Trump Completes Total Humiliation of Paul Ryan by Refusing to Endorse Him

"Paul Ryan has continued to stand behind Donald Trump this summer despite the many, many, many things Trump has done and said that would make a more principled politician reconsider his support. Ryan has justified it all by arguing repeatedly that he and his fellow Republicans could accomplish far more with Trump in office than with his opponent. It turns out, however, that Trump does not feel the same way about the House speaker.

In an interview with the Washington Post on Tuesday, Trump refused to endorse Ryan in his upcoming GOP primary election in Wisconsin against Tea Party-style businessman Paul Nehlen. “I like Paul [Ryan], but these are horrible times for our country,” Trump said of the highest-ranking Republican in the U.S. government. “We need very strong leadership. We need very, very strong leadership. And I’m just not quite there yet. I’m not quite there yet.”

At this point, nothing Trump does should surprise anyone, but this is a stunning decision. It comes just two weeks after Ryan tried to rally his party at the GOP convention and Trump officially became the Republican Party nominee. It also comes at a time when we are starting to see small, but significant cracks in the façade of GOP unity following Trump’s ill-conceived feud with the gold star parents of a fallen Muslim American soldier."

Maybe they are just waiting for the next time, or the time after that, or the one after that :blah: ...

SOme ppl just hope he is going to change, but it isn't going to happen.. HE CAN'T!!

I am guessing after getting dissed(in his little mind) by so many ppl, including repubs & not getting his student rip-off case dismissed HE IS GONNA BE PISSED & SOMEONE IS GONNA HAVE TO PAY, & HE DON'T CARE WHO..
 
maybe he is giving ryan a taste of his own medecine :) i remember when ryan wasnt ready to endorse him as well.
 
Yep, tit for tat.. & just like him to do it..

Not very good politics though..

Ryan has corrected him several times & this is his biggest comeBACK that I can recall... Thus far he has been spared the barrage of insults, but I think it is only a matter of time..
 
Trump never wanted to win this election. He's getting worried that he's got a chance, so he'll make sure to raze the entire campaign now.


Barring that, he's been taking his cues from past Right Wing nominees. He's channeling Nixon with his 'law and order candidate' nonsense.

This latest move might just be his attempt to rekindle a dying Teaparty movement....separating himself from all establishment politicians, and seeing where the chips fall.

Odd...because Ryan is about as Teabagger as they come.

Didn't Ryan say the exact same thing about Trump?
