WASHINGTON - Donald Trump has reversed course and endorsed House Speaker Paul Ryan for re-election, seeking to end deep divisions within the Republican Party and stem his presidential campaign's bleeding after several self-inflicted wounds. "But I need a Republican Senate and a House to accomplish all of the changes that we have to make." "In our shared mission to make America great again, I support and endorse our Speaker of the House Paul Ryan," he said, to cheers from the Green Bay crowd. "He's a good man and he's a good guy," Trump added, as he gave a thumbs up sign. We have to win this election," Trump told a rally in Ryan's home state of Wisconsin, as he stressed that an inclusive, "big tent" Republican Party is the only way to defeat Democrat Hillary Clinton in November's general election.
