Paul Ryan's tax plan was front-loaded to save many middle-class people a modest return at first.  In a few years that benefit will be reversed, so in the long term, many of the middle-class will ultimately be paying more in taxes.  By then, Ryan will be blaming the new Congresses for higher taxes for the middle-class and will not want to be blamed for adding even more debt and increasing the deficit.  It's like someone steals your car, totals it and then never gets blamed for it.

As an extremely lucrative payback, Ryan will probably be put on the Board of Directors of several large companies, in gratitude for how much they reaped from his tax plan.

Ryan also doesn't want to be a party to removing trump because in any future run for office there would be some trump voter backlash for his anti-trump action.

Ryan is getting out while the getting is good.
