I know what you are saying. But Reagan had a democrat Congress to contend with. And he could not foresee how the Left would control the Courts all the way to the top. Homosexual normalization was not even on the radar in his time.
We have the benefit of hindsight.
Your criticism of Ronald Reagan for his decisions is analogous to criticizing the Founders for not outlawing slavery in the final draft of the Constitution.
But I have also remarked in the past year that Ted Cruz could surpass Ronald Reagan. I am impressed with this knowledge and quickness. You see what he has done today. He’s been doing these kinds of responses since the first day he was in office. And his words are his words, not the words conforming with poll data.
Still I give RR the greatest respect because he was the first to take on the establishment, the Left and Communism.
RR was the greatest President in the last 50 years but he was no saint, and Ted Cruz will be even better, partially because he will learn from RR errors.
