So about this... I'm on the Romney mailing list since I donated to his campaign and apparently he's now doing a big fundraising mailer on behalf of Ryan for Congress. The letter even has a few backhanded attacks on Trump and Palin, saying "Ryan has never been one to engage in the divisive, hurtful politics of personal destruction and yet he is facing ugly attacks thanks to his courageous leadership."
Well, it's not wrong. The moment he was coerced into the Speakership the Tea Party started jumping down his throat for failing to shut the government down over every single bill. Then the Trumpists took command and the rest is history.
