The GOP’s best budget guy, Paul Ryan is a Trump supporter. Ryan’s announcement occurred weeks after Trump says he would be able to get rid of the nation’s more than $19 trillion national debt over a period of eight years (link below). Big ideas guy Newt Gingrich is a supporter too.
Rock on Donald. Your coronation is only a couple of weeks away. The GOP’s best and brightest sucking up to your purveyance of nonsense says more about them than it does about you. You’re tapped into the GOP’s greatest strength, a bubble base pandered to by its “leaders”.

What do you know. No charges will be brought against Hillary after 110 classified emails were found after she lied about it. Some people really are above the law.
Sorry TheGreatPumpkin, you’ll just have to keep waiting in that cold pumpkin patch another year.
Well, David, on behalf of The Great Pumpkin, I was certainly wrong. Too bad for me. I’m ready for all f the shots my detractors want to put forth. Yall have certainly earned the right bust me up a bit. LOL! Let me say this for the last negative comment I’ll have for Hilly on this: While not a criminal matter now, I still think this is a negative issue that Trump will continue to use against her. I’m expecting those Repubs that didn’t show up for Romney to be upset about this and a good majority of those missing four years ago will show up in November. Anyway, I’m expecting shots from Drew and all of you guys! Make them funny, it will make my pain less!
I’m not saying that I thought someone would go to jail or even deserved to go to jail over this. I knew nothing would happen to Hillary, but I will say I thought there would be a slap on the wrist and someone like Huma who was close to Hillary would take the fall. In take the fall I mean something as small as pay a fine.
It really does boggle my mind after listening to the first half of Comey’s remarks that nothing came from it.
Werent those classified retroactively or am i wrong on that?
Nope. A number of them were classified at the time they were received and sent according to Comey. If you haven’t done so, watch Comey’s press conference. If you listen to the first 5 minutes you would believe that they were about to throw Hillary under the jail. It did not sound good at all.
Then Comey basically says, “well, we have never had a situation like this before so we have decided not to press charges.” Please watch it then tell me what you think he’s going to say after the first few minutes.
ah. thanks for the explanation. will watch when i get home tonight.
“…I’m expecting shots from Drew and all of you guys!” Just the guys? Really? Don’t make me take away your blue blanket.
Wait… I clicked Noway but ended in Lea’s feed… hmm
LOLOLOL! Go ahead Ellynn!!! Hell, Sally already left me about noon! Something about my wasting her time…
I hope everyone woke up this morning with the same number of toes and fingers they had yesterday. I’ve heard of very few accidents in state, nothing to match the exploding backyard cannon in Iowa. http://kwqc.com/2016/07/04/iowa-woman-killed-when-homemade-cannon-explodes/
While the FBI investigation did not result in criminal charges it sure perpetuates the image of a lying and irresponsible Hilly.
