Paul Ryan, 'sickened' by comments, says Trump won't attend Wisconsin event

Source: Chicago Tribune

House Speaker Paul Ryan asked Donald Trump not to attend a campaign event with him Saturday in his home state of Wisconsin, according to two people familiar with the discussions, following the disclosure Friday of a 2005 video where the Republican presidential candidate makes lewd comments about women.

In a short statement issued moments after Ryan's, Trump said his running mate, Indiana Gov. Mike Pence, "will be representing me" at the Wisconsin event while he remained in New York to prepare for Sunday's town hall debate.

Pence, was "beside himself" and his wife was furious, a person familiar with their thinking told the Associated Press. That person spoke on the condition of anonymity, because they were not authorized to share the private discussion.

The difference is that now we have him red handed on a damning video.

Paul Ryan, you abandoned your "conservative principles" when you endorsed this hot mess of a candidate.

You KNEW he disrespected women.

You KNEW he mocked the disabled.

You KNEW he denigrated POW's.

You KNEW Trump has no conservative values and no religious convictions.

You CAN NOT AND WILL NOT TURN YOUR BACK ON THIS AND WALK AWAY CLEAN!

AND NEITHER WILL ALL THE OTHER REPUBLICAN RATS FLEEING YOUR SINKING SHIP!

It's what the R's deserve. Would not work with PBO. Wasn't he(Ryan) at that meeting in 2009 in DC they promised they would block everything. They can try to walk away from this but Trump's skunk skeet will trail them wherever they go.
