He didn't distinguish himself as separate from Trumpy. He was a toady. He did not dignify himself for any potential base of supporters. If he runs, he'll drop out for lack of support, lack of funds. It's fitting. He was a real waste of time and resources, a real loser as Speaker. He had no initiatives worth a dime. He had no distinguishing achievements. Nada. Let him run.

"he'll drop out for lack of support, lack of funds"

I'm not saying its a bright idea, but I think he has the right mixture of brains to hubris to be a Republican candidate.

Can’t wait for his tRump nick name.

was driving the Wiener mobile one summer.

Because Republicans don't believe in that sort of thing?

Especially after Mueller drops. He's complicit in everything. I think they're all going to be generationally radioactive soon. The new Third Rail.

That's my take. He looks and sounds beaten.

Resign or face indictment.

He won’t run for anything.

Just my guess

He is widely recognized as a small defeated weasel of a man who is widely unpopular. He is flush with dirty money but it's unlikely he will be taken seriously in the long run. If he's lucky in twenty years he will be running a car dealership in Janesville.

My opinion.

big corporate boards, or heading straight to K Street for massive Lobbyrama.

Why not run for Prez?

When I get depressed, I rewatch his VP debate with Joe Biden. It's one of the most satisfying beatdowns of a moron ever televised.
