Feud (yet another)

President Donald Trump extended his tongue-lashing of former Speaker Paul Ryan, telling reporters on Friday: “The only success Paul Ryan had was the time that he was with me.”

“He was a baby,” Trump said. “He didn’t know what the hell he was doing.”

“For him to be going out and opening his mouth is pretty incredible,” Trump declared.

Takes one to know one.
Trump’s comments follow the release of excerpts from a new book by POLITICO Magazine's chief political correspondent, Tim Alberta, in which Ryan said Trump “didn’t know anything about government” and that he wanted to “scold him all the time.”

Trump kicked off his retaliation on Thursday evening, tweeting that Ryan was a "lame duck failure" who lost the majority because of "poor leadership and bad timing."

The president revived the attacks on Friday, accusing Ryan of being inept at fundraising, not being aggressive towards Democrats while Nancy Pelosi has handed out subpoenas “like cookies,” and losing control of the House. The president then claimed that Ryan was shouted offstage at an event in Wisconsin.

“I introduced him and they booed him off the stage,” the president claimed. “10,000 people!” he added. Trump then mentioned that Wisconsin was a state that he had won.
Christ. Baby. You're both asshats.

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