Kennedy brought it down to 70. Reagan went to 50, then 28.

That was JFK/LBJ. Reagan cut from 70 to 50, the 50 to 28 and reformed the tax code.

The top rate was not 90% when Reagan got in office, and don’t forget while Reagan may have lowered tax rates he still raised taxes about 36 times in office.
