Ya mean, just like 45 said he wasn’t considering pardoning Arpaio, but the paperwork is already drawn up.

Geez.

Could anyone produce any evidence that President Trump gives a damn about Paul Ryan’s opinion on anything, anything at all?

More weasel words from this spineless fraud. The correct answer is “It is not in our interest to shut down the government, and President Trump can go pound sand.” Trump still labors under the misapprehension that he was elected Emperor of the United States, and has no idea as to the limitations on his powers of office. Please stop coddling his fantasies and make it clear that the Congress decides whether or not to fund the government, not him. If Ryan bent any further backwards, he could touch the floor.

Ryan to carjacker: Let’s be reasonable here. I don’t think it is in either of our interests for me to hand my car over to you.

Ryan to murderer: Hold up. Shouldn’t you think this through before you bring that axe down? We both have a lot to lose here.

Ryan to angry town hall audience: Does anyone have a nice question for me?

“I don’t think anyone’s interested in having a shutdown. I don’t think it’s in our interest to do so,” Ryan said. “I don’t think you have to choose between the two.”

Exactly, This is a false dichotomy, why can’t we have both: a shutdown AND a wall.

Much as he’s rightly loathed, you have to admit he’s developing a talent for hilarious understatement. I’d suggest he become the hesitant, stammering straight man in a comedy duo, but with the Donnie and Paul Show a surprise smash hit he’s pretty much already there.

Trump on Tuesday night suggested he would push to tie funding for his proposed border wall to a government spending bill Congress must pass in the fall to avert a shutdown.

Draft your fricking budget and override a Trump veto. Sure, it'll take Dems to override, but you either choose your country or you choose Trump. If you can't make peace with the Dems you'll deserve whatever clusterfuck develops for failing to tell Trump to piss off.
