The Trump Campaign Told The Media That Paul Ryan Was About To Endorse. Then THIS Happened.

The usual lying from the Donald Trump campaign continues. On Wednesday, ABC News reported, “House Speaker Paul Ryan will be endorsing presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump, senior-level Trump campaign sources told ABC News today. It’s unclear when the endorsement will take place, but Ryan has a briefing on the House GOP agenda scheduled later today in Washington.”

Yet AshLee Strong, a Ryan spokeswoman, responded, “There’s no update and we’ve not told the Trump campaign to expect an endorsement. He’s also not told anyone he regrets anything,” apparently referring to Ryan’s previous reluctance to endorse Trump. On May 5, Ryan told CNN he wasn’t ready to endorse Trump. One week later Trump and Ryan met in Washington, but Ryan still deferred endorsing Trump.
