    I know its crazy how they think he was good person when trump played the same card he did. Reagan did a deal with the iranaians and trump did a deal with isreal. While reagan was telling them to tear down that wall he was shifting the tax burden away from the 1%. Same shithead different era.

          It took a lot more than Reagan. Trump is the consequence of the last 50 years of Republican (and Democrat, but less so) politics.

            Reagan destroyed way more than trump has so far. He gutted the tax base for the benefit of the wealthy and put the burden on the middle class. He got rid of the national mental health networks leading to the current homeless crisis. Trump is only possible because of the actions Reagan took. No matter which one is better or worse.

        If Trump didn’t get a second term, then Reagan probably goes down as having done more net damage to the country. Now it’s anyone’s game.
