House Speaker Paul Ryan will not accept the
presidential nomination of the Republican Party if GOP leaders seek him
as a savior candidate amid a contested convention this summer, an aide
said Wednesday.
"The speaker is grateful for the support, but he
is not interested. He will not accept a nomination and believes our
nominee should be someone who ran this year," spokeswoman AshLee Strong
said.
The statement comes after an avalanche of
speculation about Ryan as a possible compromise candidate for GOP
establishment leaders concerned about Donald Trump's march to the party
nod.
