His objective is to destroy Trump and he is alienating Trump from the very people who support him most. The anti-Trumpers are NOT on the right of the party. They are on the left and that snake Ryan didn’t call for a vote as that would have made things OBVIOUS most Congressmen who opposed Repeal of Obamacare were RINOs. By not calling for a floor vote, he allowed himself to control the narrative, alienate Trump from his base, and keep Obamacare, which is what he, the RINOs, Boehner and the Democrat left wanted all along.

If this is true about Ryan, then why isn't there at least an attempted revolt from the HFC, who both supported him for speaker and still do so?

The hypocrisy flying around is breathtaking. If Speaker Ryan is so bad for the Trump agenda, then where is the will in the Congressional GOP to stop it? I hear crickets from the HFC on that point.

Apparently, they want to leave Speaker Ryan in charge and just keep bitching and nothing more. If they oppose what Ryan did, then let them oppose Ryan as Speaker.

I certainly would love to see that, but, like I say, it's apparently more desirable for the HFC (and others in the House GOP) to flap their gums, rather than take courageous action against a Speaker who is ostensibly out to sabotage the President.

So what if they fail? At least they could put the idea out there and argue its merits.

But no. They meekly say "we support our Speaker". The entire GOP House is a bunch of cowards, including the HFC. If Paul Ryan is the problem, then why aren't they saying so?

Obstruction is easy. Let's see some constructive leadership in the House from somebody.
