While Mr. Ryan keeps his eyes on getting through 2016, many of his Republican colleagues are clearly looking to 2020. Mr. Romney may be the biggest booster of a future Ryan White House campaign. “He has now seen the power of the bully pulpit,” said Bob Wood, a lobbyist and, like Mr. Ryan, a native Wisconsinite. Still, there are Republicans who have little use for Mr. Ryan’s reluctance to support Mr. Trump and say the time for hand-wringing has passed. But most eyes are currently on Mr. Ryan, his demurrals notwithstanding.
