Report: Donald Trump furious with Paul Ryan, blaming him as GOP braces for rough election night

Source: Milwaukee Journal Sentinel

Even before the polls had closed, reports were already emerging that President Donald Trump was furious with retiring House Speaker Paul Ryan — and blaming him for not raising enough money for House Republicans.

A source told CNN that Trump was "really angry" at the Janesville Republican about "everything," the network reported Tuesday night.

The report comes days after Trump attacked Ryan over birthright citizenship, saying the outgoing speaker should be focused on the midterm elections and not disagreeing with him.


"Paul Ryan should be focusing on holding the Majority rather than giving his opinions on Birthright Citizenship, something he knows nothing about!" Trump tweeted Wednesday. "Our new Republican Majority will work on this, Closing the Immigration Loopholes and Securing our Border!"


But Ryan on Monday sought to downplay their dispute.

When asked on Fox News about the clash, Ryan said, "It's all good."

It’s S.O.P. for Cheetolini to claim 100% of the credit when things go right, and point the finger at everyone but himself when things go wrong.

At least maybe this will remind other Republicans in the future how he “rewards” those who throw in their lot with him.
