Ryan, who served as Mitt Romney’s vice presidential running mate in 2012, further stressed that while he doesn’t know where the Democrats will be for the next State of the Union, he’ll be “on the rostrum with Vice President Mike Pence and President Donald Trump”.

House Speaker Paul Ryan said Monday he doesn’t see eye-to-eye with Donald Trump when it comes to politics, but he stressed the party needs to get behind the presumptive presidential nominee.
Ryan played to the Pennsylvania audience by waving a Pittsburgh Steelers “Terrible Towel”, saying that his willingness to betray his own Green Bay Packers shows “how much he wants to win this election” and also how important Pennsylvania could be.
“We started this year with ruptures”.
Meanwhile, Ryan claimed the GOP was “the great alternative party”, while largely avoiding any sort of specifics on the “Better Way” agenda that he was expected to discuss in his speech. “Our candidates will be giving their all, their utmost, and every one of us has got to do the same”, said Ryan.
New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie as he listens to Gov. Mike Pence’s speech at the Republican National Convention. “It’s one or the other and I know where I want to go”, he said during a CNN town hall last week.
Ryan is set to speak sometime between 8:15 and 8:40 p.m. Central Standard Time Tuesday. “He’s been a builder in his life, and I think he will be able to bring that kind of energy to what we need to eradicate some of the ills in our society”, said Calvin Tucker of West Mt. Airy.
“Democracy is a series of choices”, Ryan said.
“And he made it clear to us that the decision before the country is Trump or Clinton and that Trump is the clear choice”, Morelli said.
“Watch the Democratic Party convention next week – that four-day infomercial of politically correct moralizing”.
Speaking at the GOP convention delegation’s breakfast, Ryan listed changes that congressional Republicans are seeking to welfare programs, national security, health care, federal regulations and the tax code.
“Guess what Hillary Clinton doesn’t agree with any of this stuff”.
Americans have had enough and “2016 is the year America moves on from Obama and Clinton”, Ryan said.
