Donald Trump: Ryan’s Plan Is A ‘Death Wish’ For GOP

..............

This morning on Fox and Friends, perennial presidential candidate Donald Trump lambasted the GOP over the Ryan plan. Calling it a “death wish,” Trump noted that the plan’s “horrendous” timing delivered the GOP “an impossible loss” and will cause serious losses in future elections:

TRUMP: Hey look, I’m looking at the Republicans and seeing things that are like they have a death wish. Whether its the Ryan plan — which is a death wish. For him to have brought this plan out at this time. Why doesn’t allow Obama — you know these are not good business people or these are not good chess players — why doesn’t he allow Obama come out first, why does he have to come out with a plan? You know, he’s a nice guy and all that but that’s irrelevant. This plan caused a loss in an area that never loses for a Republican, you know that, in upstate New York. An impossible loss.


GRETCHEN CARLSON: But I’m stunned by your reaction to that because you also are a guy who tells it like it is, and so one would think that you would agree with Paul Ryan’s plan because some people say he’s the only person who’s telling it like it is.

TRUMP: The fact is that whether you agree with the plan or not, his timing was horrendous. … You don’t come out with a plan, have all your friends vote on it, and now half of those guys are going to lose their elections.

14. You have to agree with Donald Trump
for once. The Repubican Party is self-destructing by self-immolation.

5. She's worse than a Stepford...
She's what you'd get if a Stepford wife was bred with a Moonie.

4. Shhh! Donald, don't let the secret out.
The conservanazis think every citizen is with them on this. Let them push it hard and make it their party platform along with tax breaks for the rich and subsidies for oil companies.
