The problem with Eisenhower was he was part of the problem. Eisenhower’s massive taxes is what got Reagan interested in running for office.

Eisenhower knew the mistakes he made—and was warning all of us of a dark future.

Sometimes you need to fail in order to learn.

” Eisenhower’s massive taxes “

Since Congress controls tax law it’s bizarre that you think that those taxes were Eisenhower’s doing. Moreover he had a Republican Congress for only two years, ‘52 to ‘54.

Those same tax rates had been in effect since WWII. And due to a plethora of exemptions in the tax code the effective rate was never the 90% top rate.
