Report: Paul Ryan Heard Saying There’s No Chance For Border Wall

The swamp remains occupied by the Republican establishment. Paul Ryan, never ceasing to create obstruction, supposedly said in a private setting that there is no way a wall will ever be built.

Leave it to Breitbart to uncover the underbelly of the D.C. swamp:

House Speaker Paul Ryan, at a private dinnerĀ earlier this year, said he thought only ā€œone memberā€ wanted to build a wall across the entire U.S.-Mexico border, Breitbart News has learned from multiple sources with direct knowledge of the comments, including former Rep. Tom Tancredo (R-CO).

The dinner, sources said, took place on the eve of the House’s passage of two relatively minor immigration bills at the end of June: Kate’s Law and sanctuary city reforms. The far wider reaching Davis-Oliver Act was tabled at the same time.

ā€œRyan told a group of Republicans he met with … that only one person wants a wall,ā€ Tancredo told Breitbart News shortly after the dinner.

Tancredo took issue with the Speaker’s characterization of support for the wall within the House GOP. ā€œOf course he means only one person in his entourage and of the leadership,ā€ he told Breitbart News. ā€œI know several people in Congress who want a wall and I know that there are millions of Americans who want a wall.ā€

ā€œYou have to understand the level of fear that exists in the Republican establishment about this issue,ā€ Tancredo told Breitbart News, seeking to explain the pressures that Republican members of Congress face when addressing immigration.

ā€œThe Chamber of Commerce doesn’t want a wall … the pressure is greater from the Chamber of Commerce than it is from the members,ā€ Tancredo, who for years in the House fought a mostly fruitless battle to get Congress to combat the flood of illegal immigration, added. ā€œThat’s the basic problem. It was then. It is now.ā€

Establishment Republicans need to get with the program and fast. 2018 is approaching.
