POLITICAL EARTHQUAKE

Now that earth has moved with the dropping out of Cruz and Kasich, Ryan isn't comfortable.

  1. I am personally STAGGERED by how deceived I was about about Mr. Ryan and what he really stood for.

    His stances on the border, budget, and now this are revelatory. If not for Trump I would have believed this guy is for real.

    Who is there who can even BE a leader of the republicans in the house?

    Maybe there can be none, because the GOP is done.The factions in the party are irreconcilable

    Ryan is just ONE MORE hack mouthing crap in his own personal club for growth.
