For the life of me I never could understand how a former VP candidate who couldn’t summon up the balls to stand up against Joe Biden in a debate could muster the support to be voted Speaker of the House. I can only conclude that those who voted for him likewise had no balls.

“Ultra Conservative”.

For the umpteenth time, why do we never hear the characterization “Ultra Liberal”?

Paul “omnibus spending” Ryno should save us all the trouble and for the good of the country: RESIGN.

This coincides with another report, which quoted an unnamed Freedom Caucus member saying it is “a pretty sure bet there will be” a GOP challenger taking on Paul Ryan for the Speaker’s gavel.

PFFFFTTTT!!! The Republican's will be lucky to hold the House of Representatives at this point. Looks like they may lose the Senate because of milquetoasts like Ryan over there.

No, he’s not. If he loses his election, he’ll just get some six-figure sinecure somewhere and laugh all the way to the bank.

He tried to breech contract with military widows’ retirement

Hugh Hewitt had to take it on. He won, too.

You lose to Hewitt going at you from the right, it’s only a matter of time.

Paul Ryan behaves like a prick

The next Speaker needs to deliver an actual annual budget, not this nonsense of continuing resolutions. If nothing else, the Speaker of the House should act like a grown-up.

Our elected representatives don’t represent us. They’re worthless, and don’t even have the integrity to be embarrassed about it.

He posts updates on Facebook and the comments are rife with angry voters expressing some serious hostility over his position on Trump.

If Trump wins Ryan is done as Speaker.

If Trump loses I don’t care what they do with Ryan because I will no longer be a Republican.

Not gonna happen. They voted for the RINO and they’ll stick with him.

Paul Ryan was also in deep trouble in his primary (supposedly), but he seems to have survived it OK.

Another straw in the camels back of the "great disillusionment" as I call it of this election cycle as everyone's mask come off.

For what it is worth....

* Ryan was the vaulted wiz kid of Empower America.
* Proud as all get up was Bill Bennett of Paul.
* I get the pride, I won't take it against Mr Bennett, Sure he rose through the ranks, but this is a guy who was a VP candidate that has passed what 3 Bills in his life?
* So how does one now not question the stature of all our vaulted Conservative think tanks? ( oh their are many here on FR who lambaste Heritage for example ).
* Are they an income stream for those that set them up?

Inquiring minds want to know.

Just my 2 cents... I can't see Ryan or McConnell making beyond the 1st Hundred Days. For Trump to be successful, they need to get with the program or go back to a committee and or retire in 2 years. Their time has come and gone....
