2020: Paul Ryan vs. Hillary Clinton

[Suburbia]

Republican House Speaker Paul Ryan wins the Republican presidential nomination and faces off against Democratic President Hillary Clinton who is facing some unpopularity due to a 2019 economic downturn. Who wins?

Did he have an alternative she vetoed, and then the House passed a moderate Democrat budget in 2019 and 2020?

If he had retired in 2018, he would have a better chance as an outsider unassociated with the government that started the recession.

However:

332: Ryan/Sandoval(53.1%)
206: Clinton/Brown(45.6%)
Others: 1.3%

I assume Paul Ryan has to go through a very rough primary process, so I'd say Toss-up. I don't view another massive recession as especially likely. Maybe a smaller one.
