Paul Ryan Submits to Donald Trump
That didn't take too long.
me, it’s a question of how to move ahead on the ideas that I—and my
House colleagues—have invested so much in through the years. It’s not

And Ryan submitted a statement to his hometown paper explaining his decision. Essentially, the reason was this: We really don't like Hillary Clinton, and Trump will likely sign into law bills passed by a Republican Congress. Ryan said nothing about Trump's temperament, ideas, or abilities. And this makes it official: This is now Trump's Republican Party. The submission of the GOP establishment to Trump is complete. The fellow that Marco Rubio denounced as a con man has forced the leaders of the party to kneel before him, principles be damned. The deal is done. The ring has been kissed. On with the show.
