Reagan was friendly, charming, self-deprecating, funny and a great communicator. Trump is crude, hateful, narcissistic, and even his humor is rude. If he had half the personality of Reagan, this would have been a red wave.

Correct. And there is the reason for optimism.

Bro. Owning the libs was way more important and so damn funny. Until it wasn’t.

If Trump had half the personality of Reagan, he would have retired in 2024 at the end of his second term.

Let’s be honest about something, dealing with Tip O’Neal was a whole lot easier than dealing with the modern day democrat party.

Ive read multiple biographies of Reagan, and I think he may have had the most fascinating life in the history of our country.. If not, he is certainly in the conversation .. I was very very young when he was POTUS, so I cant speak intelligently to his policies in that moment .


But, I am certain that if RWR were alive today- he would 100% be laughed out of today's Maga party, and he would be labeled a "RINO".. it is wildly ironic and borderline delusional that the Maga types revere him so much today .

Reagan had clear principals that he could explain. He worked with Congress to get things done. It wasn’t always about him. He would not have done the crazy and corrupt stuff Trump does daily.

And as they say, if my grandmother had wheels, she would have been a bike.

I'm not so sure. When O'Neill was speaker, the Democrats had controlled the House since 1931. O'Neill was always in a position of strength because of that, in spite of Reagan's popularity. Republicans in the House were impotent.

Reagan was my POTUS in my high school years and later serving in the Air Force. Loved those time.
