House Speaker Paul Ryan opened the door Monday to stepping down as Republican convention chairman if asked by presumptive presidential nominee Donald Trump, whom Ryan has declined to endorse.
Ryan first made the comments during a meeting with Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reporters.
Milwaukee Journal Sentinel columnist Christian Schneider tweeted: “.@SpeakerRyan on whether he'd step down as convention chair if Trump asks: I'll do whatever he asks me to do.”
Asked about the reported comments, a spokeswoman for Ryan confirmed to Fox News: “That is his position, yes.”

I think it is all about Cruz. They are as sulky and bitter as their candidate.
They are meeting. Ryan demands that Trump surrender his reasons for running for office (America First) and adopt Ryan’’s agenda which Ryan misnames conservative.
Ryan “demanding” anything from Trump is laughable...
The mods removed #214 but I can imagine. I read this morning that as I predicted Cruz is going to be back in his senate seat this week with nothing to show for all the money and effort he wasted. I imagine a lot of these anti Trumpers are political operatives on troll duty.
” I imagine a lot of these anti Trumpers are political operatives on troll duty.”
Bank on it.
Maybe.
Momincombatboots called us Nazis. I’m just glad Cruz is back at work - a 6 month vacation (including the Kentucky Derby!) is about right for the average Washington politician. I hope Texas rethinks this guy.
The way to tell if they are trolls is to start mocking them. If they don’t get pulled off message and respond then they are trolls. I was only able to get D6 off message once and I’m really obnoxious so I’m calling political operative on her.
Thanks for the tip! They have been coming out in the woodwork in the last two days.
