Defiant Trump dismisses GOP critics before Ryan meeting

WASHINGTON (AP) — Donald Trump brushed off his Capitol Hill critics on Wednesday, declaring he doesn't need House Speaker Paul Ryan or other leery Republican leaders, even as he prepared to sit down with them. His defiant message came amid new signs that he might be right, with GOP voters becoming more willing to embrace him.
