During a Friday interview with CNN’s “New Day,” Katrina Pierson was asked whether Ryan is still fit for his position if he doesn’t come around to supporting Trump.

“No, because this is about the party,” she said. “Look, you have to understand, the last two presidential cycles we were told that John McCain John Sidney McCainMcSally says current Senate should vote on Trump nominee Say what you will about the presidential candidates, as long as it isn't 'They're too old' The electoral reality that the media ignores MORE is a conservative — his Conservative Review scorecard is a 37 percent. We were told Mitt Romney is a conservative, and he was pro-abortion, pro-gay marriage, pro-adoption, gave us ObamaCare.

“And we were told to hold our noses and vote for the sake of the party. These same people are now telling us that because their guy didn’t win, they want to hurt the party.”

On Thursday, Ryan said he is “not ready” to back Trump.

“I hope to though, and I want to,” the Speaker said. “But what is required is to unify this party. And the bulk of the burden on unifying the party will have to come from our presumptive nominee.”
