        Not really. He was a Koch puppet. It’s not that hard to follow explicit instructions.

        Problem with POTUS is that he often picks saboteurs, and incompetents. But still the best since JFK #Trump2020

        Even being a Trump supporter, I admit that this was a mistake on his part.

        I think Ryan did well with the tax reform legislation but that’s about it.

        Of course because the establishment’s special interests wanted it. The tax reform was a Wall Street and corporate wet dream, for average Americans it was a temporary and small appeasement to seem like it was for us in any way.

        Kind of an ironic statement coming from Trump.

        @POTUS himself admits "I'm new at this" (politics) - so, how fast is he learning - e.g. from 11/6/18 debacle? My take: Unless he stops relying on #RNC-advice (& starts listening to @freedomcaucus) he & we will get (at best) repeat of #RINOcongress2017 on 11/4/20. #BringBannonBack

        As a REPUBLICAN Speaker of the House, Trump HAS to lay out his agenda to whoever is in that role. Trump doesn't get a vote for Speaker.

        Presidents can’t insource or outsource legislation. Legislation is the exclusive prerogative of Congress. And the Speaker of House is the spicket...nothing flows through unless they permit it. Ryan was an obstructionist to Trump just as is Pelosi now

        Trump made a major political mistake w Ryan who deliberately sabotaged his agenda. Trump was new to DC, surrounded himself with Establishment advisors, Priebus, etal. Incompetent WH Legislative relations office. Where is Infrastructure?
