Tough to know. It all exists solely because of social media

Reduced taxes and gave away more free things so that future generations would have to pay for it?

Like a freakin Boss. They don't make em like that any more.

IDK but dissatisfaction with how incumbent Pat Brown handled the Watts Riots propelled Reagan to the governorship of California.

Pass some gun laws, probably. He liked to do that.

Nancy didn't start speaking for him until late second term.

In an extremely controversial move, for which he never apologized, Reagan declared a state of emergency and sent in 2,200 National Guard troops. He enacted a curfew and banned public assembly for two weeks. The National Guard patrolled the streets of Berkeley, dispersing any crowd of four or more. It wasn’t pretty, but they restored order.

Someone in the crowd shouts that Reagan should have negotiated with the students. Reagan, with the incredulity of someone who understands that youth don’t run the world for a reason, says: “Negotiate? What is to negotiate? All of it began the first time some of you who know better and are old enough to know better let young people think that they have the right to choose the laws they would obey as long as they were doing it in the name of social protest.”
Good stuff.

Ban more guns? Spend more money? Dude was a train wreck for the US.

He probably would've posted on the poli board, but I don't want to assume things

Made some great jokes about them. Crush them. Win over democrats.

He was the last of a breed, but it's a product of the times. Hollywood became active against Reagan and started a whole new level of patronizing. Pop culture then invaded politics.
Reagans great value was communications and putting people at ease. Even those that hated him respected his authority.

Same way he bitch-slapped those air traffic controllers.

President Reagan would've come down hard with a whole lot of law and order and would not give one shite about pandering to democrat constituencies like Trump does today.
