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."

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

Fixed it. The time to "call" Fox passed long ago. In fact, if you look at who owns them, it was NEVER time to call. They don't GAF what you or any viewers think if it's not in line with their (Saudi, Soros, Chinese, Wall Street etc) agenda.

Also, the "mass exodus" has already happened and continues to happen. Fox's viewership has gotten obliterated over the last several years, and the downward spiral shows no sign of letting up.

A glimpse into the criminally sick minds of the mainstream media and the new FOX News.

I never trusted Paul Ryan. Anyone who would run with Mitt Romney automatically sacrifices any credibility that he might have once had.

All you need to know about Ryan, is that he is a die-hard SPRINO. That is a Self-centered, Power-hungry, Reprehensible, Ignorant, No-good, Obstructionist.

And his last days in office (and even after) brought a deluge of mail to my box begging for contributions. RAT!
