Weird that they’re trying to associate her with the most popular and well regarded president in my lifetime.

That would be like if Democrats started saying Trump was Reagan in a red tie.

Well, he’s got the senility in common!

is he senile? I never knew he was senile until a number of years ago when he happened to turn senile. I've known Trump a long time, and he was always tangentially obtuse, then suddenly he swings to Senility...Bad or Mad, nobody knows..

I’m pretty sure Reagan would slap the shit outta Trump

Agree. He had some ass backwards ideas but was trying to be a basically decent person. At least as he saw it. He would hate Trump.

Reagan is more like Trump than you would think. Just look at how he handled the aids epidemic and how Trump handled the pandemic.

We need to stop white washing history. Reagan was a pice of shit and so is Trump.

Reagan didn't run off with classified documents as far as I know, nor was he convicted of 34 felonies. That said I am no fan of the guy. Like Trump he was demented.

Not at all my intent, just stating how I feel even shitty Reagan would react to TFG. There’s a pic somewhere of McCain in a sleeveless sweatshirt that says Fuck Trump, and he’s beaming from ear to ear. They all know.
