That's wishful thinking. Trump got played, got his ego stroked into having his name all over a bill about which he clearly knows nothing. So far all Trump has done is blame the democrats. Anyway Ryan will be president after Trump and his traitorous enablers are marched out of the oval office in handcuffs

Do you really think so? I don't see it. And I'd rather if not. I think Ryan is decent at being a politician, but the only way I see for him to become president sooner than 2028 is if Pence becomes PUSA before the next 4 years are out.

Ryan will be president because he's next in line after Pence. After it became clear that Pence was lying about what he knew from Flynn, I no longer think Pence will survive Comey's FBI investigation. He's been distancing himself recently but Manafort is going to go in next week and sing like a bird.
