Paul Ryan: Trump a “scourge” on the country, Republican Party Attacks Gaetz
Deseret News ^ | 10/5/2023 | Suzanne Bates

Former House Speaker Paul Ryan said the historic vote to remove Kevin McCarthy from his role as speaker on Tuesday was “a total disgrace.”

He also had strong words about former President Donald Trump, who he said was a “scourge” on the country and the Republican Party.

Ryan said an “unprincipled demagogue” overthrew McCarthy for “just doing his job” — referring to Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., who coordinated the effort to remove McCarthy from his role, and who Ryan criticized by name later in his remarks.

“The kind of populism we have right now is not rooted in principle. It’s unprincipled populism, wrapped around the cult of a personality on Donald Trump. And this populism is gripping our party in very ugly ways,” he said. “And it’s manifesting itself in this ugly politics that we just saw displayed on the House floor two days ago. We have to get past this.”

They well and truly hate him. Why? No, really why?
His presidency madefor what was likely the best 4 years of my 70 year life.
Because they hate him so much and I loathe them so much tells me he is the man we need.

A whole generation of losers. I wonder if we were to look at a different period of US history, would we find such a lot as this?

Paul Ryan is a scrunge on the earth, and should be deplatformed, disinfected, and disposed of properly.

You’re right.

McCarthy, McConnell, Graham - this is no coincidence they all ended up at the top while working for the other side.
