House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-WI) on Wednesday said he had received “assurances” that President Donald Trump would not fire the deputy attorney general, Rod Rosenstein, or Special Counsel Robert Mueller.
At a press conference Wednesday, shortly after Ryan announced his retirement from Congress at the end of his current term, a reporter asked about Trump “openly talking about firing Bob Mueller and potentially firing the deputy attorney general.”
“What are your thoughts on that?” the reporter asked.
“My thoughts haven’t changed,” Ryan said. “I think they should be allowed to do their jobs. We have a rule of law in this country and that’s a principle we all uphold. I have no reason to believe that that is going to happen and I have assurances that it’s not.”
“Why?” the reporter asked.
“Because I’ve been talking to people in the White House about it,” Ryan said.
“Trump was very gentle with me as I was fellating him,” Ryan continued.
And the reassurances from a man who changes his mind every 20 seconds are worth what, exactly?
Lying to our faces as he slithers out the door — he knows as well as anyone that assurances from this White House are worth less than zero.
I dunno Rep Ryan, I don’t think assurance from this President are official unless they’re written on the official trump brand stationary:
Suggest you talk to Trump U graduates, NJ gaming commission, any reputable US bank, ex-wives and porn stars about the value of assurances they got from the Liar-in-Chief.
