This speech still gives me goosebumps. One of the great orators of modern times, and (in my opinion) the last truly great president this country has had. It is definitely worth a listen if you’ve never heard it, many of the points in this speech still hold true to this day. LINK

Unfortunately you will be downvoted, and persecuted against here. I loved Ronnie, and he very well may have been the best president ever.

Unfortunately I just got out on watch list for saying so.

Was it the best economy ever that produced that picture, maybe unprecedented tax cuts, peace in the Middle East, America first trade deals, etc?

He washed all that down the drain and ruined his legacy in 2 months but like I said prior to 11/3 he was a top 5 President easy.

peace in the Middle East

Then why the executive order to hide drone strike data? Too much peace we must hide it from the people?

His best speech in my opinion. And he gave this at a Goldwater fundraiser before he had any political aspirations.

Some folks who were there wondered if Reagan would be a better nominee than Goldwater.

and he was smart enough to outflank them and use the medium better than they did

Trump is not a conservative, by mimicking Obama and other Presidents that have misused Executive authority they undermine the basic tenants of separation of powers and our nations Constitutional design
ultimately leading to further erosion of States rights and centralization of power


you may like what Trump was trying to do , we may love the short term gains,, but American democracy is more than 4 years at a time
and if we don't understand we are only a part of history we do damage to our legacy

What a joke and stupid comment this is. Who gives a damn about two months or anything that doesn’t affect how much the government is robbing us for.

Come back and tell us how great Biden is when you pay your taxes next year, and 78 year old Beijing Biden’s cost of living increases become insane. Not to mention how amazing his Covid and any plan is.
