Ryan on Trump: We Need ‘Standard Bearer That Bears Our Standards’

On Thursday, Speaker Paul Ryan said he isn’t ready to endorse Donald Trump.

“I think what a lot of Republicans want to see, is that we have a standard bearer that bears our standards, and that unifies all the wings of the Republican party, which we all come from different wings of our party. But we all agree on a common platform of conservative principles. We want somebody who takes these conservative principles, applies them to the problems, and offers solutions to the country that a vast majority of Americans can vote for, that they want to be enthusiastic about. That is what I think it takes to unify the party. That—I think there’s work that needs to be done in order to unify the party. I think our nominee—our presumptive nominee—needs to do that. I want to be part of helping him do that.”
