<p>Donald Trump and Speaker Paul Ryan have both admitted they aren&rsquo;t ready to accept the other&rsquo;s agenda. But Ryan isn&rsquo;t the only powerful Republican hesitant, scared, or unwilling to accept the gregarious celebrity mogul as our standard bearer.  ; ;</p>
<p>Jeb Bush, who previously signed a pledge to support the GOP nominee, has since announced that he will not be attending the convention in Cleveland this summer. Trump doesn&rsquo;t seem to care. ;&ldquo;I&rsquo;m not a fan of Jeb and he said he was not going to come to the convention. Who cares? You know how many votes I&rsquo;m gonna lose because of Jeb not coming to the convention? I think I&rsquo;ll gain votes.&rdquo; ;</p>
<p>2012 Republican nominee Mitt Romney, who has been highly critical of both Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump, will also be absent this July. Rumor has it he&rsquo;s being courted to run as an Independent, which in my opinion would do little more than ensure a Clinton victory. ;Romney, who has sided with the #NeverTrump movement, says he won&rsquo;t be supporting &ldquo;either of the major party candidates at this point.&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;I see way too much demagoguery and populism on both sides of the aisle, and I only hope and aspire that we&rsquo;ll see more greatness,&rdquo; he says, adding that he will not be entering the race as an Independent. ;&ldquo;I&rsquo;m certainly going to be hoping we find someone who I have confidence in who becomes the nominee.&rdquo; Romney praised Paul Ryan for not supporting Trump, noting ;that he would love to see him run for president but that it is vital he remains Speaker during this turbulent time.</p>
<p>South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham is in the same camp, saying he cannot &ldquo;in good conscience&rdquo; vote for Donald Trump. &ldquo;I do not believe he is a reliable Republican conservative nor has he displayed the judgment and temperament to serve as Commander in Chief.&rdquo; ;Trump and Graham has a spat last year after Trump gave out the Senator&rsquo;s phone number and Graham retorted by calling him a &ldquo;jackass&rdquo; on CBS and posting a sarcastic &ldquo;how to destroy your phone&rdquo; video on Twitter.</p>
<p>Graham adds that he will not be attending this summer&rsquo;s convention. ;</p>
<p>Speaker Paul Ryan is the sole &ldquo;anti-Trump&rdquo; Republican mentioned here who hopes to eventually support the billionaire candidate. &ldquo;I&rsquo;m not there right now and I hope to be there and I want to&hellip;the bulk of the burden of unifying the Party will have to come from our presumptive nominee.&rdquo;</p>
<p>Trump replied to Ryan&#8217;s comment by saying virtually the same thing about the Speaker: &ldquo;I am not ready to support Speaker Ryan&rsquo;s agenda. Perhaps in the future we can work together and come to an agreement about what is best for the American people&hellip;&rdquo; ;</p>
<p>Meanwhile, RNC ;Chairman Reince Priebus has decided to broker a meeting between the two to help them &#8220;play nice.&#8221; The meeting is scheduled to take place this Wednesday in DC. ;</p>
