‘You’re a Piece of Garbage’: Republican Congressman blasts Paul Ryan for trashing Trump on Fox News
June 12, 2024 | Kevin Haggerty

A former speaker of the House was slammed as a “piece of garbage” after using Fox News airtime to rag on former President Donald Trump.

Considered by some to be the embodiment of a downward trajectory at Fox News, former House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-WI) was appointed to the Board of Directors at Fox Corporation not long after turning over the gavel to California Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D) at the beginning of 2019. Bristled by his take on Trump beside “kindred spirit” Neil Cavuto, Texas Rep. Troy Nehls (R) laid into the onetime vice presidential candidate.

Presented with Ryan’s remarks by CNN chief congressional correspondent Manu Raju, the former Houston-area sheriff sounded off, “Paul Ryan you’re a piece of garbage.”

“You’re a piece of garbage and we should kick you out of the party. … Don’t go spouting your mouth off and saying that you’re a conservative,” continued Nehls. “You’re spitting in the face of the leader of our party. I mean grow up a little bit.”

Those remarks came after Ryan had appeared on “Your World” with Neil Cavuto and said of the all-but-nominated 2024 Republican presidential candidate, “I voted for him in 2016, hoping that there was gonna be a different kind of person in office. And I do think character is a really important issue. If you put yourself above the Constitution as he has done, I think that makes you unfit for office.”

“But what happened?” interjected Cavuto. “What turned you? Was it the whole January 6 thing?”

Paul Ryan is already persona non grata among grassroots Republicans.

I don't have a problem with anyone who dislikes Trump because there is plenty to dislike IMO.  Criticize him in private all you want.   However, what bugs me about politicians like Cheney and Ryan is that they let their public dislike for Trump result in a free pass for the left.  And long term, the left is clearly a greater threat than is Trump because they're going to be around long after he is gone.  They end up becoming useful idiots for the left to argue that their agenda is more worthy of support than is Trump.

Correct.  Let’s not be Trump-like and air out how much we hate who is supposed to be on our side.

Remember, “if you can’t say anything nice don’t say anything at all”?  That applies to politicians.  I don’t like it from Trump and I don’t like it from those who were often on the receiving end of his childish vitriol.  I understand.  Just try to ignore it.  It brings down the party and thus the country.

What us average citizens say doesn't matter because that can't really be used for political mileage by the left.  But when a Republican politician comes out and says something like that...yeah, that's a problem.

And I don't even have a problem with them publicly criticizing Trump on specific issues.  If they think it is warranted, they should.  I do have a problem when they end up saying "he's worse than Biden", etc..

I guess I could hedge a bit.  Ryan is no longer a politician.  But he’s still very public, so I guess in many ways fair game.  And as a commentator he certainly can criticize Trump….and that’s all I see here.  No name-calling though subverting the Constitution is a very serious charge (not for liberals).

But, I wish they’d all stop the childish invective started in public by their hero, The Don Trump.  Never heard it so bad as since, and before it was only on the left, sometimes.
