I sure hope he has a lot of dancing shoes in his closet, because at the rate he’s going, he’s going to wear out a pair a week…
“No, I didn’t,” Ryan responded, arguing that he doesn’t agree with Hillary Clinton on anything, but that he has common ground with Trump.
and this is the point where Todd should have asked about what positions that Trump and Ryan share common ground on…
a luta continua
“Imagine the Speaker of the House not supporting the duly elected nominee of our party, therefore creating a chasm in our party to split us in half,” he told NBC host Chuck Todd.
Great question Todd! I can see the Ads already. 
Republicans everywhere are putting “party over country” by ellecting a freaking idiot…
I admit that I only made it thru 4 minutes before the bile started to rise but I did hear Ryan say that, if Donald Trump says or does anything that goes against conservative values, he would speak up.
Conservative values? How about AMERICAN values, you cheap sell-out Koch puppet?
Princess Elsa Paul Ryan came across as clueless, incompetent and ignorant.
To Ryan and company, Todd’s question makes no sense. To them, party is country.
To paraphrase Mr Ryan “Party over country? Fool there is no difference. Like communism, Republicanism does not recognize any difference.”
And maybe he should have asked “how is that even possible?” Statistically speaking he is lying when he says they don’t agree on anything. That is exactly party-speak. And another symptom of how sick the GOP has become. They have polarized policy differences into an absolute insanity.
Ryan added, “I mean, come on, this isn’t even helping my party! Look at the evidence, Chuckmeister, I’m just really, really bad at this. Amirite? Amirite?”
The two then shared a high five, celebrating how their four combined first names possibly outnumbered their IQs.
At least his neighbor Ron Johnson can be comforted by the fact that he won’t have to go back to DC and face the music in 2017.
Well in reality Trump isn’t saying anything Republicans don’t actually endorse even if they don’t believe. He’s just saying it out loud and in plain English(edit: and most Trump voters were too dumb to realize the others were saying the same thing). That worked in the republican primary because a majority of Republican voters agree. It won’t in the general election because a majority of all voters don’t agree. Pretty simple really.
A brave Speaker Ryan weighs in on the alien invasion: “I for one welcome our new insect overlords.”
A challenging, yet entirely logical follow up question–that’s crazy talk! A show could lose Access™ for doing something like that.
For shame. Resign, resign. Vichy.
Not buff any more. Check out the bags under his eyes. Think maybe he’s loosing a little sleep?
I’m surprised it was Chuck Todd who asked the question, and I hope that he and others explore the theme of GOP partisan interest over national interest (goppioni). I expect it could be a rich field to plow.
There have been five House speakers who had major political issues with the president (and a member of their party)
-
Schuyler Colfax (Andrew Johnson)
-
Joe Cannon (Theodore Roosevelt)
-
Tip O’Neill (Jimmy Carter)
-
Champ Clark (Woodrow Wilson)
-
Nicholas Longworth (Hoover)
Barring something crazy, Paul Ryan would be the sixth speaker…
Lyin’ Ryan on full display!
Ayn Rand is so fond of her disciple!
