Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) has indicated that he might skip the party’s national convention this year if former President Donald Trump is chosen as a nominee, blaming election losses on the former president—a claim that Trump rebutted in a social media post.

When asked about where he will be during the July 2024 Republican National Convention scheduled in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Ryan replied that “it depends on who the nominee is. I’ll be here if it’s somebody not named Trump,” said in an interview given to WISN. As to endorsing Trump in the primary, Ryan said: “I don’t know. I haven’t thought about it. Right now, I’m just for a non-Trump candidate because I think we’ll win if we nominate somebody else … anybody but Trump right now for me.”
