I really think that if a sincere Paul Ryan had pledged absolute loyalty to Trump and said that the party is but a tool for Trump's glorification, y'all would be in this thread going

"Finally, he's un-cucked himself. It's a start at least."

Paul Ryan is in the unenviable position of presiding over a base that has literally no idea what it wants while simultaneously having no clue how government functions.

Since when? We have been electing these GOPe jackasses for years only to have them provide rear-guard action for the most Liberal politicians to every run the American government.

Over the past 8 years, the GOPe has PROVEN itself to be an elitist, center-left party that only cares about remaining in the club and not representing the people. The GOPe uses Conservative America like the DNC uses people of color. Pander for their vote, then f*ck 'em.

Ryan literally says that the party is about ideas, not a single person



I checked the ballot... All mine had on it were names. The candidate name of the person that were chosen to represent the party.

Not sure how it works in your world but whenever someone wins the nomination of either party it is generally recognized that the winner of the nomination has "ideas" that the majority of the party voters like better than the "ideas" of the other candidates.

Furthermore... I can assure you that the GOP and the way they have conducted themselves over the last 8 years by breaking campaign promises, approving borrowing, approving deficit spending, and generally not doing everything within their power to stop some of the Obama agenda... per the GOP "ideas". Laughable.

This isn't about the GOP. This about about the gutless liars that lie and don't keep their own promises. Paul Ryan, Kasich, Bush, etc... can all go frick themselves. They aren't representative of the GOP party. Today's GOP isn't even representative of the real GOP party.

This isn't Reagan's party and it isn't even close.

And your idea of "how government functions" is what? Greasing the right palms within the Clinton Foundation so that you are granted an audience with the puppet masters?

I'm sure some would say something like that, but his stunts and double-talk make him look cucked and cuckoo to many. It's actually quite pathetic.

Right, so I'll mark you down as

"Ryan should have pledged absolute loyalty to Trump and acknowledged that the GOP is a mere messenger for his majesty, DJT"

Again....would Ryan have said the same thing if Romney or McCain were the candidate on the POTUS ballot today?

It was his cuck way of staying loyal to Mitt.

Yes well, there is another prominent "Republican" right now with decades of double talk in his background who also appears crazy to many.

And thus, we're at an impasse.

Campaign donations to elected officials is a decent way to maybe get an audience with them when you have an issue arise, but it was never a viable strategy for landing a meeting with Sec. Clinton.

If Donald had the balls, he would totally humiliate Paul Ryan on his way out. He may not have the stamina, though.

Not at all. However, Ryan ACCEPTED his position. He was not forced into it by some law.

He could have resigned it instead of doing what he has done. I wouldn't have minded that at all and would have respected him for it.

Listen... either he is a man of principle or not. He took a step in and out and in and out and in and out... throughout the election. That doesn't scream principled to me.

Didn't ask for him to be loyal to Trump. He could have been loyal to the party nominee. He could have been loyal to the people of his state that helped select Trump. Once again... he is in a voluntary position. If Trump posed such a moral dilemma then he could have made the decision to resign. Guess it wasn't that bad after all....

I am starting to think this guy must have been a regular on pedophile island. Ryan has something to hide!
