Paul Ryan Spox: Putin Is 'Thug' Who Should 'Stay Out Of This Election'
Talking Points Memo ^ | July 27, 2016 | Esme Cribb

Posted on 07/27/2016 9:46:15 AM PDT by Trump20162020

The top spokesperson for House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-WI) had strong words in response to Donald Trump's call for Russian hackers to "find" and release the deleted emails from Hillary Clinton's private server.

"Russia is a global menace led by a devious thug," Ryan spokesman Brendan Buck told The Guardian. "Putin should stay out of this election."

You know, I think all of this stuff it moot. I believe Trump will be the next president and the election is over. I’ve never said that before.

I've pretty much reached the same conclusion. Which is why I don't get incensed about every news cycle tid-bit to come across the wires anymore.

Either he's going to win big or fail spectacularly. There is no middle ground. And if he fails, the country will deserve exactly what it gets.

So no reason to be enslaved to the media hype anymore now more than ever. It's what they want: ratings generated by sound and fury signifying nothing. I'm done being enslaved to the false god of consumerism, which is what all of this hype is about. Getting people to tune in for the latest juicy bit, so we will end up buying what they sell during the commercials. It's not about "news" anymore, if it ever was.

Ryan is pushing the Dem line again. Listen up Ryan: It's the email, stupid. Focus on the content and not the alleged messenger. There is no proof Russia hacked the DNC. And if they did, what difference at this point does it matter?

The American people needs to know what was in those deleted emails. Any one who can provide them is doing a service for America.

If they are worried that the emails are dangerous in the wrong hands, then Hillary should be under arrest for treason not Trump. What the hell is the matter with these people?

Did he call Obama a thug for interfering in the Israeli elections? Or for trying to oust the elected leader of Syria.

I think that part of Ryan's problem may be that he is high enough up to understand more of the moral, ideological & perceptual confusion inside the Beltway; that he is in a panic mode to save himself from something he believes to be coming--something beyond his ability to deal with on his own terms.

He is not up to standing with Trump, because he has been intimidated by the level of corruption that Trump dares to challenge. Ryan once showed serious ability. Lately he appears like a whipped cur, cowering with indecision. Very sad! He could have been an asset; he just wasn't up to it.

Lyin’ Ryan falls for it.
He really has no idea what is going on.

Reminds me of when Denny Hastert defended William Jefferson D-LA, was being investigated by the FBI. I said even then, Hastert was afraid of what they would find on him......and we sure found out, didn’t we?

“The top spokesperson for House Speaker Paul Ryan”

What Ryan have laryngitis or something? How much do we pay for him to have a spokesman?

Shut up, Paul. You’re a disgraceful turncoat who deserves to be beaten by Nehlen! Many of us here have donated money to his campaign. We want you, and all your like, to get the hell out of the corrupted nation’s capitol.

Does this jerk have proof that Putin is involved?

Vlad is living rent free in the heads of the democrats and traitors like Paul Ryan.

Globalist Paul Ryan doesn’t like people getting in the way of a globalist Clinton win.

Let me get this straight. Ryan helped to pass the unconstitutional omnibus spending bill that provides funding for Planned Parenthood and now he’s hypocritally calling Putin a thug.

Is that right or do I have the wires crossed?

Wasn’t it the DEMOCRATS who first brought up the accusations against RUSSIA?

Trump should put up a bounty for recovery of the 33,000 emails. A cool million, no questions asked.

Another example of why Republicans lose nationally. Paul, there is NO reason for you to tell us the Russians are naughty. Just shut up and let the spectacle play out. Stupid!
