Exclusive: Paul Ryan Reportedly Says No Chance for Border Wall at Private Dinner
Breitbart ^ | September 12 | Ian Mason

Posted on 09/12/2017 8:58:02 PM PDT by EliRoom8

House Speaker Paul Ryan, at a private dinner earlier this year, said he thought only “one member” wanted to build a wall across the entire U.S.-Mexico border, Breitbart News has learned from multiple sources with direct knowledge of the comments, including former Rep. Tom Tancredo (R-CO).

The dinner, sources said, took place on the eve of the House’s passage of two relatively minor immigration bills at the end of June: Kate’s Law and sanctuary city reforms. The far wider reaching Davis-Oliver Act was tabled at the same time.

“Ryan told a group of Republicans he met with … that only one person wants a wall,” Tancredo told Breitbart News shortly after the dinner.

Warning! ! ! There's a very intrusive and very obstinate Breitbart News ad covering this article. I had to actually provide an email address before the ad would move away. It's very disappointing to see BN pull this nonsense. WTH!

Millions and millions of us want the wall. Apparently Ryan ...the little prince...doesn’t care.

>>I want the wall.
********************
It struck me as I read your words that the only way this wall is ever going to really be built is if we raise the money and build it ourselves.

There may be no chance of a border wall at the private dinner, but there’s a large chance of one at the border.

I just remember the media gushing about Ryan’s body building and gym attendance when he was chosen by Romney for the VP slot during the 2012 election cycle. Then Joe Biden wiping the floor with him during those debates. Then after he made Speaker, his efforts to grow a beard. How this creep ever made it to House Speaker is just beyond me. Has he ever NOT been anti-Trump, anti-middle class, and yes, anti-white?

He became Speaker due to a deal that the House Freedom Caucus made. What that entailed I am not sure.

Lyin’ Ryan is the epitome of the “establishment.” He has to be Cantorized.

Ryan has to be replaced. McConnell must be replaced, and all RINO’s must be replaced with constitutional conservatives before any headway can be made to restoring, and “making America great again”.

It wouldn’t hurt a bit to discover exactly the traitorous chain of support the left has created in their efforts to destroy the nation we love, and so many have fought, and died for.

Paul Ryan’s rise in the House is solely based on a brief meeting about obamacare before it became law.

He reeled off some numbers and looked smart and tough with obama for about 6 minutes. That’s it! Other than that, he’s been a total flop. He’s accomplished nothing for the American people. He even had his ass handed to him in a VP debate by Joe freakin’ Biden.

Ryan is worse than useless. He’s actually harmful to the American people. He’s not part of the solution. He’s part of the problem.

Other than this 6 minute prepared rant that his staff put together for him, he’s accomplished nothing:

That’s it — NOTHING!

Here is the real link:

Please note that the story reports that Ryan said this back in June.

Clearly though, wall-building is something that Ryan will have to be coerced into doing, against his will.

Trump needs to declare martial law and govern by decree for about 2 years. Deputize all 63 million of his supporters and the United States military to back him up. Ready? Let’s Roll.....

“Ryan told a group of Republicans he met with … that only one person wants a wall,”

That may be true and that one person may be ... Donald Trump ... until Roy Moore is sworn in. The problem is much bigger than just Paul Ryan.

p.s. you don’t have to provide an email address in that Breitbart ad (though I guess it’s too late for you now). You just click the “x” in the top right corner and the ad goes away.... although I agree, I hate pop-up ads!

Ryan promised a full Obamacare repeal.
