Ron Reagan Goes Scorched Earth On 'Traitor' Trump: My Dad Wouldn't Have Voted For Him
Ronald Reagan’s son lacerated Donald Trump in a scathing interview with The Daily Beast published Friday, saying his late father never would have voted for Trump.
“He would have been embarrassed and ashamed that a president of the United States was as incompetent and traitorous as the man occupying the White House now,” said Ron Reagan, 61. “He’s a disgrace to the office of the presidency.”
Reagan, speaking to the Beast from Italy, where he lives half the year, said if his father were alive today, he suspects the popular 40th commander in chief would say something like: “Our nation is at a real turning point. Our republic is in danger. Democracy is in danger, and we need to put somebody else in the White House because this man is betraying the country every single day he occupies the Oval Office.”
Because of Trump, it is “perhaps the most dangerous time for our republic in my lifetime, perhaps since the Civil War,” said the liberal commentator. Though Reagan’s views often clashed with his conservative father’s perspectives, he said his dad conducted his presidency with “dignity and class.”

Bad seed from The Gipper.
For my racing Friends, Reagan was Cigar, Trump Storm Cat.
As I understand it, ron jr lost his virginity in 1978 to kristine nelson (in his parents bed). Estranged wife of ricky nelson. A bodyguard snitched on junior to his parents. Nancy was outraged. Ronnie was relieved because to him this was confirmation that junior wasnt a homosexual.
Thanks for the link. Ron Jr.’s carrying on is heartbreaking. I sure do wish Maureen were here to deflect it along with the older brother.
Reagan would have loved Trump's:
strong economy
tax cuts
regulation cuts
negotiating skills
strong military
clear vision of greatness of America: freedom; natural rights; safety; peace; prosperity
Didn’t know about the curtains :-)
No, Reagan would probably not have voted for Trump. In the primary. In the general election against Hillary, yes.
Mom should have cut him out of the will so he would be living in a trailer park in Alabama rather than Italy “half the year.”
What a putz.
Ronald Reagan had two adopted kids who appreciated their father more. Too bad some of them did not rub off on his natural ingrates.
Ron, I Am Disappoint. — Ronald Reagan
Ron Reagan, atheist man of the year.
Absalom! Absalom!
I blame California schools.
In other news, Lucifer says God does not support Trump.
your complete and utter disgrace to the board, talkin about Trump doing something better than Reagan. Ronald Reagan was a great man and so many here love to forget that. His name should not be thrown in with any sentence with Trump if it’s just going to say something bad about him or say Trump is better about something. Read history. Read at all. You might come to a different conclusion. Trump is great. Reagan was great too. Your disgusting and vile tactics remind me of something someone from the dem party would say
That’s not true. Dems don’t turn on each other. Idiot Republicans do.
BS. Reagan would have wished for him to have a bit more decorum, but would have loved his policies and his willingness to fight.
Little Ronnie had daddy issues from Day 1, and never spoke for his father on political matters.
So says the godless leftist that didn’t vote for his father.
Being Christian, are we really required to pray for him? Seems like he has made his decision long ago and that’s that.
