Priebus furious at Trump for not endorsing Ryan: report

Source: The Hill

Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus is furious with Donald Trump's refusal to endorse House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) or Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), NBC News reported.

Priebus is “apoplectic” over Trump’s remarks and called campaign chairman Paul Manafort and other top staffers to voice his “extreme displeasure,” NBC reported, citing a source in the GOP.

Trump said in an interview with The Washington Post on Tuesday that he is "not quite there yet" in terms of endorsing Ryan. The terminology echoed what Ryan said of Trump in May, before the Speaker relented and endorsed Trump for president.

He also tweeted praise of Ryan’s primary opponent, Paul Nehlen, on Monday.

You could imagine Trump's glee in trolling Paul Ryan with the exact same language used by Ryan with respect to Trump.

The reason Trump won't endorse corporate hack Ryan is the same reason I wouldn't endorse him.

Ryan sells bull 24/7.

Fairy numbers to distract us, while we pile trillions in debt on our children.

Good for Trump.

By the way trying to take away my Obamacare is attempted murder in my book.

happening in Wisconsin. Ryan is in trouble and Walker is losing in the Courts daily. Packers fans are putting their Beers down and starting to pay attention and that is scaring the crap out of the Rethugs. This is a Salvage Operation.
