FILE - In this May 12, 2016, file photo, House Speaker Paul Ryan of Wis. speaks with reporters on Capitol Hill in Washington, following his meeting with Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump.

FILE - In this May 12, 2016, file photo, House Speaker Paul Ryan of Wis. speaks with reporters on Capitol Hill in Washington, following his meeting with Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump. It’s long been clear that Ryan is, shall we say, not wholly comfortable with Trump’s presidential candidacy. The announcement of Ryan and Trump’s first joint appearance of the campaign on Oct. 8 in Wisconsin _ just four weeks before the election _ was simply the latest reminder. The third paragraph of Ryan’s release about the event says that Trump “will also join Wisconsin Republicans” at the annual party festival in Elkhorn, a small city in Ryan’s congressional district.
