As Establishment GOP Backs Away, Trump Says ‘The Shackles Have Been Taken Off Me’

DailyCaller: As the Republican establishment backs away from him, Donald Trump says he now feels like “the shackles have been taken off me and I can now fight for America the way I want to.”

His comments follow Paul Ryan, the speaker of the House, telling his fellow Republicans on Monday that he won’t use his energy to defend Trump but will rather work to try to preserve the party’s majority in the House.

After video surfaced Friday of Trump using lewd language in 2005, scores of Republicans condemned him and more than 25 GOP lawmakers called on him to step down.

In a series of tweets on Tuesday, Trump lashed out at Ryan and argued the Democrats are more loyal to their party’s nominee.

 

“With the exception of cheating Bernie out of the nom the Dems have always proven to be far more loyal to each other than the Republicans!” Trump said.

  1. He needs to quit the Twitter shit. Ryan told him a couple months ago he would step down if Trump asked. Trump needs to ask. Have Eddie Mungster step down. Trump needs to focus on the same tone he had in the last debate.

  2. The ONLY ass Paul Ryan is trying to save is his own as Speaker. A Trump victory will pressure the House members to force a vote of confidence in Ryan as Speaker. He could go the way of Crying John. Good Riddance.

  3. Davy — I think that is exactly what Trump meant. In FL last night you could see a new spring in his step, an energetic, happy Trump. It was as though he was really revved up and ready to rumble.

  4. Those RINOs never supported Trump, they said they did as a show but never expected him to be doing this well by this point. Now that he has a strong shot to win they realize they are screwed and are panicking.

    To me his is still a sledge hammer so I don’t care whether he swings a few times at the RINOs.

    Remember these ass hats (Paul Ryan’s crowd) are the ones who released the “grab her by the pussy” tape.

    He has been running against the GOPe the DNC and the Soros crowd the whole time, the masks are coming off.

  5. Ryan tried to deflate Trump’s debate victory by making in announcement after the win – taking some of the press away from the event. Trump had to respond and turn it around on Ryan.

  6. Its not just Hilary
    The GOPe and the Democrats are Janus
    Two faces on the same head.
    Trump is kicking over the entire apple cart.
    If the GOPe hates him, that in itself is reason to vote him in

  7. Note to presumptive President Trump:
    Sir,

    I wish you would not join the GOP in eating its own. We are for you and the republicans for one reason: survival.

    If Clinton is elected, she will complete the destruction of America.

    Please, redirect your vitriol to the opposition. Point out, as you do so well, Clintons past. Leave her husband out of it, because he is NOT the enemy, and it diminishes her actions. Her behavior in attacking the victims is fair game. Her other transgressions are endless fodder with which you can burn down the liberals.

    Pointing out the willingness of her supporters, many of whom do not like her, are supporting her through thick and very thin, and it would be great if the GOP was so driven to win, that they did so, with you. However, rise above the shakiness of the GOP; encourage at every chance, Americans to vote Republican. That is the battle. Remind the GOP that voters often vote a ticket and a vote for a president usually means a vote for the party.

    I encourage you to refrain from using twitter to attack our side. Use you wonderfully honest hits on CLINTON and her flying monkeys, doing evil at her bidding.

    Thank you and please, please hang in there. Just redirect attacks at the enemy.

  8. So interesting: Obama invites to the White House and lauds authors of the most sexist, foul lyrics in history, but a contrite Trump, is suspect for a what he thought was PRIVATE conversation.

    I wonder, if Mr.Trump
    put the words to music and had twerking, half-naked girls gyrating all around him, with his pants hanging under his buttocks, would he receive an invitation from the White House?
