I loved Lenny. I can still do several of his bits from memory. Favorite line"Look at the dummy! Haw haw haw! I got nine Lincoln Continentals, that's how godamn dumb I am."From the time before there even were megachurches and private jets.
When the dust settles on this entire mess, Paul Ryan will be remembered as one of the people who could have done the most to limit or rein in Trump's evil but chose not to in exchange for tax cuts. He consistently and constantly chose not to hold Trump to any moral standard despite being in the party of so-called 'family values.' He consistently chose not to hold Trump accountable for abuses of power like politically-motivated pardons of clearly guilty people despite being in the party in favor of the rule of law. He chose to sit idly by while Trump enacted racist policies because he believes his party cannot live without the racist 30% that will always support Trump.
He'll be remembered as the American Neville Chamberlain, appeasing Trump in the name of avoiding party civil war.
When the dust settles Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell will be personally responsible for the destruction of the Republican party and a great deal of damage to their country. They chose party over country and Trump over values. In exchange for some deeply unpopular tax cuts.
And, let's be honest, we all know the reason Ryan is retiring now is because he hopes that by doing so everyone will forget his complicity in time for him to run for President in 10 years.
That was tremendously lame! And then the way he refused to even speak of what those tragedies might have been, as if it was bad manners to try to find out what he meant. I mean, how convenient! I must say I haven't the faintest idea what he could have been getting at. We've had lots and lots of tragedy in a year-- what about the general misery? What about that Paul? Oh, right. You don't know what I mean.
He never loses that look either. Times when he should be full of self-blame. Loathing! Testing the blade of his knife on his own neck, even. I remember at the end of his debate with Joe Biden the families came out on stage and his wife walked toward Joe to shake hands and also toward the camera, and I have to say, she had the sweetest expression and the hugest smile. It seemed to me she was holding really nothing back in greeting this opponent of her husband and was totally sweet. If it's true what must that be like? She had to go to that pretend dishwashing at the homeless shelter, she has to hear about Ayn Rand and then hear how he repudiated Rand because she wasn't a Christian-- what a liar-- and hear how he spent his beer drinking days wondering how to cancel all the safety nets for the poor and old so they could learn to have character. Maybe she is actually being kept against her will. Tied up with plastic things, except when it's time to make dinner.
Paul Ryan? He is just another in a long line of rat fuking shit weazels....good godamn ridance.
Can't help myself either. So much to get used to all at once.
Even his miracle budget he was so famous for, didn't balance!
I can't help myself!

I think you nailed it.
The number of things that Paul Ryan doesn't think about could fill a civics textbook.

Yes, Paul Ryan, fuck right of to Janesville, and wait there until your conspiring with Russians comes to light.
Paul Ryan - JACKOFF!
I learned a whole bunch of nothing from that Ryan interview. Way to keep it real, Paulie. Hit it, Billy!
