Paul Ryan is a good man and an effective Speaker in difficult times. He was much, much less critical of President Trump than others.
Anyone who thinks the next Speaker will mark a big improvement needs to think again.
I am not outright defending him. I just think he had an impossible job and did it with integrity and humility.
To: Dutch Boy
It wasn’t his ego that got in the way. It was his donors.

There are leaders and then there are people who have titles.

This is great news. The weeping and hiding under a bed and bed wetting has already started. One dope on another thread commented that Ryan wanted to leave before the Republicans went down below 100 seats! Ha ha ha ha cowardly moron probably never supported Trump’s revolution to begin with.
The joke here is that the Democrats actually believe this will disappoint us so much we will stay home. MORONS!!

“... but you also know this is not a job that does not last forever.”
So, in other words, it does? Sentence makes NO sense at all.

The only reason I see for Paul Ryan NOT stepping down right now, is to be in a position to help to impeach President Trump.
To: Dilbert San Diego
So whats next? He becomes a lobbyist? Or a talking head on cable news shows?Ryan's going to run against Trump in 2020...
