Paul Ryan’s knock on Trump exactly what’s wrong with politics

Letters to the Editor

How can Speaker Of The House Paul Ryan stand in front of a nation that overwhelmingly voted for Donald Trump to be the Republican nominee for President and say he’s not on board or ready to support a member of his own party? That is the type nonsense primary election voters rebelled against in voting for Trump in the first place. The big-shots in both political parties just don’t get it — that the nation is sick and tired of the status quo! In this election, the electorate will change what the party leaders won’t. Or perhaps new party leaders are in order, as well.

Bob Pritchard, Homer Glen

To all the pouting Republicans who cannot or will not accept Donald Trump as your candidate for president, all I can say is that you had your chance and you failed miserably. The choice is now clear: Hillary Clinton for the next four years or get behind your candidate, Donald Trump, and support him. There are no gray areas here. You blew it when you were afraid to stand up to President Barrack Obama; he played you all like a Steinway piano.

Mike Turay, Crete

Yep - Ryan made the “Party” give him concessions before he would “accept” the Speaker seat. He then got such a big head that he decided to try to strong-arm Trump - only Trump doubled down and warned him of possible consequences......

Your statement is not factual. He and Trump have been talking over the past month. He said he would vote for Trump because Hillary would be a worse option. Just because he does not swoon over Trump and is not a total “yes” man, does not mean he is working against him.

In fact, Trump endorsed Ryan last Friday. I don’t think he would do that if Ryan were working against him.
