EXCERPT:

RYAN: "Yeah, I’m not a culture war guy. I think it’s really polarizing. Look, on some of these issues I’ll side with the anti-woke crowd, but to me, I’m worried about the debt crisis. I'm worried about the future of our country and China. There are big policy problems that we need to tackle if we want to have a great 21st century for this country. My work at AEI, Notre Dame and my poverty foundation, all about poverty and upward mobility. You know, what I worry about are the big policy challenges that are going unresolved or made worse by Joe Biden. So that’s why I want to win this election, so we can actually fix these big policy problems. Culture war politics is good primary election politics, it's very divisive, but it's effective politics, I'll grant you that. But for me, I’m an old Jack Kemp guy. I believe in inclusive, aspirational politics. Solve problems. We’ve got huge problems. We have a debt crisis coming, we have to get on top of that. Neither Biden or Trump are good on this issue, so pull from these people."
