    Darrel Issa. Vote big for him.

    We need a businessman to bring this House together and push forward results.

    Trey Gowdy hasn't even gotten his own bill HR 1148 that authorizes states and local governments to enforce US immigration law out of Committee when 92% of Republicans nationwide want illegal immigration stopped and our laws enforced.

    Well, his goal wasn't amnesty, it was to get them registered so he could deport them. I oppose that method. I prefer authorizing states and local governments to enforce US immigration law because the local cops know who they are, where they are and what they're doing, something the feds don't know. In 2013, when he introduced this bill, that's when the government was challenging states rights to enforce US immigration law and Congress wasn't trying to pass a bill to clear the way for states to enforce US immigration law.

    I'm not going to hold that bill that didn't go anywhere that was an extension of his effort many years earlier to try to register these people so they could be deported, against him. We have better alternatives now, with some wins at least partial at the US Supreme Court that uphold much of Arizona's state immigration law. We have Marsha Blackburn and Trey Gowdy's bill HR 1148 to pass, if Trey can stop hounding Planned Parenthood long enough to actually work on his own bill and get it out Committee to the floor for a vote.

    The reality is Congress can't do squat on immigration until we elect at least 6 more Republican Senators than we have now and put Trump in the White House. That's just the reality.

    He was a proponent some time back of increasing foreign worker visas, but I think he's realized the companies using that are cheating and by this point we actually need a Moratorium.

    In any event, he would be a great Speaker overall. He's tied in tight with the Freedom Caucus, now, too, or at least I think he is, he said as much in his statements today, but right now they're already committed to Daniel Webster.

    At this point, our goal should be:

    ANYONE BUT RYAN. Of all the choices, he is the worst.

    Is there someone out there we think would be better than Issa? Someone we can hang our hat on?

    Someone who wants to deport illegal aliens and voted against TPA?

    Donald Trump: I'd "be okay" with Paul Ryan as House speaker



    Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump told "Face the Nation" in an interview set to air in full on Sunday that he'd "be okay" with Rep. Paul Ryan, R-Wisconsin, as speaker of the House, despite the fact that Ryan "doesn't seem to want" the job.

    "Well, I think he's somebody that probably that could get good support," Trump said of Ryan, who has been pressured by GOP lawmakers to enter the leadership race since House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-California, abruptly removed himself from consideration Thursday. "I think he's a very nice person. I think he doesn't want it very badly, but you never know. Maybe he's playing one of the great games of all time. It is Speaker of the House, I mean, it's a great position. But he doesn't seem to want it. But I'll bet you that if it was actually offered to him, he would take it."


    "Face the Nation" host John Dickerson noted Trump's suggestion that the next speaker should be "strong," asking the Republican candidate whether Ryan fits that description.


    "I think he's strong," Trump said, but he added that he disagrees with Ryan's proposed entitlement reforms.


    "I think that when Mitt Romney chose him last time, it was a tough choice because he's been so anti-Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, in a sense. You know, he would say he hasn't been, but they certainly played that up hard. And that was a disastrous campaign for a lot of reasons," Trump explained.

    "But Paul Ryan's a good man. I know him very little, but I think he's a very good person."


    And when Dickerson asked whether he'd be okay with Ryan as speaker, Trump replied, "I would be okay."


    Still, Trump cautioned, "It may not be him. I mean, they have a couple of people in there, I'm not going to mention names. But people I know that are really tough and really smart. And right now, that's what we need because the Republicans never win. John, they never win. Everything, whether it's on Obamacare, whether it's on the debt ceiling, no matter what we have, there's never, ever a victory. So we need a toughness and we just don't have there right now."


    Trump was also asked why he publicly took credit for McCarthy's decision not to run for speaker, and he suggested his decision to criticize McCarthy may have had an impact.


    "I've been taking a little bit of credit because people have been giving me credit on [my Twitter feed.] They're saying that I spoke up against him only because it's a question of toughness," Trump explained. "He didn't seem like that. We need toughness. We need fists, we need the brainpower, and we need toughness."


    Trump criticized McCarthy's suggestion that the House committee investigating Benghazi was responsible for depressing Hillary Clinton's poll numbers, saying the gaffe may have played a role in the majority leader's decision to bow out of the leadership race.


    "When he made the statement on Benghazi, it was a tough statement. It was a really bad statement for Republicans, and even for the nation in a sense. Because he so disparaged what's going on," Trump explained. "And I happen to believe that what they're doing is the right thing and they're doing it for the right reason. But it was so disparaging to what's taking place with respect to Hillary Clinton and that whole fiasco that maybe she created. And I didn't like seeing that."


    For the full interview with Trump, tune into "Face the Nation" on Sunday. Check your local listings for airtimes.
