As He Departs, Paul Ryan Will Leave A Residue Of Failure And Fraud
Evidently realizing that he might drown in the blue wave that is inundating Wisconsin, Paul Ryan announced his retirement today.
He has suggested that he might quit before, but now the Speaker faces the real prospect of involuntary ejection from Congress. He is showing the white feather, running from a midterm fight that his party appears increasingly likely to lose.
Ryan always got much better media coverage than he deserved — as a reputed policy wonk, although his numbers never added up, and as a supposed compassionate conservative, although he thrilled at cutting Medicaid. He reportedly has proclaimed himself satisfied with the legacy of last year’s Trump tax cut, whose massive tilt toward the wealthiest in society reflects his career perfectly.
The timing of the announcement was perfect in a different way. Ryan has always styled himself a fiscal conservative, but yesterday, the Congressional Budget Office revealed the deep fraudulence of that image with a report showing that the federal deficit will break one trillion dollars within the next two years, and that the Trump-Ryan tax bill will add almost $2 trillion to the cumulative deficit over the coming decade. Math was never his best subject.
