1. well he sounds sane at least

[Thekaspervote]

2. Finally he stands up for democracy..what's wrong with the rest of these ninnys

[gratuitous]

3. The same thing all sane-sounding Republicans have in common

The word "former" in their title. Apparently on their way out the door and headed for the post-office gravy train, they get their spines back.

4. Don't forget Ryan was one of the Con's enablers, and once he got the GOP-drafted tax bill passed

he jumped ship to save his legacy. His speaking out now - out of office - is too little too late. He is as much to blame as the remaining GOP enablers still in office. Ryan is a spineless, self-serving snake like the rest of them.

8. And that's the truth!

5. Paul Ryan says @JoeBiden is the "entirely legitimate" president-elect.

6. Ryan's positioning himself for 2024

I've said this a number of times. Ryan wants to be president and he left the Trump shit show so he wouldn't be soiled.

He was a radical right-winger in the House and he's a lot smarter than Trump or Cruz or Cotton, etc.

We should watch Ryan's moves carefully.

10. He definitely knows how to lie without a flinch.

Lyin' Ryan will fit right in with The Republicans.

11. Maybe, but many in the base will be shopping the crazies.

13. I don't see Ryan making any of the moves consistent with another public campaign

He has become a major mover on corporate boards and is pocketing big pay checks, including as a Fox board member.

He has a young family and I suspect wants weekends with his family and wants to be rich.

[AmericanCanuck]

7. He, like Romney knows that Trump will be tarred and feathered

and the clowns that supported Trump will not have a prayer in the 2024 sweepstakes.

9. The train left the station mr. a-hole ryan, you know, the train your party built.

Nice that he said something but who is listening? trump base? Q brained congresswoman, whatever her name is? Like I said, if vomit could crawl, it's name would be trump! Now I want to also include, if vomit could crawl, it's name would be the republican party!

[grantcart]

12. Ryan is on the board of directors of Fox

[duforsure]

14. Ryan doesn't understand,

The republican party is dead, and gone after fascist trump has taken full control of it now. The rule of law no longer applies to them , and the Constitution is only as good as the people in power in our government want to go by it, and these fascist don't.
