That's not working out for him right now.

When he loses, the resulting temper tantrum from his supporters may just rip the Republican Party to shreds.

Yep.

He's the GOP's highest ranking office holder and he's up for election in 4 weeks. And the GOP "base" includes a bunch who don't care for him, even though at this time last year he was their golden boy.

He does that "deer in the headlights" thing pretty well.

There is something almost heartbreakingly pathetic about your naivete ...
He's a billionaire. LOL Trump fans are delusional.

Ryan is looking for packing boxes, anyone know where he can gets some to pack up his office in a few weeks, he would appreciate it.

Paul Ryan is an extreme conservative and yet not extreme enough. The RNC is disappearing.

He's "stolen" enough $ in that he can "get them" himself.

I once respected him, but this election was great in that it REALLY showed many in congress true horrid colors.

I hope that the dem candidate wins in WI (even though I mostly vote non-dem).

I believe "what's right is right" no matter who.

Ryan has done - time to go imo as with any "R" or "D" in that "club".

I'm with you: I hope the Dems win a lot of seats. Here's hoping the next speaker is Nancy Pelosi again!

That's a "Hilarious" reply. You evidently think a Hillary Socialist State is better? What do you call a Country where Hillary is the Leader and controls the Media, the Justice Department, and the FBI, and has a Foundation that was set up to launder Money, and wants open Borders? Bet you have no idea, right?


The soap they use to "Brainwash" some folks is way too strong.

I hope it does. Its time for a complete rebuild. The Liberals and the "Never Trump" Republicans, think that if Hillary wins, or Trump is forced out, we will all go sit by the fire, hold hands, and sing songs of togetherness. They are delusional. Its will get worse, as Hillary screws over everyone, trying to impose the Policies she promised Bernie, and her own self serving Policies that will bankrupt America, while filling her Foundation with "Donations." The majority of this Country do not want to be Socialists, and give everyone that wants it, a free ride.
