No substance and therefore pointless.

That says everything except “I’m supporting Trump”.

Bloviating, equivocating B.S.

Nothing Earth-shattering there. I expect Ryan’s endorsement to come within a week or two... after California at the absolute latest. As people realize the choice is Trump or PC leftists, they’ll come around.

Reince Priebus @Reince

The meeting was great. It was a very positive step toward party unity.

That’s exactly the kind of statement I expected...no matter what differences remain, priority one is defeating ANY democrat in the fall! Period.

The final part of “we are extremely proud of the new voters” means that Trump won when they got together.

Well at least Speaker Ryan will not become contentious.

Trump = wall on the border.
Ryan = wall of words.

The enemy of my enemy is my ally.

This is just a joint declaration of war.

I hope Trump slapped him upside the head at some point in the meeting.

if you actually read the words, they say there is commitment to working together

Agree. This seems to be a nice way for Ryan and the non-neverTrumpers in the GOP to move to support Trump in a “face saving” manner.

Priebus probably talked to them beforehand and laid out how much $$$ Trump is probably going to be able to deliver to the RNC.

Settle down folks, Ryan knows the only leverage he has against Trump is this endorsement, you can’t blame him for trying to see what he can get for it.

Let them do their little dance, Ryan will get what he can and what Trump is willing to give for it, and life will move on.

Invented drama for the press, little more.

I agree. I think Trump will be a fundraising dynamo.
