If you are asking me if I disagree with what Reagan did, I do. But he was a giant among migets. He united his party, not divided it.

Did granting amnesty to three million illegals unite the party?

Did cutting-and-running after 240 Marines were murdered in Lebanon unite the party?

Did raising taxes, twice, unite the party?

Are these things the GOP ought to be doing, today, to unite the party, since Reagan did them?

Quite frankly, I cannot even remember him granting Amnesty
It certainly did not divide the party

REAGAN and the GOP did not control all three branches
of Gov, as I am sure you are aware. He had a democratic congress(Tip O'Neil) and a Democratic Senate. Yet they feared him, with good reason.

Today we control all three branches of Gov and govern like the minority.
