House Speaker Paul Ryan has no plans to endorse the Republican Party's presumptive nominee Donald Trump.
At least not yet.
"I have not made a decision, and nothing has changed," Ryan told reporters Wednesday during a pen and pad according to the Huffington Post.
Reports surfaced Wednesday morning that senior Trump campaign officials were confident the endorsement was coming, but Ryan's office quickly squashed those reports.

Not so much eh..
Of course that becomes glaringly obvious when you look at a listing of people who have declared support and nearly the whole republican legislature is missing from the list.

Pathetic bunch of weasels.
It would all make for great campaign ads of all the Republicans who were on record saying how horrible Trump is.
Of course that would require something other than dry powder from "our side" and our candidates and the DNC actually running those ads. But since we belong to a party of cowardly, power hungry sycophants who care more about what Chuck Todd and Jo Scarborough say about them than they do about doing what is right for the country that's not going to happen.

Make no mistake, as awful as some of them know Drumpf is, they hate Hillary Clinton, period.
