“I think Paul Ryan is soon to be ‘Cantored,’ as in Eric Cantor,” Palin said in an interview...



Paul Ryan apparently poked a Mama Grizzly when he failed to voice support for Donald Trump late last week.

Sarah Palin told CNN’s Jake Tapper that she’ll support House Speaker Ryan’s challenger in the Wisconsin primary for his seat.

“I think Paul Ryan is soon to be ‘Cantored,’ as in Eric Cantor,” Palin said in an interview broadcast Sunday on State of the Union. Cantor was the Republican House majority leader who was upset in a 2014 primary in Virginia by Dave Brat.

A Mama Grizzly, Palin has said, is a conservative woman with common sense. She told Tapper that Ryan’s career was toast. Ryan announced Thursday that he wasn’t ready to endorse Trump, the all-but-certain Republican nominee. Ryan and Trump are scheduled to meet in Washington on Thursday.

Maybe the Wisconsin knuckledraggers in Ryan's district will find her message compelling.
