Paul Ryan struggles to convince many he supports Trump at RNC
Ryan concluded by using a football analogy to explain why Republicans should rally behind Donald Trump.

“Voting for anybody but Donald Trump means you are voting for Hillary Clinton”, said Ryan, who even led an “O-H, I-O”, Buckeye cheer.
House Speaker Paul Ryan – a Wisconsin Republican who went to college at Miami University – walked into the OH delegation breakfast Wednesday morning and told the delegates something they had yet to hear from any breakfast speaker during this convention.
“What do you say that we unify this party?”. The agenda calls for lower taxes, streamlined business regulation to spur job growth and a change in strategy for addressing poverty, among other things.
Ryan disparaged the notion of a Hillary Clinton presidency as going backwards.
When Trump announced his candidacy for president last June, most members of the media and political pundits wrote him off as a side show act with no real chance at success.
That culminated in Ryan finding himself in the position of overseeing Trump’s convention and delivering a prime-time address embracing the nominee this week.
It was one of the rare occasions this week at any OH delegation event where the name of the now-official nominee of the Republican party was spoken.
“That was a very good choice, a very exciting choice”, Ryan said.
Ryan, the country’s top elected Republican, waited more than a month to endorse Trump when he became the GOP’s presumptive nominee.
Watch the Democratic National Convention next week if you want to see a “four-day infomercial of politically correct moralizing”, Ryan said. “We can do this, we can earn that mandate, if we don’t hold anything back, if we never lose sight of the stakes, if we never lose sight of what’s on the table”.
“Our candidates will be giving their all, their utmost, and every one of us has got to do the same”.
