WASHINGTON (AP) – The Latest on the U.S. presidential race (all times EDT):

7:55 a.m.

Donald Trump says that House Speaker Paul Ryan is hurting his campaign.

Trump sent out a tweet Tuesday saying that despite “winning the second debate in a landslide (every poll), it is hard to do well when Paul Ryan and others give zero support!”

The tweet comes a day after Ryan effectively abandoned Trump. He told Republican lawmakers on a conference call Monday that he would not campaign for Trump and would focus instead on helping the party keep control of the House.
