as in Eric Cantor, Palin said, referring to the former Republican House majority leader who was ousted in a shocking upset in 2014 when challenger Dave Brat ran to his right in a Virginia primary.
His political career is over but for a miracle because he has so disrespected the will of the people, and as the leader of the GOP, the convention, certainly he is to remain neutral, and for him to already come out and say who he will not support is not a wise decision of his, Palin continued.
It will be interesting to see who the Cruz supporters will endorse in this race.
Go Sarah!
Good! #DumpRyan
Trump is behind this and one step ahead.
Puts him in a stronger position.
He may even fund Ryan’s dem oponent
Good.
RYAN (and his partners ROMNEY and SOROS) must go.
They have globalist goals:
OPEN BORDERS, OBAMATRADE, ROMNEYCARE.
AND THEY LIE like running water.
I love Sarah, but I fear she is doing Donald no good.
She’s done.
The sorry Libs have ruined her- made a laughing stock of her- and her family’s antics have not helped either.
She has taken a lower profile in the trump,campaign which I think was due to her husband’s accident and - as you state - the fact that every time she tries to rise her selfish self absorbed twit of a daughter drags down the family name
She making a big move here to go rogue against Ryan
Could elevate her if she is successful or finish her for good if Ryan pulls it out
At least the “ party” now has another cause besides sabotaging Trump
Can Nehlen get Trump to go in and campaign for him? That one primary in one district would set these no Trump buttwipes in place - boom!
Doubtful - especially since his Primary opponent is running as a republican and is looking good to beat him.....
Ryan has been trying to get run out of town for a long time, probably since before he became speaker. He just hadn't blipped the radar screen yet.
This was just the last straw.
One step at a time. Lets primary Ryan's butt first. A Dem is too drastic.
I don’t think it helps donald to go openly against Ryan
Remember when he gets elected he will have only 60 days to get congress behind a new agreement to fund the government! Current debt suspension ends March 2017- big time crisis awaiting the next POTUS
so Trump needs a good working relationship,with the House Speaker whoever it may be
Trump made his point about Ryan, now Ryans race is his to win or lose
Trump has MUCH bigger fish to fry
Senator Jeff Sessions said that Ryan made a big mistake in not endorsing Trump. Ryan over estimated his importance.
Perfect role for Sarah. She can make the difference in that race.
It was interesting for me to learn Ryan has never had a public job. Bought and paid for by special interests. Wonder what his financial holdings are now compared to when he entered office?
Better than good. Absolutely brilliant. It forces EVERY ONE of those backstabbers in the so-called Freedom Caucus to back away from Ryan. Perhaps others will have to worry about really disgusted voters Cantorizing them.
“He may even fund Ryans dem opponent”
Since I am well past these two political criminal organizations, I have to agree. If Nehlen cannot pull it off, maybe we send money to one of his opponents in the general.
Remember, A B R.
She is the most trusted person in the Conservative movement. Her endorsement is gold and Ryan knows it.
Pray America wakes
That is your opinion, but mine is you are wrong.
NO HE DOESN'T. Remember when we were sold the false meme that Ryan was the budget genious who would demand a balanced, responsible budget? He caved on EVERY issue Obama wanted, even stuff like Common Core, which is despised across the political spectrum. He was handed a wonderfully conservative HOR (BIG MISTAKE) that had succeeded in ousting Boehner. He is the globalist lapdog in the HOR, doing the dirty work for Romney, the Bushes, and the global elite.
Right now, Ryan is the weakest link, with a primary opponent who can destroy his career. I say GO FOR IT!! and get the HOR Reps who got elected as Constitutional Conservatives back in line. Put the fear of God (or Palin voters) in them.
