I only unify with those who want to return us to the land of the free; the home of the brave.

All others can go climb a tree.

“you can’t blame him for trying to see what he can get for it”

That’s the problem with politicians, they’re always working the angles to see what’s in it for them.

Ryan needs Trump far more than Trump needs Ryan.

Ryan has a primary challenger. No matter how remote a chance he would lose to a challenger, Trump holds the winning hand.

Ryan has become the face of the anti-Trump movement. The time to celebrate will be when Ryan endorses Trump.

That will happen. For now Ryan needed to zip it and stop the disunity talk.

What is it that is so freeping difficult for people to understand about Ryan’s concerns? If he had come out singing Trump’s praises, y’all would be screaming about how quickly he got over his supposed concerns and that the whole thing was political theater.

If Trump is a good negotiator, he can win over Ryan. Give him time to do that. Sit back and let him demonstrate his skills.

Maintain the suspense. Will he or won’t he?

Tune in to the next news release, to find out.

Free earned media. Oh, the drama.

Ryan is still be a whiny traitor. He’s saying it takes more than 25 mins, no, Paul, it doesn’t. Get behind the Republican nominee, your personal ideology is irrelevant.

Here’s what we know - most Americans feel we’re on the WRONG TRACK... also Trump received MORE votes than any other Republican in history...

That should be a hint about the direction we should take...

Trump shows intelligence and judgment by not escalating the media inspired disagreement. Ryan is allowed to both back down and also save face. Ryan supports the first priority of defeating Hillary Clinton. They should be able to work together in the future. The Romney, Kristol, Lindsey Graham, Clinton alliance lost.

Exactly.

Ryan weakened his stock and Trump let him.

A future endorsement will be purchased for far less than today.

The rank and file will simply walk right over the top of Ryan’s waffling.

Does anyone one remember India's Statement on 9/12/2001?

Excuse me if I have it slight wrong but from memory: We stand 100% with the United States.

Where is his One liner Support Statement like India's? Aggh, to the E-GOP go, bolt if you don't want us!

"Bottom Line, Ryan blundered and now needs to save face. This statement reveals that he is now on the train."

Not yet, at least. He has declined to endorse Trump at his press conference today. He emphasizes that the discussions are a process and everything is not worked out in 45 minutes. He also acts that this and future discussions are a negotiation between equals. More to come, obviously.

I agree with your point of view. Both Trump and Ryan have positions that represent all side of today’s Republican Party. I find what was done here smart on both sides. Without Trump working with multiple sides and Ryan to help pull it together the common goal of ejecting Hillary does not happen.

Trump knows this and Ryan knows this. The naysayers spitting gobbley gook of continuing to fight and the media fueling the fires does nothing but split all sides. This should begin the process of stopping nevertrump.

It was a win for all of us voting

Ryan didn’t endorse. Says “Unity takes time.” Will have more meetings.

Presumable that is why Romney has emerged from his hole to stir the pot and dump stuff in the punch bowl.
