Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump lashed out at Paul Ryan in an interview with Bill O’Reilly, making it very clear he didn’t care, nor want Ryan’s support.
This outburst against the Republican House Speaker came after Ryan had announced he could not support Trump and his hidden tape scandal, though he did say he would still endorse and vote for him. Ryan has been a firm supporter of Trump throughout his campaign.
As always, when Trump doesn’t get his way, he starts to bad mouth people. He told Fox News, during an interview that:
“I don’t want his support. I don’t care about his support. What I want to do is I want to win for the people.”
The angry remarks came shortly after Trump took to Twitter bashing Ryan for cutting him loose and pointing the blame of his failing campaign on the Republican Party’s leadership.
It is so nice that the shackles have been taken off me and I can now fight for America the way I want to.

In his usual fashion of dropping names to make himself look important Trump explained his tweets further by stating:
“They’re not giving support — they don’t give the support that we really need — but the fact is that I think we should get support and we don’t get the support from guys like Paul Ryan. He had a conference call with Congressman, with hundreds of them, and they practically rioted against him on the phone. One person stuck up for him.”
He continued his rant by picking apart Ryan including his budgets, amnesty, and his view on the borders. But he didn’t stop there; his anger spilled over to the topic of Republican Arizona Sen. John McCain who unendorsed him during the havoc his scandal was having in the media.
When O’Reilly pointed out that if Trump were to take the Oval Office, he would need Ryan and McCain, to which Trump nonchalantly replied:
“They’ll be there.”
Trump, whenever he is bad mouthed or slapped on the hand for doing wrong, acts like a child on the playground with no friends. That is exactly the kind of person we DON’T need in the White House; he’ll be nuking entire cities because they don’t want to come out and play.
