Yes, Ronald Reagan would run as hard as he could against the RINO. But, he wouldn’t take down the party doing it.

The only ones who are any threat to "take down the party" are RINOs.

You must not remember the election of 1976. Gerald Ford was the Rockefeller Republican (like Rudy). Ford was also the incumbent president. Reagan took him to the mat in the primaries and at the national convention and almost pinned him. The Party was cleaved cleanly in half.

It never reached the point that the party left him...I suspect he would put the future of America over mere party loyalty. He was an American, with a great dream for America first; a republican second. He would not have sacrificed America’s future to the altar of the Republican party...but he would have worked hard to get the party where it ought to be, given the choice.

I do believe the man had principles and wouldn't at that point. What would he do today? The "party" isn't what is was then. Wish he was here, I can't believe he'd go for today's offerings.
