Trump, Ryan, Graham, and McCarthy all get together and play pickleball on the weekends.

Paul Ryan is a goofball but he did write and pass the tax reform that is Trump’s lasting legislative accomplishment. It really depends on what DeSantis meant. Does he mean he wants to be a weird weeny guy or does he mean he wants to pass conservative policies?

This post is over 6 months old. I don't believe Ron even started his preliminary unofficial presidential candidate world tour, aka "book tour" yet.

Did a great job when he voted the way I wanted. He just did not vote the way I wanted enough.

Gumbro: "Here's DeSantis talking nicely about Paul Ryan. DeSantis is a GOPe stooge".

Others: "Here's a video of Trump praising Paul Ryan. In fact, here are several"

Gumbro: "Did a great job when he voted the way I wanted. He just did not vote the way I wanted enough."

So you need to decide Gumbro, was Paul Ryan good or bad? Seems you can't reconcile your hypocrisy.

So i'm assuming you don't like DeSantis because, like Ryan, he was in favor of privatizing SS and Medicare? I mean you sycophants did attack DeSantis for advocating for this.

So is it the conservatism that grinds at you?

DeSantis went even further than Paul Ryan on changing Social Security and Medicare
As a congressional candidate, DeSantis repeatedly expressed support for Rep. Paul Ryan's proposed overhaul to entitlement programs by privatizing aspects of Medicare and Social Security, as CNN's Andrew Kaczynski and Em Steck uncovered earlier this week.

Congressman DeSantis went even further than that position. As Josh Barro wrote, DeSantis supported the even more drastic Republican Study Committee's budget proposal that aimed to balance the federal budget in four years, instead of Ryan's decade. To achieve such cuts, as the Committee for the Responsible Budget detailed back then, required changing Medicare to a partially private system by 2019 and raising the retirement age to 70. It would have also increased the full retirement age for Social Security to 70 as well.


Remember when Trump attacked him on this? I member...

quote:

It seems everyone wants to go after Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis.

Both President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump took shots at him just this week, even though the popular Republican governor has yet to announce a presidential campaign.

These early attempts to define DeSantis also underline how one of this biggest liabilities may be his past as a rank-and-file conservative in Congress before his meteoric rise as a Purple state governor.

Here's the link. It's business insider so it's a hit piece on DeSantis' conservatism, which ironically, Trump agrees with Business Insider.

I really liked Ryan in the early 2010s and I still fully support his attempt to reform Social Security. Unfortunately, he lost his way with OMB but to act like he had no redeeming qualities is wrong.

No, this is you attempting to divert, at this very moment. Yet again, i caught you being a jackass.

Explain to us, why did you post that link about DeSantis regarding Paul Ryan. What was the purpose of your post?
