Paul Ryan: ‘The Left Is Out of Gas — I Think They Just Basically Decided Resist, Resist, Resist’

Tuesday on Fox News Channel’s “Fox & Friends,” House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-WI) was asked about some Democratic Party tactics aimed at him, including a man of his likeness pushing an elderly lady off a cliff.

Ryan said that did not bother him and that those gestures were a sign that “the left is out of gas.”

“I think the left is out of gas,” Ryan said. “I think they just basically decided resist, resist, resist. They want government-run health care. Government-run health care is collapsing as we speak. It’s not working. So what are we doing? We’re replacing it with a law that will actually work. Anthem BlueCross BlueShield just said you pass this law, it’s going to stabilize the market, it’s going to bring down prices. It will get more plans being offered to people.”
