House Speaker Paul Ryan says the people generating racist graffiti in the wake of Donald Trump's election are "not Republicans" and "we don't want them in our party."
The Wisconsin congressman told CNN's "State of the Union" Sunday that, "People should really just put their minds at ease. We are pluralistic, we are inclusive... that's the kind of country we are still going to have."
He says he's "confident Donald Trump feels the same way."
Ryan was asked about reports or racist graffiti and hate crimes after Tuesday's presidential election.
Ryan said a border security enforcement bill would be the "first priority" once Trump takes office.
"We are not planning on erecting a deportation force. Donald Trump is not planning on that," Ryan said.
"That's not what we're focused on. We're focused on securing the border. We think that's first and foremost before we get into any other immigration issue. We've got to know who's coming and going in the country. We've got to secure the border."
