Joanne Butler in an opinion piece at the Daily Caller writes:
For those conservatives who are shocked by Ryan favoring Obama’s secret
trade deal, I say: you must have selective and short memories.
[...] Many conservatives cheered when Dave Brat beat Cantor, but in a way
both men won. Brat is in the House, while Cantor resigned soon after the
primary and took a $3.4 million job at an investment bank. If Cantor’s punishment is a $3.4 million paycheck, they can punish me for half the price.
Back to Paul Ryan: you’d have to be very naïve not to believe that
he sees a huge payday ahead the moment he leaves Congress. And being a
numbers guy (unlike Cantor) he would add value to any hedge fund or
investment bank.
Isn’t this what being an American is all about? Work hard, acquire knowledge and skills, and the marketplace will reward you?
She's straight-up accusing Ryan of determining his positions on things like trade with an eye to goosing up his value when he leaves the Congress and gets a cushy lobbyist job.
