Reagan believed in rollback, not merely containment. In 1980, the Soviets had nukes, so preventing them from getting them was hardly an option. But let us note that The American Dhimmi oppose all actual efforts at ballistic missile defense, while pretending to support in theory. That is unless publishing a leftist surrenderist, which they often do, because their evening star is dhimmitude, not conservatism.
Reagan believed in rollback, not merely containment.
Yes, but Reagan knew rollback could happen - he made it happen - without getting the US into wars. Unlike Bush Jr., who I voted for twice, but who turned out to be a failed president who ushered in the rule of Obama, in large part because of Bush’s disastrous decision to invade Iraq. There are statues to Reagan in the countries he liberated without getting the US into any wars. Are there any statues to Bush in Iraq? Have the Shiites who now run that country named any streets after Bush?
