House Speaker Paul Ryan's primary election might not have made much news had it not been for Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump, who refused to endorse him last week. Then on Friday, Trump did endorse Ryan.

Here & Now's Jeremy Hobson takes a look at the race — and Ryan's Republican challenger, Paul Nehlen — with Marti Mikkelson of WUWM in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
