If you recall, Ryan said he wasn’t ready yet to support Trump as the party’s nominee. Trump said, in effect, “Who needs you?” And the ensuing Trump-Ryan clash was portrayed as a Republican Armageddon—the destruction of the party as we know it.

Trump is making another smart decision [pivot]. Dumb like a fox, The Donald. He really needs party unity and support. I can see Ryan’s hesitance.
