Ryan declines to support Trump as GOP standard-bearer

(London Guardian) House speaker Paul Ryan, the highest-ranking elected Republican official, has said he does not yet support Donald Trump as the party’s presumptive presidential nominee.

Marking the latest defection in a brewing civil war that threatens to tear apart the GOP before the general election in November, Ryan said Trump had yet to prove he shared the conservative values and principles necessary to be the party’s standard-bearer.

“I’m just not ready to do that at this point,” Ryan, the 2012 Republican vice-presidential nominee, told CNN in an interview on Thursday when asked if he was backing Trump. “I’m not there right now.”
