Paul Ryan gives unintentional support to Trump for 2024

Former relevant Republican and House Speaker Paul Ryan unintentionally gave former President Donald Trump a boost for his nomination in the 2024 presidential election.

In spite of his anemic popularity Ryan still seems to think that his words can make people take him seriously. Sure, in a way we do, but not in the way he uses them in order to influence us. 

Ryan was interviewed by WITI Milwaukee's Jason Calvi and threatened the country's GOP with his refusal to attend the upcoming 2024 Republican National Convention if President Trump was the nominee.  “It depends on who the nominee is. I’ll be here [in Milwaukee at the convention] if it’s someone not named Trump,” he warned the nation.

Well, that made everyone stop and think: if Ryan refuses to attend the convention if Trump gets the nod, why should I? Oh yeah, because Ryan won't be there. 

The ego on some of these politicians is breathtaking.

“You won’t show up if it’s Trump?” Calvi asked.

“I’m not interested in participating in that, no,” Ryan responded. He blamed Trump for the loss of Republican seats in the last few elections, and would have blamed him for the East Palestine train derailment and toxic chemical spill and fires if Calvi asked him whose fault was the disaster. Ryan claimed that if Trump ran again, Republicans would lose and Joe Biden would be shaking hands with memories.

“There are great people running. I know them all. They’re all pretty decent friends of mine, and so I think any one of these candidates that are thinking about getting in the race, if they get in the race, would be a great candidate.”

“I think we’re going to beat Joe Biden if we don’t run Donald Trump,” he added.

I don't fully disagree with Ryan. 

I believe that Trump did great things in his presidency, but I believe he is really a one-term president. Don't get me wrong, if Trump won the nomination, I would gladly vote for him, but Ryan may be correct in what he predicts. Trump drains the energy from the room--he's always "on," and he gets deeply involved in the daily minutiae of life.

But Ryan may be correct in his prediction, and even though Trump would be a much better POTUS than any Democrat, the media will be relentlessly attacking him and blaming him for everything they can.

At least Paul Ryan is inadvertently making the case to vote for Trump. It's like things the Left says--you know that when they say something, you can count on the opposite being true--it's known as the "ass backwards effect."

Here are some of the things people are saying about Paul Ryan's statement:

I was kinda on the fence about who I supported until that ringing endorsement for Trump.

There are few I despise more than Ryan.

Man, every time I start moving away from Trump, the world throws me one more reason to stick with him…

A Complete & Total Endorsement of @realDonaldTrump, love it!

 So if Trump gets the nod and Ryan doesn't attend the RNC Convention, there will be no need for tissues. People on social media were quite clear that Ryan is no longer relevant and don't care a fig what he says or does.

DNC wants to change the rules to keep Sanders from the nomination

"No, millionaires ah okay-it's the Wall Shhtreet
billionaires who need to share their money"

The dailywire.com reports the Democratic National Committee may be discussing a plan to keep Democratic presidential candidate Sen, Bernard Sanders (I-VT), a full-blown Communist, from winning the party's nomination. [Shades of Debbie Wasserman-Schultz and Donna Brazile.]

Politico reported:

“In conversations on the sidelines of a DNC executive committee meeting and in telephone calls and texts in recent days, about a half-dozen members have discussed the possibility of a policy reversal to ensure that so-called superdelegates can vote on the first ballot at the party’s national convention. Such a move would increase the influence of DNC members, members of Congress and other top party officials, who now must wait until the second ballot to have their say if the convention is contested.”

Politico said that a rule change would be difficult to implement, but said  “the talks reveal the extent of angst that many establishment Democrats are feeling on the eve of the Iowa caucuses.”

In other words, the left knows the country isn't yet ready to go as far left as they would like us to go and they don't want President Trump to have another four years to improve the economy through free trade.

Politico added:

“The decision to relegate superdelegates – now called ‘automatic delegates’ – to the second ballot in a contested convention consumed the DNC for nearly two years after the 2016 election. Superdelegates overwhelmingly sided with Hillary Clinton, infuriating Sanders’ supporters. The rule change was widely viewed as a major victory for the Democratic Party’s left flank. At the time, Perez called the delegate overhaul ‘historic,’ while progressive Democrats and many moderates lauded its appeal to young voters skeptical of centralized party power.”

Failed leftist Green Party lunatic presidential candidate Jill Stein responded to Politico’s report tweeting:

“Desperate DNC members consider rule change to let superdelegates vote on 1st ballot to stop Sanders. If the DNC rigs another election against its voters, it’ll be asking for biggest #DemExit yet by those who want an actually democratic party. #DNCRigging”

For once I agree with Stein. The Democratic Party seems to be eating its own tail and if things continue along this route, they will be in deep trouble with the less lunatic left and the moderates.

Akon, Kanye and NY Philharmonic mulling 2024 presidential run

The following is satire.

As their saying goes, "If Trump can do it, so can I." These are the sentiments of rapper Kanye West, musician Akon and Jaap van Zweden, the conductor of the New York Philharmonic.

The field of candidates may be huge, but they'll all be singing/playing the same tune.

When asked by Fox News why he wants to run, Kanye burst into rap and replied:

"I got me favor on my side, accept me as your political saviour.
Love me lots or love me less,
But dang, just love thy neighbor.
You can be what you wanna be
Mommas know my heart,
But I ain't no dang Swalwell swell,
Cause I don't hardly fart."

Upon announcing their decision to get into the 2024 race to MSNBC, the NY Philharmonic conductor, Jaap van Zweden lifted his baton as the group began a hearty rendition of Jean-Joseph Mouret's Rondeau from Sinfone de Fanfares," in the hopes of getting the votes from music aficionados. "This is why I am going to win," van Zweden said, adding that he would have the entire Philharmonic in his administration.

Speaking on “The Real” Monday, the “Don’t Matter” singer said that a 2024 presidential run “might be possible.”

“I know what the issues are. As a person, as an immigrant, as a black man, as whatever you want to call it, I kinda know or feel like I know that I can take the country and move it forward. I really believe so,” Akon said, admitting he knows nothing about foreign affairs, politics, the U.S. Constitution, law and the three branches of government, but he said the public "ain't gonna care."

Akon, whose real name is Aliaune Damala Bouga Time Puru Nacka Lu Lu Lu Badara Akon Thiam is famous for his second hit, "Smack That." The first stanza goes like this:

"I feel you creepin', I can see you from my shadow
Wanna jump up in my Lamborghini Gallardo
Maybe go to my place and just kick it like Tae Bo
And possibly bend you over
Look back and watch me
Smack that, all on the floor
Smack that, give me some more
Smack that, 'till you get sore
Smack that, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Smack that, all on the floor
Smack that, give me some more
Smack that, 'till you get sore
Smack that, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh."

What a beautiful visual.

The rapper and "musician" was born in St. Louis, Missouri, but he spent most of his childhood in Senegal and has often referred to it as his hometown, which makes him a perfect candidate for the progressives in the Democratic Party, who see every other place as better than the USA.

Some pro-abortion progressives consider him a musical genius.

“I need him [Kanye] to run," Akon said. "I want him to because it’s like this — Kanye’s not crazy. He’s just been awakened. My belief, because from a spiritual state, I just feel like he’s awake now. He’s [the] most amazing marketer in the world. He understands his audience — but he’s definitely not crazy.

“If he does run, it’s great for the culture,” Akon continued. “Now, whether or not you think he’s fit is another thing, that’s why you got me as another choice, onnaconna I ain't crazy too."
