House Speaker Paul Ryan pleaded with President Trump in a phone call to tout the booming economy rather than continue attacking the migrant caravan in Mexico in the final days before Tuesday’s midterm elections, according to a report on Monday.
The Wisconsin Republican reached out to Trump on Sunday and urged him to change his message but the president said his focus on immigration is firing up his supporters, Politico reported.
“Trump has hijacked the election,” a senior House Republican aide told Politico about Trump’s attention on immigration. “This is not what we expected the final weeks of the election to focus on.”

Ryno ryan is a lame duck establishment POS. GOP candidates need to ally with Trump.
On a related note in WI, Walker is having a hard time against a relatively weak candidate precisely because he alienated some Trump voters by siding with Ryan against Trump.
Time to check out real estate in John Boehner ‘s neighborhood.Paulie
The quicker this RINO, Ryan retires and fades into ignominious obscurity, the better America will be. What a MORON.
Great point. I never thought of that until now. This is why I love this site!
LOL, I was thinking about just how to say that, and realized it wasn’t worth the time I was expending...you said what I felt.
I believe you are correct.
There is a schism in the GOP that Trump exposed.
Those who side with the citizens and the rule of law.
And Bush League Republicans who side with illegal aliens and their employers.
Walker tried to straddle the fence.
Paul Ryan failed to replace Obamacare - he gave the Dems their only issue.
They want Trump to focus on the economy so Obama can create a legacy for himself by trying to convince it’s his economy after Bush wrecked it the MSM is ready to support that narrative.Obama is going to push HC too.
Hey Benedict Ryan, STFU and go away, stop nursing at the public trough!
Don’t make the mistake of assuming an anonymous quote is not a reporter-generated fiction.
If I ran a newspaper, running ANY anonymous quote would be a firing offense. That industry has no integrity at all.
We all know the Ministry of Propaganda has no integrity.
There is also no integrity in quite a few of the elected GOP who are still not on the side of the citizens and the rule of law.
Whatever he says, do the opposite. Trump may as well take advice from Soros as listen to this traitor. People can tell from their paychecks how well their own economy is doing. I would trust Trump’s instincts any day.
This means that President Trump’s rhetoric is effective against the Dems and RHINOS. More talk concerning the caravan. Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead
Hmmm, who knew Speaker Ryan’s marching orders came has the same origins as the media’s talking points? The DNC’s failing reach touched so many.
I pity this man’s wife. He probably tried to lecture her about how to breastfeed the baby.
Paul Ryan should sit down and shut up. It’s his fault that the Dems even have a breath of a chance today. If he wanted to quit, he should have gotten off the stage instead of trying to block Trump’s agenda. I hope we keep the house and that they elect Jim Jordan as Speaker.
