"You have said that you will support the Republican nominee. Now you have a nominee, Donald Trump. will you support him?" Tapper asked.

"Well, to be perfectly can did with you, I'm not ready to do that yet. I am not there right now. I hope to and want to. What's required is that we unify the party... I do not want to underplay what he accomplished. He needs to be congratulated for winning the delegates, but he inherited something special," Ryan said. VIDEO...

I totally agree. If he had an “accident,” I would not be upset.

Trump and Ryan are both playing to their base. They will both cave to each other and declare the party united. Trump gives in to conservatives and Ryan gives in to Trump supporters.

OH sorry ...

Forgive me.

Sometimes it is hard to tell with text.

I have had 2 or 3 come against me stating that I was a RINO because I had screen name “bushwon” blah blah blah especially over past few months when things were tense.

Again, please accept my apology, tho I may put a new signoff or tagline in LOL

“Hopefully, the good people of Wisconsin will make this a moot point, soon. “

It won’t be soon enough. If Paul Ryan is allowed to be the Chairman of the Republican National Convention (RNC), he could deny motions from the floor of the convention, rule the ayes have it when the noes really had it, refuse to acknowledge a call for division to stop the false voice vote, deny objections from the floor of the convention, and refuse to acknowledge points of order from the floor. Somehow he needs to recuse or be removed from any possibility to serve as a chair man for a convention in which he opposes the presumptive nominee.

Can this little thug be for real?

Paul Ryan, the face of open borders and shill for the North American Union attitude of the USCCB (US Conference of Catholic Bishops) and the La Raza sympathizers.

WHO does he think he is and who promised him the Special Snowflake Seat of Selection of the next President of the United States.

Paul Ryan needs to LOSE Wisconsin.





Lyin' Ted is at it again!

Washington delegate: "If Cruz camp is texting delegates then he is not OUT people!!!!!" PLEASE GET THIS ON TWIITTER; I don't have an account..."



If this is true, then Ted Cruz is really a snake, acting like he's quitting so Trump supporters can relax and don't vote. Until this whole thing is finished, Trump supporters still have to vote to make sure.

Since the announcement that he was suspending his campaign on Tuesday, many voters think it's a ploy and that he's still planning to steal the election. The following message has been circulating Facebook:


"Cruz is trying 2 steal Kasich & Rubio's delegates. He didn't really drop out. Suspend & End are 2 different things"






= = = = = = = = = = = = = = =




Excellent catch, HarleyLady27! I'm sure several us are NOT surprised to read this news. I take some solace knowing that Romney will not be present at the Convention to stir the anti-Trump plot.

As for Paul Ryan, I'm thrilled the squishy dweeb has a challenger and that Ryan's congressional area YUGELY supported Mr. Donald Trump in Wisconsin's primary. I think that showing bodes well for Ryan's challenger.

Like RitaOK said, "Paul Ryan needs to LOSE Wisconsin."

President Trump will merit a SOTH who will be solidly in his camp! Needless to say, Paul Ryan doesn't begin to meet that criteria.

No problem, Kit cat!

It’s forgotten :)

Ryan can and hopefully will be primaried this fall—all house members are up for re-election every 2 years.

Can’t come soon enough for this RINO scumbag! There is someone stepping up to the plate to do that, too :)

Perhaps Ryan knows about shenanigans at the convention that will prevent Trump from being the nominee...the Bushes are aware of same.

DONALD J. TRUMP RESPONDS TO SPEAKER PAUL RYAN

"I am not ready to support Speaker Ryan's agenda. Perhaps in the future we can work together and come to an agreement about what is best for the American people. They have been treated so badly for so long that it is about time for politicians to put them first!"

Donald J. Trump

Those who keep telling you they are conservative, are usually NOT!

At the end of day does it really matter if they claim to be conservative if they have delivered absolutely nothing conservative during 7.5 years of Obama, the socialist community organizer from Chicago?

I heard Trump’s response, while driving home, today...and almost veered into the next lane, because I was laughing SO much.

Way to go, Trump. I truly love this man’s chutzpah.

Could Lyin Paul RINO possibly give Trump a better endorsement???

LOLOL.

Comparisons of Hitler and Stalin to Trump is a fictional nonsense, and ludicrous in the context.

I'm not surprised that a TrumpSteer would fail to recognize that choosing to endorse one of two evil political leaders is still evil and morally inferior to choosing none of the above. Have you ever heard the expression "don't get caught on the horns of a false dilemma"?

If Speaker Ryan sticks to his guns he will become the moral leader of the Republican Party.
