Reagan got punked? Are you smoking crack?
No Tempest, I don't use drugs.
Maybe it's the word "punked" you don't like. That's fine, how about bamboozled or blindsided? His fault was in believing the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986 would be enforced and in not insisting on securing our borders before signing the Act into law.
Ronald Reagan was and remains one of our greatest presidents, but none have been faultless.
