Look, I have studied history and watched House of Cards, I know how the Presidency works please. Also, actions aside, Obama and JFK were great orators, far better than Trump

    In the operating room, Reagan removed his oxygen mask to joke, "I hope you are all Republicans." The doctors and nurses laughed, and Dr Giordano Joseph (head of the trauma team) a liberal Democrat, replied, "Today, Mr. President, we are all Republicans."
    Just wow. Humanity above all.

      That's the difference between the political climate of the '80s, and today. The aisle was not so wide and there was a sense of humor about things. You'd never see the Gipper call his opponents "losers" or "sad" or mock them on the podium.

And there was no vice president in the 1980s making a public threat to a foreign country (Ukraine) that if they did not fire the prosecutor going after his son (Biden) they would not get the billion dollars !!

    When President Reagan was rushed to George Washington University Hospital after the assassination attempt and was operated on, he had a brief stay of a few days. My Mom was a cancer patient there at the same time. Reagan received countless flower arrangements wishing him a speedy recovery. He sent them on to other patients, with a hand written note that he had composed and written himself and signed, wishing them well. My Mom received one of these with the note, and was overjoyed that the President had sent her flowers. It made her very happy. What a kind and human gesture!

      We all do Sir. For a gifted world calming peace leader he stood with strength and a modest self opinion that appealed to everyone. Statesmanship should be taught in Political Sciences today, but, I am afraid we are surrounded by idiots that prefer to throw gasoline on the fires of division instead of light hearted humor that eases all. A truly lost art form. We indeed LOVE Ronald Reagan for his guidance and historical prowess that will likely never be surpassed. I remember one specifically: "I think you all know that I've always felt the nine most terrifying words in the English language are: I'm from the Government, and I'm here to help."
      Though perhaps genuinely they would like to help the overburden of trying typically causes more harm than good due to bureaucracy and red tape. Today with the Criminal Justice System being weaponized against ANYONE that speaks out about topics the Demoratz do not agree with, makes you suspect by definition and traitorous by inference.

      Reagan ran for president campaigning that he’d eliminate the national debt and would remove the departments of education and energy. Yes, you read that right. The debt had come to 800 billion in 200 years. Before he had left it had more than doubled. His plan was to eliminate unnecessary programs and spending. Welfare? He gave a famous speech citing the Chinese proverb “if you give a man a fish, he’ll eat for a day. If you teach a man to fish, he’ll eat for the rest of his life” Then he cut both welfare and education. Government health programs? Slash. He continued doing this until anything that remotely benefited the common man had been ruined. Then he proceeded to spend many times more than what he removed on military. Ludicrous projects like spending billions renovating obsolete WWII battleships that had no purpose and are being dismantled as we speak. He was an actor and the American people loved it.

In reality however, the housing bubble that was created by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and FHA loans that came in under Clinton is what caused the 08 crash, not deregulation. And he ruined the country?! Yeah its been completely ruined since the 80s. Thats hilarious. You, my simple little friend, are a dumb little liberal puppet that believes whatever nonsense some wackos are telling you.

      Reagan ran for president campaigning that he’d eliminate the national debt and would remove the departments of education and energy. Yes, you read that right. The debt had come to 800 billion in 200 years. Before he had left it had more than doubled. His plan was to eliminate unnecessary programs and spending. Welfare? He gave a famous speech citing the Chinese proverb “if you give a man a fish, he’ll eat for a day. If you teach a man to fish, he’ll eat for the rest of his life” Then he cut both welfare and education. Government health programs? Slash. He continued doing this until anything that remotely benefited the common man had been ruined. Then he proceeded to spend many times more than what he removed on military. Ludicrous projects like spending billions renovating obsolete WWII battleships that had no purpose and are being dismantled as we speak. He was an actor and the American people loved it.
