Don't trust Ryan.

Dems might be infighting over Pelosi taking back over. She's certainly an aging face (despite the BoTox) for the party.

This is a sign that nothing is going to change. Total corruption at the top. They’re going to suck Trump into that mess.

He was nominated. But the actual vote isn’t until January, which is an eternity. We shall see.

Title seems to be at odds with the article. Nominated I get but I didn’t think the speaker was voted in until the new sitting congress.

Good comments on this thread! Thanks.

Perhaps the NYT and GOPe are trying to prevent another candidate from challenging sellout Ryan by making it look like it’s already a done deal.

That worked out for them so well with Hillary’s election...

Prince Rebus is Chief of staff.

That means Ryan remains as Speaker of the House.

and Freepers were against me when I stated that Priebus is the worst pick that Trump did so far...

What do you get when you’re buds with a traitor like Ryan?

"Don't trust Ryan."

WI was the win IMHO for Trump. In that sense he owes Prebius and Ryan somewhat for that. However IMHO Ryan has a pipeline to get things done via Reince. He'd better perform. My guess is DJT is keeping "his enemies closer" if you will..

“Rachael Bade ;@rachaelmbade · 1h1 hour ago
BIG WOW: @freedomcaucus original cast member @RepMickMulvaney is nominating @SpeakerRyan for speaker! “

He was seconded by Trump’s liason man to the House; Chris Collins.
And also seconded by Martha McSally of the RINO “Second Tuesday Group”.

Trump seems to be well in charge.

Before believing everything you read as to the whys and wherefores, remember who is going to be our President...

We trusted him, backed him, stood beside him through hell and high water, and now because a ‘snake’ is still in a position, you think that is going to take down everything we believe in?

No, folks, there is a plan, we don't know what it is, but Trump does...don't ever doubt what that man can do, look at where he is, look at what he has done in his life, do you think he got there by being ‘blinded or stupid’? No, he didn't, there is a plan here somewhere, and in time, Trump will show us...

Stop the ‘pearl clutching and the fainting sofa’ crap, and stand up and watch the Master at work...

So far all re-elected unanimously.
Only contest is between Williams and Stivers for NRCC chair.
