Paul Ryan may have endorsed Donald Trump earlier this year, but it’s clear he’s taken no pleasure in doing so. Even after his endorsement — and despite being the highest ranking member of the Republican Party — Paul Ryan has often refused to defend Trump. To many, it appeared as if Ryan has been looking for a way out for months. This week, he may have found his excuse in the recently released “Trump tapes.”
The tapes, in which Trump bragged about his ability to woo women with his celebrity, was condemned across the board. Even his own wife called the remarks “unacceptable and offensive.” Trump has since apologized, and announced he was committed to finishing his campaign.
For most conservatives, that should be enough. Despite the unflattering portrayal these tapes leveled on Trump’s image, he remains the only conservative in the race. If Republican leaders actually care about the implementation of conservative law, Trump is the only logical choice. Giving Clinton veto power over a Republican-controlled congress would stall the conservative movement for years, if not more.
But Paul Ryan doesn’t seem to care about any of that. Despite the fact that his speakership would be all but useless without a Republican in the White House, he is once again announcing that he will no longer campaign with or for Donald Trump.

WE THE PEOPLE are sickened by YOU!
Amen
Yup his nose is brown but he’s still alive!
He is not a republican, a traitor to the party and he has never supported Trump!
Mr. Ryan you have your head so far up Obumers$#%&!@*you can’t see how to point your finger at anyone! Looser!
Screw you and what you think Paul!
He’s just so scared for his own future in politics… Just hope for your sake Paul this doesn’t backfire!
What a waste of time and a professional loser…
Mr. Speaker. Why don’t you put your efforts into winning the election, and not in trashing your party’s nominee? You RINOS would like nothing better than to see your candidate, Hillary, in the White House. After all, it doesn’t matter to you turncoats who’s in the WH. You get your pay just the same.
Americans take a good look at what we put in office.I hope to God Almighty you get served by him
