Former House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wisc., said Republicans should have "done better" in Tuesday's midterm elections, calling former President Trump a "drag on our ticket" that contributed to the party's disappointing results.
While interviewed from his home in Janesville, Wisconsin by local station WISN 12 News on Wednesday, Ryan said he was happy to see Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis' landslide re-election victory and that Republicans would have to reflect on why that dominant performance did not materialize elsewhere.
"I think we're going to have to do a lot of soul-searching and head scratching, looking through and parsing the numbers as to why we didn't perform as well as we would have liked to," Ryan said. "Ron got re-elected, I'm very happy to see that. It was a mixed blessing night, but we should have done better than we did."

Sadly laughable.
FUPR, at least Trump won an election.
Soul searching requires you have a soul.
Out from under his rock to make GOPe hay.
No worries - he’ll be crawling back under it soon enough.
Ryan is detestable. Pence is detestable. McConnell is detestable.
Anyone these Satans support, I will not.
Whereas I blame it on RINOs like Paul.
Ryan.
1. Ron DeSantis
2. Glenn Youngkin
3. Tim Scott
If there's any hangover, it's from YOU Paul RINO! You and Lizzie Cheney should catch the next train straight to Hell and take Mittens Romney with you!
Says the man that did everything in his power to tank Trump’s Presidency.
And the rumor mill says this is now who Desantis gets political advice.. imagine that!
Sorry Paulie. Trump haters who voted for their RAT pals are the ones I blame. ie: Dizzy Lizzie and many many others. The RATS owe them, BIG TIME. They won the election for the RATS. They are the bass turds with the “Trump hangovers.”
What is PRyno’s position within the GOP?
He’ll be back on K street Monday hawking customers for 2nd-tier leftover reward money from Biden and crew
Says the RINO clymer who thwarted President Trump for two years before gladly turning over that job to Pelosi in the 2018 midterms.
I hate that guy.
Is that wrong?
Paul Ryan should get back in the closet.
All these never Trumpers, Rhinos, Democrats hate Trump for the same reasons: He upsets their gravy train apple cart. Most of them are all bought and paid for by the military industrial complex (thus any war is a good war for us to support), big pharma, or any one of all the groups that feed off the taxpayer trough.
When the GOPe loves DeSantis to get rid of Trump, beware. I like DeSantis but he will be kicked to the curb by the GOPe once they eliminate Trump. They want more milk toast candidates like Romney and Hogan, assistant Democrats.
New drinking game...we all take a shot of Pappy Van Winkle every time the media blames the midterm “loss” on Donald.
