Paul Ryan did not support Donald Trump during the campaign and often refused to defend him in the lead-up to the election. Now that Trump is President of the United States, not much has changed.
Sure, Ryan has participated in the requisite photo ops and has propped up Trump-backed legislation, but he has only been chummy with Trump when it’s convenient. It’s when the left surrounds Trump in a scandal that Ryan heads for the hills.
We saw this happen last year when the Access Hollywood tapes leaked. Many Republicans believed that audio, which featured a lewd conversation between Trump and Billy Bush, would ultimately cost Trump the election. Ryan subsequently announced that he would neither defend nor campaign with Trump.
Now that Trump is involved in another media-driven scandal — this time about Russia — Ryan is playing a familiar tune.
See what Ryan said that has many Trump supporters furious on the next page:
GET HIM OUT! He has NEVER supported Trump.
Vote him out
Doing what the voters WANT IS was you were elected to do!
Dirt bag!
well you should try doing what you are elected to do–that would be something new for you.
Ryan the Rat must be booted out !
POS , need not say more .
Standing up for our country and the citizens is your job. And defending all those who fight for us should be part of the job you were elected for.
Ryan is a fallen star, very much like another fallen star I can think of… maybe it was in the bible? Yes, I just compared Paul Ryan to the devil.
I don’t trust him. I wish Trump would get rid of him!
