Reagan’s daughter: My dad would be ‘appalled’ by Trump presidency

Ronald Reagan would be “appalled” by the Trump presidency, daughter Patty Davis tells the Washington Post.

In a letter written on the occasion of the anniversary her father’s June 5, 2004 death, Davis said Reagan would be “pretty horrified at where we’ve come to.”

“He would be appalled and heartbroken,” she wrote, “at a Congress that refuses to stand up to a president who not only seems ignorant of the Constitution but who also attempts at every turn to dismantle and mock our system of checks and balances.”

Davis, 65, doesn’t mention Trump by name; she does make mention of how she’d once publicly criticized another president — her father.

Did she recently come out of a decade long coma?

Indeed. Which makes his accomplishments so far all the more remarkable.

No. RR was as perceptive as DJT. RR would have understood that Trump is the only possible-up to Reagan at this point.

That seems to be the new path the left is going down now, they have decided that they are just going to ignore the facts utterly and completely and start pushing a fantasy reality.

breaking the constitution and a do nothing congress?...sounds like the barry yrs....

there's been nothing illegal or unconstitutional with the present administration...

and Reagan, when he met Trump decades ago, felt he was shaking the hand of the president,not vice versa...

We don't really know if it is "save for assassination attempts." Reagan probably did not have Security as good as Trump's and a quietly foiled attempt with, perhaps, an equally quiet payback might be judged more useful to the ongoing Trump project.

I rather doubt that RR had extensive private security and I don't doubt that DJT does have that.

RR would be appalled by his daughter’s behavior.

“Reagan - as an actor - mastered the TV age.
Trump has mastered the social media/digital age.”

Wow, absolutely so true! Both would have never been elected if that wasn’t so!

Bingo! Putting the DJT phenomenon in one short observation.

If Ronald could hear me in heaven right now, I’d say, Ronnie you were a great guy and president, but with all due respect, maybe you should have spent a little more time with the family.

Is that the same daughter that paused on Playboy with a black guy to stick it to dad? ... after snorting some coke for good measure because a hypocrite princess like her cannot go with a black guy without some kind of drug assistance...

Reagan was the right man for his time and Trump is the right man in these times. In between, we’ve had a bunch of nincompoops.

Yeah, she wanted to stick it to him on Playboy and that spoiled child woman apparently has ever grown up. She is not a standard to guess what her dad would say, as she paused nude with a virtual Obama in a symbolic gesture that dad was not her prez

I seriously doubt Mr. Reagan would have disapproved of Trump as President but I know he would have disapproved of obama.

After 8 years of Constitutional violations by the Muslim brotherhood administration I’m appalled she has said such a thing.
