Reagan told a great joke at some convention....

A little was boy giving away "Democrat" kittens on the steps of the D.C. Capitol Building, and did have a few takers. A couple of weeks later the same boy on those same steps was giving away "Republican" kittens. A curious Senator walked over to the boy and questioned him: "You had Democrat kittens and now you have Republican kittens. What's the difference? The boy replied..."These kittens now have their eyes opened".

I LOVE The Great One.

I see it said about Donald Trump a lot “greatest president ever!”and he will Absolutely go down among the best.

But I also feel like it is fair weathered.

The Great One did a few decent things..like say..

1.Bring America back from the brink

2. Make us proud to be Americans again

3. Take down that little known entity called THE USSR!!

4. Started a 50 year (with some downturns) market surge.

5. Set a Great example of what a man should be for impressionable 12 year olds (when he was first elected) like me.

I felt so safe seeinghim st and wait for the 2nd election results in 1984.

I knew our lives were in the hands of someone special...

They are now too.

They are both Great.

They are not the same people and that’s a good thing.

And Trump is ROCKING!

But let’s not forget what The Great One did for us.

And as Al Michaels said “DO YOU BELIEVE IN MIRACLES?!

Yes, God sent them to us in the form of a bunch of young hockey playing kids, an ex actor and a real estate tycoon.

Thank You Lord.

At some point, even doubters like me are compelled to believe in miracles.
