Let’s not forget to put Ronald Reagan in that group, as much as I admire the man. He signed into law (with his own hand) the Immigration and Control Act of 1986 which was the first instance of “amnesty” for illegal immigrants, among other unpalatable aspects of the act.

Along with that act was the promise to secure the border.....but promises mean nothing to democrats.

Agreed. I have not forgotten. I have excoriated Reagan on a number of issues, including the 1983 Beirut barracks bombing, and have been labeled many terms as a result.

No leader is perfect. Reagan is a fitting example. Which is why we must always be vigilant rather than submit to emotional/irrational bonds that blind many to reality.
