Paul Ryan: Trump has ‘tremendous compassion’

Published October 7, 2017 12:55pm ET



House Speaker Paul Ryan said President Trump has “tremendous compassion” when tackling the crises that recently hit the U.S.

“I talk to him about these things,” the Wisconsin Republican said during an interview that aired Saturday morning. “He has tremendous compassion. He is flying to these emergencies as soon as he can without jeopardizing responses. And I think the fact that he’s going and stopping what he’s doing and focusing on these things – We talk about the supplementals we talk about these issues; it shows that the people who are suffering from these tragedies are on his mind from the center.”
