Trump is 'much more disciplined': Ryan

WASHINGTON, Sept 8: House Speaker Paul Ryan says Hillary Clinton has been so confident she’ll win the presidential election that she’s “playing not to lose.” And the Wisconsin Republican says when you do that prematurely, you’re likely to lose anyway.

He also had rare words of praise Dold Trump, saying the mercurial GOP nominee “has gotten much more disciplined.” Ryan used a sports alogy to describe the presidential race Thursday on “The Hugh Hewitt Show,” a conservative talk radio program.

He said that in only the game’s second quarter, Clinton started “stalling, not talking to the press, not doing many events.” And he said, “When you play not to lose so early in the game, you probably end up losing.” Ryan credited Trump’s newfound steadiness to campaign mager, Kellyanne Conway. (AP)
