re: Does Reagan Hold the Same Cache Among Conservatives?

The 70s were low growth, high inflation... "Stagflation". It was a tough time. Reagan and Volker fixed it.

The military was a shambles after Vietnam. Reagan revived it.

The Soviet were dominant in the late 70's. Reagan broke them.

But he wasn't the same when he got shot. And, just like Trump, deep staters abounded in his administration. He opened the flood gates on immigration and we never recovered from it.

Good man. Solid President. In the end, just like with Trump, the deep state outlasted him.
