Did he need to?

It was a different congress.

“Can you give me an example where Reagan said forget the Republicans..I will join the Dem side of Congress on this.”

Can you give me an example where the repub congressmen and Senators back in the 80s attacked Reagan constantly, openly worked HARD against everything he ran on, launched endless investigations into his background, implied he was a racist and a Russian spy?

Reagan didn’t face deep globalist treason in his own party. That was back when the GOP was an America first party, not a globalist NWO party created by the Bush wing.

He said that Reagan compromised all the time, not the non-sequitur you posed in response. You’re conflating two things; stick to the idea of compromise and you might get a meaningful answer.

Other than McCain, Reagan didn’t have Trump’s problems.

You are correct. But there are plenty of examples where he compromised to “most” of what he wanted.

The issue is that the Republicans in Congress are not reliable. Do you think that LBJ would have ever run the Senate the way McConnel does?

We sent Trump to go there and get it done. Ryan and McConnel are upset because they didn’t get a chance to go for a longer term deal.

They would have talked for a month and still come up with what Trump got in an afternoon. With two massive natural disasters and the crap going on in Korea do you think that maybe there is a need for some urgency?
