Dump Trump

After a week in which the presumptive [GOP] nominee appalled many colleagues with his reaction to a shooting massacre in Orlando, House speaker Paul Ryan made clear he would not try to obstruct any rebellion against Trump by delegates in Cleveland.

[...]

He added: “I see my role, now that he’s got the plurality [of delegates], he actually won, is pretty much a ceremonial position. But the last thing I am going to do is weigh in and tell delegates what to do.”

[...]

“They write the rules, they make the decisions,” he told NBC’s Meet the Press. “All I want to make sure is to make sure it is done above board, clearly, honestly and by the rules.”

You think that's going to appease his supporters? If that's your plan, I hope you have a bullet proof body suit to wear on the floor of the convention.

And, hey, you endorsed him.
Ryan stressed that he would lead no revolt himself, and said he was pressing Trump to change his tune and to “run a campaign that we can all be proud of, that is inclusive and aspirational”.
And on that morning, Satan will be skating to work.

...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
