The sun has set on this breed of Republican. There’s nothing much Reagan-esque about it, despite what he says.
They’re very angry that the voters they used to count on finally held them accountable for their approach and have rejected them.

I remember asshats like him saying the same things about Reagan when proposing “Star Wars” and the like before the Soviet Union collapsed. Sometimes you have to break eggs to make an omelet.
