30 guys can stop a Speaker from being elected.

Spin it as you will, but House Freedom Caucus votes pushed Ryan way over the top to become Speaker for them.

Sounds like you’re the one doing the spinning.

Change the record already. We all know that we have been duped by Ryan. Trump has culpability here. He ran a campaign based on repeal of Obamacare. He needed to build a coalition of supporters of such legislation. If he did not have the votes from the beginning, this never should have proceeded.

Go watch “House of Cards” and see how imperative it is to have votes counted and in place before a vote and making sure that legislation will pass. If that does not happen, the majority party looks disordered and the president winds up with egg on his face.

And say what you will, Trump propped him up when he was all but out the door.

You’ve said it enough, we get it. You’re against the Freedom Caucus.
