Five years now, tried to tell Paul Ryan, off and on air, before he endorsed Donald Trump the day or two after he called him a racist, that hes a bully and you dont you dont negotiate with bullies. And you dont grovel, because when you grovel with bullies, they spit in your face. And thats whats happened time and time again with republicans.
