“If he tries to defund Planned Parenthood, if he tries to kick people off their health insurance, if he tries to privatize Medicare and cut taxes for the wealthy, we are going to have a ‘Youngstown street fight’ in the Capitol,” Ryan said on CNN’s “State of the Union.”
He added that Trump’s infrastructure proposals look like “a bunch of smoke and mirrors and corporate giveaways.”
Ryan, whose district stretches from Youngstown, Ohio to Akron, is running against Pelosi to become the Democratic leader in the House, saying the party needs to go in a new direction.
“I know in my heart we cannot win the House back under current leadership,” he said.
“We’ve got to move in another direction.”
