Hi all,

Think it'd be a good idea for us to hit the Trump/Ryan joint statement, and get our perspective in stories. Drafted something below.

DNC National Press Secretary Mark Paustenbach issued the following statement:

"Donald Trump and Speaker Ryan didn't have to issue a joint statement for the American people to know that they are on the same page and believe in the same dangerous and divisive agenda.  The fact of the matter is that despite some personal disagreements, they both support the old Republican playbook of cutting taxes for the rich at the expense of middle-class families, they both oppose measures like equal pay and paid family leave, and they both support reckless policies that would only to drag America back into a recession. We simply can't afford to go back to losing 800,000 jobs a month as the last Republican president left office."
