Paul Ryan said there could be something Donald Trump would do or say to lose the House speaker’s endorsement but that he didn’t know what that would be. In an interview Friday with Wisconsin radio host Charlie Sykes, Ryan said no endorsement of a candidate comes with a “blank check” or an understanding that the two politicians agree on everything.
Sykes asked Ryan if the “check” had an “expiration date”—that is, could Trump say or do something to cause Ryan to reconsider his endorsement? “Is there anything that he could say that would cause you to basically say, I’m cancelling that check?” Sykes said.
