GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ) – As he counts down the days until he leaves Congress, U.S. Rep. Reid Ribble (R-Wisconsin) is talking about President-elect Donald Trump.
Ribble, who did not support Trump in November’s election, says the business mogul won and the debate should end.
“For the good of the country, we need President Trump to be very, very successful and we should be praying toward that end,” Ribble told Midwest Communications’ talk show host Jerry Bader Thursday.
However, Ribble says he should be criticized by lawmakers on Capitol Hill and Americans if it’s warranted. And in his view, there’ve been some strange occurrences during this transition process.
“At this tech summit he had the other day, his 3 kids and his son-in-law were sitting at the table. There were only like 20-25 people there, 15 to 16% were his children? That’s just a little bizarre,” explained Ribble. “He’s requiring all these potential cabinet posts to provide tax returns, and yet the American people have never had a chance to see what conflicts he may have because he’s never given his tax return.”
Ribble, of course, pointed out that he’s more than happy that Democrat Hillary Clinton did not win November 8th’s election.
