EL Trumpo says that his movement is bigger than Reagan’s, because why not say you’re better than the greatest president in the last generation?
From Bloomberg:
Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump said he’s building a movement bigger than that of former President Ronald Reagan.
“I think that the closest thing I can think of is Reagan, but I don’t think it’s the intensity that we have,†the billionaire told Mark Halperin and John Heilemann of Bloomberg’s With All Due Respect just minutes after he finished a rousing speech to a capacity crowd of 10,000 inside a Pensacola, Florida, arena on Wednesday night.
“Now, Reagan had a little bit of this, but I don’t think to the same extent—but he also won,†Trump said.
Trump sought to emphasize that those who turned out to see him speak weren’t simply there for entertainment value.

Wow...the ego on this person never ceases to amaze.
In the tradition of John Lennon - for those who recall that.
“but he [Reagan] also won”
Trump hasn’t won anything yet.
Precisely, the first thing that came to my mind.
If Trump was the two-term Governor of New York, maybe he’d have a case.
He isn't worthy to shine President Reagan's shoes.
'Course, if Reagan had access to the internet and other outlets Trump has access to, Reagan would've been bigger than Reagan, too.
I’m beginning to come to the conclusion that the whole lot of these GOP candidates are losers. God help us.
This is what is really creepy about Donald trump. It does not take much imagination to see some serious problems that could come from his ego.
Perhaps FR can use the money from the current Freepathon to get someone to correct this cut and paste crap. It's getting annoying.
El Sooper has a severe case of TDS. He (or she as the case may be. Nobody has ever seen El Sooper without his or her mask on) should seek professional help.
In Lennon’s case, he actually said it.
Trump’s been trying to keep his megalomania in it’s box... But it’s busting at the seems, wanting to burst out like a Howard Dean YYYARRRRGGGGHHHH!?
Just what America needs as an image, because being nice has allowed almost every single nation on earth to walk all over us, better to be looked upon as rude, obnoxious, mean or a bully, cause its now going to END.
Trump is doing strategically what MUST be done, stand the ground and tell the world who is boss.
No more bending over and kissing arses.
I’ve been a Cruz guy but from the beginning have determined to support either of these two and no one else. But Donald is really testing my resolve.
Trumps is referring to the crowds and he is 100% correct, he is bigger in that respect. Cruz fanboys are just angry because at his “rallies” he may get 50 people to a few hundred. Trump is a steamroller!
You know, I was around during the Reagan campaign. He was the first presidential election I could vote in.
Trump is not lying here; Reagan (or anyone else) did not garner these kinds of crowds or support. In the primary or the general election.
He is speaking the truth.
only the cruzers are irritated by Trump.... let the schlonging continue
