Speaker of the House Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) said on Sunday that President Trump should let special counsel Robert Mueller carry out his investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 election.

“As the Speaker has always said, Mr. Mueller and his team should be able to do their job,” AshLee Strong, a spokeswoman for Ryan, said in a statement issued Sunday.

She did not comment on whether Congress should take up legislation to protect Mueller, CNN reported.

Ryan joins a number of key Republicans that have warned Trump not to interfere with Mueller’s investigation.

And here's hoping that Mueller's job includes sending you to prison, you spineless Eddie Munster impersonator, after sending the Shitgibbon there.

1. Fuck Lying Ryan

2. Coward says what?

3. He doesn't want his fingerprints on this.

4. Seems that only fox and friends has trumps

Back on this. Maybe trump figured that's enough and will do it anyway, who knows?

5. The Cowardly Ryan speaks

19. That's the new Official Nickname!

We have a winner! Nice one!

6. Subliminal support for Trump firing Mueller

Ryan here tacitly acknowledges it's Trump's call, and Ryan is ambivalent at best, which mean Trump goes it alone with a moderate amount of blowback from GOP Congress.

This is no defense of Mueller at all. It's just smoke and mirrors.

7. The Dem base is energized as it is.....

They all know that if shit gibbon does an Archibald Cox on Mueller, the bloodbath in Nov. will be biblical in its scope and size.

8. Paul Ryan's ONLY redeemable quality is that he is not Ted Cruz....and even that is dabatable.

9. Turtle is still sleeping

"I don't feel any particular need to reach out to protect someone who seems to need no protection."

10. Hey Paul:

You took an oath to defend the Constitution: DO YOUR FUCKING JOB!

[cstanleytech]

12. We already saw how he values any oaths he took upon assuming office with how he dealt with Nunes.

[cstanleytech]

11. Trump got Ryans nickname right atleast because like Nunes I doubt Ryan would not do anything if

Trump would fire Mueller.

[FakeNoose]

13. A special thank-you to Republicans

[thegoose]

14. Getting cold feet now?

Worthless POS. He hears the drumbeats and turns yellow, just like the Cheeto he's been sucking for over a year.

[Chemisse]

15. Well this is an interesting development.

Ryan stopped cowering long enough to utter a tiny peep of protest.

[kairos12]

16. When Drumpt fires Mueller Ryan will say no one could have seen this coming. Oh well.

[duforsure]

17. By saying nothing Ryan and McConnell

Are hurting their mid term chances , and will create a bigger wave ousting Republicans. They should protect Mueller before he tries this, or they'll suffer more at the ballot box next Nov. . The American people hearing silence now from them will backfire even more on them. The longer this goes on not knowing, the greater chances the House and the Senate will turn over to the Dems. Or do they have NDA's too to him?

18. Let Mueller do his job/ ryan: Spoken like another incompetent who'd like to be President

20. I still smell a rat
