Oh please. I was working in journalism in the 80s, and the liberal media back then despised Reagan with every fiber of their being.

Substitute Ike for Reagan and Reagan for Trump and this column would have shown Dem thought in 1980. The past Gop Potus were Hitler until the new guy arrives. Then they become statesmen.

Yes, and I am sure that the LA Times wrote all about how much “hope” Reagan offered when he was President. I am sure they were big fans.

Warmonger, racist, senile, simpleton, etc. They called him everything.

Now?

He’s the ideal.

Really? Look at who you, your paper, and the MSM put into office despite the peoples' wishes.

Which means Trump is winning in all sectors; when a good person is vilified you know they’re doing something good.

Trump runs away with double-digit lead over Biden!

New general election poll finds:

Biden is unpopular on age, border security and the economy!

By Anders Hagstrom Fox News:: Published September 24, 2023 10:54am EDT

Former President Donald Trump is currently leading President Biden by 10 points among voters, according to a new poll.

The Washington Post and ABC released the poll Sunday, which found that if the 2024 presidential election were held today, Trump would win 52% to 42% over Biden.

Respondents also held a poor view of Biden’s handling of the economy and the U.S.-Mexico border, in addition to his age.

The Post downplayed the results of its own poll after it showed Trump with such a commanding lead, however.

“The sizable margin of Trump’s lead in this survey is significantly at odds with other public polls that show the general election contest a virtual dead heat,” the Post wrote Sunday. “The difference between this poll and others, as well as the unusual makeup of Trump’s and Biden’s coalitions in this survey, suggest it is probably an outlier.”

More bad polling news for Trump haters on both sides! From Gallop!

WASHINGTON, D.C. — As Joe Biden begins his reelection campaign, his job approval rating among the U.S. public has slipped to 37%, the lowest Gallup has measured for him to date. Biden’s job approval has been in the low 40% range for most of the past 19 months, apart from the current reading and a 38% score last July.

Liberal scum in the 80s: “Reagan’s murdering aids patients. He’s literally Hitler!”

Liberal scum now: “Reagan was cool but Trump is literally Hitler!”

PUHLEEEZE.

The democrats and media hated Reagan with just as much vitriol as they hate Trump. They wanted Reagan in prison just the same.

Well George.... if you really want to compare presidents....

let’s.

Last I checked, Trump didn’t lie under oath (”I did not have sexual relations with that woman, Ms. Lewinsky”).

And...last I checked, Trump didn’t make violent threats like Obama did...on a consistent basis....

“** Obama: “They Bring a Knife…We Bring a Gun”
** Obama to His Followers: “Get in Their Faces!”
** Obama on ACORN Mobs: “I don’t want to quell anger. I think people are right to be angry! I’m angry!”
** Obama to His Mercenary Army: “Hit Back Twice As Hard”
** Obama on the private sector: “We talk to these folks… so I know whose ass to kick.“
** Obama to voters: Republican victory would mean “hand to hand combat”
** Obama to lib supporters: “It’s time to Fight for it.”
** Obama to Latino supporters: “Punish your enemies.”
** Obama to supporters: “I’m itching for a fight.”
Obama to UAW mob: “Fight for me!”

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2016/08/flashback-obama-threatens-gop-bring-knife-bring-gun/

And.... also, last I checked, Trump didn’t sell out America to the ChiComs for a few million in bribe money... cover for his criminal, drug-addled son....nor did he get the US involved in a proxy war with Russia that effectively launders US taxpayer money for the Democrat coffers and that can and probably will ignite WW III, which will quite possibly be a nuclear war.

So no, George... I bet to differ. Because Trump....even with all his warts and foibles and flaws... at least never did any of what Clinton, Obama and Biden have done TO America. So screw yew, George. And the Marxist Democrat jack@ss you rode in on.

I don’t agree. Reagan didn’t have to deal with 20% of the nations kids identifying themselves as homosexual and almost 40% of females covered in tattoos. I don’t remember BLM and domestic communist riots in the 80s supported by most politicians. Reagan never had to face joint chiefs of the military that were all in for marxism and faggotry.
And NOBODY supported Russia except Phil Donahue, Sam Donelson, Armand Hammer and the very worst minority of the democrats. But there was nothing even close to widespread support for Russia.
The idea of trying to enrich China would have been seen as insane.
Reagan could have risen to today’s challenges, but we don’t have him. We have Trump and he is willing to fight.

Interestingly, everyone who loved the USSR in the Reagan era despises Russia today. All of them...
