Boehner On Trump: 'It's Going To Be A Wild Ride'
- 8 years ago
During a recent speech in Cleveland, John Boehner is quoted as saying about President-elect Donald Trump, 'He’s kind of a Democrat. He’s kind of a Republican...'
"Get ready, put your seatbelt on, it's going to be a wild ride," says John Boehner about Donald Trump's presidency.
The former Speaker of the House made these comments during a speech at The City Club of Cleveland on Friday.
At one point, Boehner is quoted as saying, "Finding a way to cut a deal is critically important if we are going to be successful in America. And I frankly think Donald Trump has the ability to do that. He’s kind of a Democrat. He’s kind of a Republican.He has no ideology so he's got nothing that's going to bind him from cutting a deal."
Boehner shared similar thoughts with VICE News in October, “He’s not a conservative— he’s barely a Republican. He kind of became a Republican in order to run. But his ideas, when you can get to them, are frankly more in the direction that I would want the country to go to than Hillary Clinton.”
About Trump's Presidency, he also said to the audience in Cleveland, “Let me tell you, get ready for a ride...all the rules we have seen..for many years, they are all gone."
