This was a guy that Obama personally chose to represent the GOP because Obama was so frustrated at the GOP being obstructionist that he picked a guy with at least some positive ideas.

And what was Paul Ryan's singular achievement become once the GOP had the majority? A tax cut for the rich that barely affects marginal tax rates and is based off unsustainable debt timed during an economic boom.

No real legitimate conservative economist has ever advocated such an absolutely shitty policy.

Fuck Paul Ryan and fuck what the GOP has become.

Does this mean that our Social Security and Medicare are safe?

In the mean time Ryan has his Congressional Pension nailed down. Along with what he has made on the stock market from Congressional insider trading info.

Next stop as a talking head on Fox.

This super important Florida republican congressman announced today that he's not seeking reelection.

Nothing is safe with Trump's huge deficit. The tax cut has to be repealed and it won't with Trump or Pence in office. Even if dems retake congress, they will only partially repeal the corporate tax cuts and the tax cuts on the top 1%. That's only about 1/4th of the tax cuts enacted.

So we have a trillion-dollar deficit with a recession around the corner which will require stimulus.

Republicans set a ticking, huge fiscal time bomb that will fuck over all Americans.
