Likewise Reagan was no Reagan. By the time Reagan left office, he had:
1) Drastically increased Social Security taxes
2) Substantially increased Income taxes
3) Signed into the law this country’s first AMNESTY bill
4) Was in the process of tearing down the military he had worked so hard to build up in his first few years.
5) Shoved Bush-Sr. into the White House
After that, he went on to support the Brady Bill.

Straw man argument. Nobody is claiming that Trump is the "next Reagan" but Trump opponents love to claim that people are so they can use the Lloyd Bentsen line.
Actually there can be no other "Donald Trump" either. Both men are unique and can never be duplicated!

Reagan had class. He always was classy.
Trump talks and behaves like a low-life slime-ball.
The contrast is like day and night.

“Here lies both the irony and farce of the cult-like effort to anoint Trump as the second coming of Reagan”
Um, I seem to read more Cruz people try to make Cruz into Reagan. That includes Limbaugh, Beck, Levin, and many posters on this site.
At least one thing Trump has on Cruz, he actually met the man in person at the White House, while Ted was hitting the weed listening to Culture Club.

After that, he went on to support the Brady Bill.Why wouldn't he support the Brady Bill? Brady was his Press Secretary who was badly injured during the assassination attempt on President Reagan. Do you even think before you type?
