Mike Malloy - Paul Ryan Endorses Trump Hours After Promising To Speak Out Against Islamophobia

[hschulein]

On Thursday, House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-WI) hosted a meeting with the nation’s oldest interfaith peace organization, the Fellowship of Reconciliation, who pleaded with him to publicly stand up to the Islamophobia in his party and promote tolerance of refugees.

A few hours later, Ryan announced he’d be voting for the person who has been the loudest voice stoking fear of Muslims and refugees: Donald Trump.

Following their meeting at his Janesville, Wisconsin office, the Fellowship of Reconciliation said Paul promised the group that he would “speak out against anti-Muslim rhetoric” and visit the new Muslim Community Center and Masjid in his hometown. Anthony Grimes, the Fellowship of Reconciliation’s Director of Campaigns and Strategy, told ThinkProgress the meeting included a local Muslim faith leader and his daughter, Salih Erschen and Sabrina Erschen, who “shared their stories about what it’s like to be Muslim in this country.”

“Mr. Ryan was supportive of trying to build a country of people of all faiths,” Grimes said. “He affirmed much of our messaging.”

1. Did I say Islamophobia? I meant Islamorada - I'm not in love with that destination

I prefer something more Caribbean.

And thank you, Mr Trump, for changing my reservations.
