Jesus Christ.

Donie O’Sullivan.
The correspondent interviewed a number of rally goers for a piece which CNN’s

Former Republican House Speaker Paul Ryan is expected to criticize former President Donald Trump in a speech at the Ronald Reagan library Thursday evening.
Ryan is expected to slam Trump’s influence on the Republican Party and advise conservatives to embrace “independence and mettle” rather than the former president’s “populist appeal,” in a speech at the Reagan Library in Simi Valley, California, according to excerpts obtained by CNN.
“Once again, we conservatives find ourselves at a crossroads.

Voters looking for Republican leaders want to see independence and mettle,” Ryan will say, according to CNN.
