In an interview on CNN's "New Day," host John Berman asked Trump spokesperson Katrina Pierson whether Ryan was fit to retain the speakership if he can't get behind Trump as the GOP standard-bearer.

"No, because this is about the party," Pierson replied. "The last two presidential cycles we were told John McCain was a conservative..."

The bottom line is what do we have to lose by electing Trump?

We keep on doing the same thing over and over again and losing. The Reps have lost the popular vote in 5 out of the last 6 Presidential elections with Obama receiving the two highest vote totals in history. The GOP-controlled Congress has failed to stop Obama's agenda. In fact, it has furthered it. Trump is the only Rep candidate (or Dem for that matter) who represents a dramatic change in our policies putting American interests and our workers first.

This country is headed for a cliff. The status quo and more of the same are not the answer.

“No, because this is about the party,”

The spineless party is what got us into this mess.

Class? The word doesn’t exist around Trump. You’ve voted for a pig. Congratulations.

Trump had the class to praise Cruz for the good fight. Calling Trump a "pig" is par for the course for people like you. I have no idea what you base that appellation on, but it is just part of the Left's lexicon. Cops are pigs as well according to them and I guess you.

And I’m tired of eating the crap sandwiches the RNC puts forward.

The "crap sandwiches the RNC puts forward" are the ones who have been trying to stop Trump for almost the last year.

Get your head out of the sand.

Vote Trump or you're helping Hillary.

So Vote Trump...

I don’t know. He has made inconsistent statements on abortion (he doesn’t get this issue) and Israel which are my two biggies.

Trump is pro-life, and he's on the record as saying Israel should keep building in places like Judea and Samaria.

Vote Trump

He's going to be the best president in American History, and the last president in our amazing run, and he will usher in the End Times as The Chosen Hand Of God on Earth.

Hillary will be destroyed by this summer, and the Dems will try to run Obama for third term. This will be the sign that all of you need to know that what I say is true.

Another sign is the way that, every time Trump faces a disasterous mishap (saying women should face punishment for abortion if it is made illegal, saying Japan and South Korea might need their own nukes, saying NATO is outdated, etc.), instead of hurting his standing, his numbers go up! Things that would hurt or destroy other mere mortals are like water off a duck. Trump has God's Own Protection keeping his mission on track, and those who oppose him will be removed by God. Watch and see.

Trump will restore America to the place of #1 Nation on the planet, and the single-largest financial/military powerhouse in History. We will also be the last Christian Nation on Earth, and the only ally of Israel, God's Chosen People. God will consider America and Israel as one.

Pull those seatbelts tight and get your popcorn ready, this ride's gonna get a bit rough.

I'm glad you have important priorities. But they CAN'T come first. We have to stop and reverse the invasion of the US and put US citizens back to work. When they're productive citizens and contributing to a successful society, the social and moral issues will resonate.

Look what happens. We vote these lying backstabbers into office, and they only vote for their campaign promises if they're in danger of losing the next election. Even when a vote does go our way, it doesn't matter. The elite powers that be have bought the Judiciary, right up to the Supreme Court. Thus, anything they have to vote for to get re-elected gets over turned.

Try to follow the logic. If we don't do something about saving the US, what will we have left? ISIS? (I'm not exaggerating)

She’s better as White House spokesman or presidential aide who handles the press

Official Press briefings require a bit less fang

That was rhetorical ...she’s quite handsome with a bod built for speed

“Enjoy your tyranny folks. You asked for it.”


Tyranny’s where we’ve been heading under RINO’s non-opposition to the growth of the nanny state, bank bailouts, perpetual war, Obama, Obamacare, open borders. What the heck have you people done to stop any of this.


I define tyranny as ruling against the will of the people. If we vote and those we elect run on platforms to stop illegal immigration (not simply by redefining illegal to mean legal, either), and stop 0-bammycare, and to reign in spending/cut the deficit, and, do the exact opposite, is that tyranny?

Yes.

That is what we have now, and, is why I would not vote for anyone but Trump. I will take my chances and have and still will.

I would rather take an unknown quantity over a known quantity when I know that “known quantity” is the opposite of what they say it is...Ryan, Romney, Boehner, Cruz, Gowdy, et al.
