LOL. Well, Trump walked right into that one.

Ryan either is better at game theory than he has demonstrated up til now or The Donald just handed Ryan a gift.

Mr Ryan proving once again republicans have no honor! If Ryan had any dignity left he would actually at this point say …" I am resigning my position as RNC leader at the 2016 Republican Convention in Cleveland and I will not be attending." Then I think Ryan should actually endorse The Half Term Governor from Alaska the quitter from Wasilla… the one the only Sarah Palin!!!

So many Republicans are bailing on the clownvention in Cleveland that Drumpf could have the shindig on his plane.

Nah, I think he’s dropping blotter acid. And if he honestly believes anyone on this site thinks he is anything less than a fucking troll, then I think he may also be mainlining some very pure smack.

That, or they’ve all gone completely bonkers and are now just ripping out the seams willy-nilly while being all-to-willing to shred their garments in an early mourning ritual of grief for a dying party.

Are Kim Jong-un of North Korea and Donald Trump related, by any chance? They both have so many of the same personality traits: hot-headed, immature, uneven, demanding, irresponsible, bullying . . . and they both have unusual hair.

Another tough republican that stands up for what he believes in…in this case he believes in taking the easy way out…

Why step in stuff if you don’t have to, right?

Not exactly leadership material, huh?

Aren’t we always hearing from this cat that Obama acts like a king, is so divisive, lawless, hates the Constitution?

Oh yeah, it’s him and all the rest of these turds. Good times.

Don’t know for sure but I think Ryan may be calling Trump’s bluff. If Trump demands establishment favorite Ryan step down as chairman, it’s gonna get a whole lot harder for Trump to get the establishment money bags to finance his campaign.

77

I think he’s already been doing a lot of those things. He doesn’t seem to be doing anything else.

Good move by Paul Ryan. Run as far away as possible from this convention.

Trump doesn’t want Ryan to quit. Trump’s game was to push Ryan around and make him do his bidding. I guess I give Ryan credit for figuring out that much, that it’s possible to call Trump’s bluff.

I wish Obama was the king. I think he’d make a great king. To quote Mel Brooks

“Its good to be the King”
