House Speaker Paul Ryan calls the president’s profane comments about African nations “unfortunate.” Witnesses say Trump asked members of Congress why the United States should admit immigrants from “s-hole countries” like Africa. Ryan wasn’t as harsh in his view of the comments as Democrats were, but the Wisconsin Republican said his ancestors were Irish. He praised Haitians who live in his hometown of Janesville. Ryan was speaking Friday at a public forum on the campus of the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee.
