"We shouldn't just pretend our party is unified when we know it is not," Ryan told the Wall Street Journal. "We can't fake it, we can't pretend. We have to actually unify." Indeed, there are some irreconcilable differences between Ryan and Trump on key issues. These aren't small differences -- like whether health-care reform should have an individual mandate, or whether the minimum wage should be increased to $12 an hour or $15. They are significant differences that go right at the heart of what it means to be a Republican. And we haven't even discussed Trump's call in the past month to raise taxes on the wealthy, although he appears to have retreated to the standard GOP line here. Ryan holds his usual press conference on Capitol Hill at 10:00 am ET.  Click for more.
