Knowing what we know now about the CIA (and have for decades) was this the intelligence community involved or informed about all things Reagan?

Watch the Octopus Murders on Netflix. It will explain everything.

Swampy Deep State doing Swampy Deep State things.
As the OP said watch Octopus Murders. Everything is connected. The Bushes have been involved with and in our Government almost since the very beginning.

Because they planned to take Reagan out, just like they took out JFK.

To attract right-center Republicans. This is not a hard question.

Bush and Reagan got pretty nasty (not anywhere close to this past primary ,but nasty by back then standards).
There was thought that they needed to make nice and come together to heal that.

It’s all spooks, everywhere. Sit back, enjoy the show, and hope they end up doing something in our favor soon.

Deep State wasn't going to give control to Reagan...

Bush Sr was the establishment GOP’s choice for candidate, and Reagan pulled the rug out from under them. So they shoehorned their guy into 2nd place.

Because Reagan wanted to win.

One consideration was that Bush was an 18 y.o. Navy Air Pilot who served in WWII. That contrasted with Reagan's background as a Hollywood actor.

It was a time similar to today. The country club republicans were offended at an actor becoming president. So when Reagan won the nomination, they threatened to withhold financial support unless he caved on Bush
Bush was one of them
Bush was one of them
