Except when the candidate and the Speaker of the House are so diametrically opposed on the major issues; ie immigration, Muslims, trade, abortion, taxes, entitlements, etc.
It will be Speaker Paul Ryan who decides which of these issues ever get to the floor to get voted on, not Donald Trump (should he become president). As Trump said this week all his proposals are only 'suggestions'.
