Like any GOP Representative or Senator gives a fig anymore about what Ryan wants!
In an article, Ryan was gutted for his ineptness in not doing a thing since he became Speaker. No spending bills have advanced, his caucus is in tatters and heās generally become a pariah in his own House due to weak-kneed leadership.
Kindaā like a shorter, less tanned and younger John Boehnerā¦less the red wine and cigarettes! LOL
You forgot the āorangeā look.
Yes, Iām sure your constituents will see and fondly remember you holding Trumpās arm up in victory. Please do that.
I think I can say for sure John McCain wont be voting in the presidential election in November.
He hates Cruz and Trump dissed his service to the country.
āIāve never heard that before. People will make the decision on what they want to do,ā Ryan responded. āI think if you were planning on going to the convention, you should go.ā
If he hasnāt heard that by now, heās more clueless than that deer-in-the-deadlights look of his gives. And the conditional āif you were planning on goingā says it all. Plenty of trapdoor to wiggle out.
This is going to be a disaster.
heās just looking for company at his table so he can pretend itās the big boys table and show that he might actually be able to accomplish somethingā¦
āIāve never heard that before. People will make the decision on what they want to do,ā Ryan responded.
Multiple media outlets reported Mark Kirk's statement he would not attend the GOP convention. Similarly Kelly Ayotte's reticence was widely reported. John McCain's recusal was in the news everywhere also.
Either Ryan is lying or he dwells in a bunker.
"When CNN mentioned that Republicans up for re-election might be worried about being tied to the presidential nominee, Ryan replied, āOh, I donāt think so.ā "
No it couldnāt be that. Iām sure itās just that they just canāt find the time in their oh-so-busy schedules to pencil in the Republican Convention, especially on such short notice.
I see he subscribes to the Kasich āItāll be fun!ā line of thought.
, it could be something youāll remember the rest of your life,
Sorta like:
being caught in the middle of a gunfight between meth addled gangs
being abducted by a serial killer
being caught in the blades of a thrasher machine
etc, etc.
If this was Tom Delay, GOP reps might have second thoughts about playing hooky. A warning from Paul Ryan? Theyāll leave a slightly more elaborate out-of-office note on the e-mail.
Whatever Ryan says, do the oppositeā¦
A few Republican senators up for re-election in 2016 have said they may not attend the July convention, and CNN asked Ryan if he was fine with that.
"Iāve never heard that before. People will make the decision on what they want to do," Ryan responded. "I think if you were planning on going to the convention, you should go."
Well, gee, Speaker Ryan, thatās about as vague of a non-answer as Iāve ever heard. Seriously ā I think that when the sun sets this evening that will usher in the night. And when it rains, the streets get wet.
āIt could be a great historical exercise.ā
Or, an hysterical exorcism.
Or something.
For whatever reason it had never before occurred to me that Speaker Ryan was clueless before. How did I miss it?
My first impression was that he was frightened at the prospect of being all alone at the convention with nary a colleague in sight, but his wishy-washy response (considerably less emphatic than the tenor of the headline would suggest) eliminated that possibility from consideration.
It could be a great historical exercise. I mean, it could be something youāll remember the rest of your lifeā¦
You betcha!
Ah Yes!
Princess Elsa should require all Republican lawmakers sign a contract to attend the convention.
Gee, GOPers who donāt want to be GOPers.
How sadā¦
