As a True Conservative Republican and President then, He was good, untill like Him now, lost it.

Today, he would not have a chance being elected by Republicans,

Either Washington or Jackson.


I’ll add Teddy Roosevelt, I watched a documentary on him and his exploits are too long to mention here. He was a little badass.

Reagan was incredibly quick witted. I’d love to have a president today with the ability to communicate like he did

No one that intelligent interjects into politics any more really. The ones that do aren’t willing to subject their families to the maw of modern American politics. They’re backbenchers that resign after 3/4 House terms or limit themselves to state office, etc.

If you want Reagan-esque political discourse, you’re basically stuck indefinitely with Aaron Sorkin’s screenwriting.

Reagan was a patriot and a fine President. But he passed the buck on illegal immigration and is a big part of the reason why we have all these fricking aliens in our country.

I like the joke he told about the woman who was remarrying and wanted a white dress for her second wedding, insisting she was as innocent/pure as a virgin bride. "My first husband was a Democrat. All he did was sit on the bed and tell me how good it was going to be."

So what? So the truth doesn't matter if it gets in the way of a story? If he had acted like it wasn't a big deal 2 months later with his wound still healing, yeah that is really badass. But that is about 72 months later. It is a pretty big difference. Regan has enough badass moments that we don't need to make up shite
I think you are analyzing this too much Pele.

For that to resonate you have to have a populace that can understand him.

We're quickly becoming an illiterate society.

It is estimated that only 12-13%% of American citizens are currently literate enough to be capable with complex arguments and abstract concepts.

Over half of adults in America today read at or below a sixth grade level.

20% of Americans struggle with everyday literacy tasks. (See above)

Really???

So Reagan was the reason why 25 million illegals were allowed into our country from Jan of 2021 to Jan 2025????

That wasn't brain dead corpse, Joe Biden that let the illegals in our country? That was Reagan that flooded our country 21 years after he died?

Don't besmirch Ronald Reagan. He isn't the reason we have this massive problem today. Joe Biden owns this problem.

The only people that hate Reagan exist on Reddit. It’s a bizarro world there. There are entire subreddits that are adamant that Jimmy Carter was a far better president than Reagan. Oh and Mother Theresa was a monster.
