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:
If you cannot defend the President and your party….find another job. Loyalty in politics is #1. We succeed or fail togethet.
Working with him is, so get to it.
You were not elected to bow down to Obama either, but you did. Support the President.
Apparently the will of the people is not what he plans to do either.
Traitor
A little too late where has your leadership been buried in the sand
Unfortunately for speaker Ryan he has not done anything he was elected to do.
YOu don’t need to defend Trump, he, unlike you sorry asses, knows how to defend himself. Your job is to do what you$#%&!@*wipes promised for 7 years and now we know you all lied to us about Repeal! $#%&!@*for brains it was always Repeal, NOT Repeal and Replace !
He needs to go!!
