The longer Trump waits to put an end to this crap, the weaker he looks.

I see the opposite. The longer Ryan waits & others come aboard he will be seen as weak & leading from behind.

Exactly. Why does Trump need to end this? What should he concede?

Ryan started this stupidity with Romney. Trump won and they can go eff themselves.

The longer it takes the GOP to unite around Trump, the more divided the Party beccomes. It is fine to give Ryan some room for face-saving, but you reach a point where you must tell the Chairman of the Convention, endorse me or get out of the way. This needs to happen prior to the convention.

I hope that Trump does not back away from his signature issue of immigration. I know that the GOPe is diametrically opposed to deportation and the Wall. They want outreach to Hispanics. If Trump does that, it hurts his appeal to non-Hispanic whites, blacks, and blue collar workers. Ryan is for amnesty and against building the Wall. He wants to increase the guest worker programs and he supports these multilateral trade deals that also increase the importation of more foreign workers.

There will be platform fights over these issues.
