Paul Ryan is traveling to South Carolina to campaign for RINO Rep. Tom Rice.
President Trump has endorsed Russell Fry, the primary challenger to Rice.
Rice voted to impeach President Donald Trump in the wake of January 6th.
The Washington Times reported:
Former House Speaker Paul Ryan will travel to South Carolina to campaign for a House Republican being targeted for voting to impeach former President Donald Trump in the wake of the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol.
Mr. Ryan will attend a campaign luncheon for Rep. Tom Rice next week in Florence.
“Tom Rice is a man of principle, a man of conviction, and a leader who always puts South Carolina’s interests first,” Mr. Ryan said. “He is a legislative workhorse with a long track record of supporting policies that grow the economy, rein in out-of-control spending and expand opportunities for families and businesses.”
Tom Rice was censured by the South Carolina GOP over his vote to impeach Trump.
The Gateway Pundit reported:
The South Carolina GOP formally censured Rep. Tom Rice over his Trump impeachment vote.
“We made our disappointment clear the night of the impeachment vote. Trying to impeach a president, with a week left in his term, is never legitimate and is nothing more than a political kick on the way out the door,” South Carolina GOP Chairman Drew McKissick said in a statement Saturday afternoon.
“Congressman Rice’s vote unfortunately played right into the Democrats’ game, and the people in his district, and ultimately our State Executive Committee, wanted him to know they wholeheartedly disagree with his decision.”
