How Paul Ryan is schooling President Trump on ‘the art of politics’
Conservative Review ^ | 03/18/2017 | Steve Deace

Posted on 03/19/2017 1:09:35 PM PDT by ForYourChildren

Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wisc.) would like you to have fries with that. Lots and lots of fries.

It’s one of the ways he makes sure he doesn’t have to respect you. Because when you spend your morning obsessed on social media about a tweet that some McDonald’s wannabe sent out about President Trump, it tells Ryan that you are beneath him.

It tells him you a super-sized yokel. For how can you complain about fake news, Ryan asks, when you are so easily titillated by something so banal? Enjoy that lint in your navel, guys! I’ll be over here doing as I wish while you clap like a trained seal at deep-fried click bait.

So yell at him all you want about being a RINO, but Ryan’s also busy owning Trump right now on the fake repeal of Obamacare. ..

See post 55.

The more I think about it, the more I’m convinced that’s what Trump is doing.

May scribble up a vanity tonight or tomorrow.

I wouldn’t call it owning.

I’d call it tit-for-tat, in the game theory sense. Trump knows well how to make that kind of thing work in the business world; now he’s doing it with politics. Also known as tough but fair.

Trump’s not stupid, but he has an eye for results. He’ll get nothing at all done if he is adversarial right off the bat, and he apparently believes that deadlock is unacceptable in this case. (You can argue that if you want, but he obviously thinks that doing nothing is worse than doing anything.)

Look for Ryan starting to get uncooperative or being a weasel and see Trump lower the boom on him. It’s already happened a bit with the resurfacing of the recording of Ryan during the election.

Trump is Executive Branch
Ryan is Legislative Branch

Executive branch should not be creating laws. Ryan should be owning this. Trump should keep veto pen ready. Unfortunately Obama had shifted legislation to Executive so Trump has to fill gaps until Capital Hill knows what it is supposed to be doing.

Deace said he didn’t care whether Trump or Hillary won. He’s been dead to me ever since.

“game theory that Trump is using, which always starts out positive and co-operative.”

Game Theory.

One of my all time favorites!

Alright.

I am going to have to remember this Steave Deace and not post any more of his stuff.

I do appreciate all of your comments on him. If it was only one or two or three people, then I might be able to dismiss it. But wow! So many people that do not like Steave Deace. And thanks for being specific on his shenanigans.

Thanks,
