Paul Ryan calls DeSantis-pushed 'anti-woke' issues 'polarizing': 'I'm not a culture war guy'
Former U.S. House Speaker Paul Ryan pushed back on "culture war" issues described as being "anti-woke" during an appearance on CBS.

"Former U.S. House Speaker Paul Ryan pushed back on “culture war” issues described as being “anti-woke” during an appearance on CBS. Those issues have been a centerpiece of Gov. Ron DeSantis’ administration and helped kick off his rise to national recognition –
“Banning books, it could be trans rights, call it anti woke or however you wanna label it – is that a good approach? A good strategy?” the CBS host asked Ryan. “I’m not a culture war guy,” Ryan replied. “I think it’s really polarizing.”
Is this guy serious? Jobs, the economy, stuff like that is more important than whether or not our kids are protected from trans-pedophile-teachers hellbent on raping our children and turning them in transgender assassins? How was this guy ever voted into the House Speaker chair? How was this guy ever allowed as the GOP candidate for VP barely 10 years ago? Remember, it wasn't that long before he and a few other "young conservatives" were being called "The Young Guns"
Republicans basically treated this guy like a rock star...how is that possible? How did the same people on this post who now hate this guy, once be the same people who praised him and bought into that whole "Young Guns" bullshit? This guy has always been what he is now, how did he fool you? This guy was someone you wanted to be Vice President...now you all hate him, how were yall so easily fooled? The same thing with Mike Pence.....yall once wanted him to be VP, now yall call him a traitor, a RINO, etc...how is this possible? Trump picked him....was he as easily fooled as you are? If so, why worship him? Anyway, the only thing Paul Ryan got accomplished was getting Trump to pass Ryan's big huge billionaire tax cut....a tax cut so unpopular, that even Trumpers barely tout it now....
The fact of the matter is, boring stuff like tax cuts for corporations and financial deregulations isn't what gets the base excited...Nothing gets them excited like cracking down on these fags and trannies...You think people are excited about loosening regulations on chemical companies or stripping away collective bargaining rights for workers? No...they are excited by the idea that you will punish their enemies....Instead of trying to cut Medicare Medicaid, how about you pass laws that make it illegal to vote if you are a tranny? Yea, it may not be constitutional, but that isn't the point...the point is, it will excite your base and get them to the polls.....Yea, you may not actually make trannies voting illegal, but at least you talked about it..and that is important to the average right-wing voter.....it's the performance that counts, not the actual results....
