[Paul] Ryan rocks Republicans with retirement

https://www.politico.com/story/2018/04/11/ryan-to-retire-after-this-year-514543

Republicans are jumping ship at record numbers in face a likely #BlueWave.

 

Whatever will little Eddy do now? Run EPA? Take the nod for the next open SCOTUS opening? Or just retire into obscurity in WI?

 

Just another swamp rat drained.

Good riddance.

 

Add another one to the list.

Florida GOP Rep. Dennis Ross to retire

If only we could get them all to quit.

 

What percentage of politicians that are not named "donald trump" are part of the "swamp?"

 

Hopefully he does the right thing and fires Devin Nunes first.

 

Do you suppose that having written this that your intent is any different then than those on the right who are demanding the either Sessions or Trump fire Mueller? You sound the same to me.

 

Donald Trump is doing that for us.

 

Exactly.

At this point:

Only Has-Been Mentally-Deficient Political Hacks (with no prospects, present or future) want anything to do with Trump.

 

I'm not going to waste my time doing the adding and subtracting, but anyone who has held office more than 10 years needs to take a hike. If we had term limits, 90% of our problems would be solved. So take that to mean around 90% are the swamp rats.

Seriously...we limit the most important job in the universe to 8 years and it isn't even the job that has the real power. You figure it out...

 

When a politician resigns you know that there is a scandal in the wind and they're trying to hide it.

 

Except for Gowdy, I haven't seen a single one of these "retirees" we couldn't do better without. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen has a 66% rating from the ACU. Good riddance. With any luck, we could see a "maroon wave" this November, with conservatives winning elections to the House across the country. Probably a bit much to hope for, but I can dream. Heck, all they'd have to do is say they support restricting immigration and they'd win every election.

 

Term limits just means the crooks will have to work harder to make graft and corruption pay faster. Trump is the perfect example.

 

Its called draining the swamp

I’m sure there is a lobbyist wet rock waiting for ryan somewhere

 

People say that yet from what I have seen this is costing Trump WAY more then helping. Lawyer fees, finding new lawyers, connections, family strife, the constant harassment of his opponents every day in the media. If he got into this for profit then that is a failure. President is a crap job ask Obama. all you get is your picture in the history books and a lot of grey hair.

 

Well on Trump's case I suspect the Russians will eventually reward him for destroying American Democracy.

 

I think I will wait to see if Mueller even finds anything. To think Trump is working for the Russians is like believing Obama was from Kenya.

 

Oh, no, you mean Trump and the Republicans lied.

 

I would say most definitely, only a complete maroon would believe Obama was from Kenya.

 

Well a lot of people on this forum appeared to believe it! Along with a sizable proportion of Republican voters.

 

And Trump will be under it!

 

Ryan is Dumb as a Stump.

Nobody cares about the Eddie Munster wannabe.

Paul Ryan?

 

The bigger the lie, man

 

Good point. Believe that is the Trump Bible.
