It’s not fair to try to compare Trump to Reagan. Reagan’s overarching mission was to weaken and destroy the Soviet Union. Everything else was secondary to him, and he was willing to compromise to maintain that focus. Even so, he accomplished additional great things. As with all who followed him, Trump is the beneficiary of Reagan’s greatness, and governs in a world far different than that Reagan inherited. Both are great Presidents, for whom we should be very grateful.

Hardly. What Reagan did was 35 years before Trump. The Russian were in the Middle East helping to UN stabilize it and took over Crimea when Trump took over. Reagan compromised on illegals and gave them amnesty. Trump deported and built a wall. Reaganlet Ted Kennedy run amok on medical care setting up for Obamas disaster. Trump is getting rid of the regulations to bring the costs down. Reagan also had Dems that would vote for him as well as Repulicans that supported to him. Everything Trump has accomplished has had 100% pushback from Democraps and he has had to even fight his own party, resulting in us loosing the house, but he still goes on. If Reagan has even 1/10th of the negative press and the investigations, he would have been dead of a heart attack before his first term. Trump is all balls....and they clank. And yes I rank him far above Reagan. Perhaps in the top 5 of greatest Presidents of all time.
