MILWAUKEE — House Speaker Paul Ryan said Saturday he thinks President Donald Trump will be an asset to GOP candidates this fall in states like Wisconsin that he narrowly won, even as he warned fellow Republicans that a “blue wave” could wipe out advancements made during his presidency.

Ryan addressed about 600 people at the Wisconsin Republican convention, his final one after 20 years in office. The state’s entire GOP congressional delegation, along with Gov. Scott Walker, honored Ryan, who received a standing ovation and chant from the audience of “Thank you, Paul!”

Ryan told delegates he was surprised on election night in 2016 when it became clear Trump was going to win Wisconsin — the first Republican to carry the state since 1984. Trump won by less than 1 point.

Ryan told reporters later he doesn’t think controversies surrounding Trump are resonating with voters in states like Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania.

Even if it happened they can’t unless Trump signed any bill they sent to him.

Well, Ryan is absolutely correct. I will add that a large meteor strike could wipe out all life on earth.

If yer gonna speculate, you should do it large. :)

No blue wave if Dems don’t take Senate.
Manchin and Nelson trail in polls.
Sure districts HRC carried and Repub is up for reelection or open seat could flip. Plus Pa new map and Calif primary.

If you let the scales of bigotry fall from you eyes, you could see that the Speaker is warning against complacency that could lose the House and impeach the President

Paul Ryan did more harm to much of Trump’s agenda than any blue wave could.

I guess that’s why Pauline is quitting and heading for the hills with his tail tucked between his legs.

Executive order Presidency... That’s all Obama had after his first two years in office. He essentially managed to get by for another 6 doing executive orders almost exclusively.

North and South Korea have to go back at it.

The US Embassy will be moved out of Jerusalem.

People must leave their newly acquired jobs and return their raises and bonuses.

Iran gets a Nuke.

Back to Kyoto.

Both Democrats and Republicans will use the phrase “blue wave” for their fund raising purposes.

Lil Paulie speaks of the blue wave ,to scare voters into continuing to vote for RINO candidates. It is unreal how the Majority speaker cannot and refuses to back our President!
