Paul Ryan reportedly wants to use his position on the board of Fox to 'do something' about Trump

Ryan, who joined the Fox Corporation board in March, is now reportedly one of the most important voices pushing Fox CEO Lachlan Murdoch to transition Fox New and pivot away from Trump, according to Vanity Fair.

"Paul is embarrassed about Trump and now he has the power to do something about it," a Fox executive told Vanity Fair.

Ryan has been openly critical of Trump ever since leaving Congress. In several on-the-record interviews for Politico correspondent Tim Alberta's book "American Carnage," Ryan didn't mince words about Trump.

"I told myself I gotta have a relationship with this guy to help him get his mind right," Ryan told Alberta. "Because, I'm telling you, he didn't know anything about government ... I wanted to scold him all the time."

Sigh. I doubt he has much influence on anyone, any more.

This jackwad better not have any skeletons in his closet. Trump will have him at gitmo along with the other coup plotters if he isn’t more careful.

Another RatRino looking for the coveted “maverick” nickname and pretend adulation from our domestic enemies.

Time to call Fox News with message to Ryan that his vision of Fox is grounds for a mass exodus of their heretofore loyal audience.

IMHO, RYAN and ROMNEY are laying the groundwork for a run for PRESIDENT/VICE PRESIDENT. They are Deep State’s last hope to defeat PRESIDENT TRUMP.

I know the feeling. I feel like slapping Paul Ryan whenever I am reminded he is still alive.

I could go on Politico about Ryan and not mince words either. Unfortunately they would be edited out. Turd face is nothing but an empty suit RINO.

Oh geez!! A Romney-Ryan ticket?

Who the HELL would vote for them? If Trump has a high 80’s to low 90’s support from Republicans many votes does he get from the right?

What Dem/Libs would vote for those two....answer ZERO!

That leaves Independents and even if he got 100% of the Ind vote, which of course he won’t, he won’t even come close.

Too many here on FR who are into wild conspiracy theories.

*****************************************************
In all his years in Washington, I can’t think of a single signature accomplishment that Ryan did FOR THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.... not a single one.

On the other hand look at all that Trump is accomplishing for America and Americans.

So Trump may not have known much about government when he took office but he sure learned quick and proceeded to GET THINGS DONE FOR THE AMERICAN PEOPLE IN SPITE OF MASSIVE RESISTANCE FROM THE WASHINGTON ESTABLISHMENT.
