Paul Ryan made the decision to sit out a run for reelection on January 3rd of this year for the first time since he took office way back in 1999. And now Tim Alberta’s new book “American Carnage” has revealed that Ryan’s somewhat sudden decision to leave the government has more than a little to do with none other than Donald J. Trump.
The former House Speaker revealed to the author that his decision to retire from Congress was his “escape hatch” from having to deal with Donald Trump any further and said that Donald’s presidency is on a quick downhill slide.
According to copies obtained and published by the Washington Post, Ryan evidently isn’t a big fan of Trump, though he couldn’ve fooled me what with all of the disgusting ass-kissing he took part in while holding the position of House Speaker.
“We’ve gotten so numbed by it all,” Ryan stated. “Not in government, but where we live our lives, we have a responsibility to try and rebuild. Don’t call a woman a ‘horse face.’ Don’t cheat on your wife. Don’t cheat on anything. Be a good person. Set a good example.”

Paul went on to explain to Alberta that Donald was completely clueless to the inner workings of the government when he took his undeserved place in the White House in 2017.
“I told myself I gotta have a relationship with this guy to help him get his mind right,” Ryan said. “Because I’m telling you, he didn’t know anything about government… I wanted to scold him all the time.”
The former House Speaker said that he and many others tried hard to keep Donald from “making bad decisions.”
“All the time,” Ryan stated. “We helped him make much better decisions, which were contrary to kind of what his knee-jerk reaction was. Now I think he’s making some of these knee-jerk reactions.”
Alberta also noted that Trump views Paul Ryan as a “fucking Boy Scout.”
This is like the dude that tells the barbershop he loves the cut then writes a shitty Yelp review when he gets home.
