Speaker Paul Ryan addresses @MSGOP delegation at #RNCinCLE

Paul Ryan urges Miss. delegates to support Donald Trump

House Speaker Paul Ryan urged Mississippi delegates at the Republican National Convention on Wednesday to get behind the party’s conservative agenda and said a Donald Trump-Mike Pence ticket could help boost its chances.

“If you want to get this country back on track, we have to make Donald Trump our president,’’ said Ryan, R-Wis. “You measure people by the big decisions they make. He made a big decision by putting (Indiana Gov.) Mike Pence on his ticket.’’

Ryan was a keynote speaker at the Mississippi delegation’s breakfast. Former Texas Gov. Rick Perry, who dropped out of the presidential race last September, also addressed the delegates.
