Look up the RR film clip of "I am paying for this microphone..." and that should answer your question.
Reagan was a nut case
Can't let him near the nuclear button
This was said by the GOP
He did things his way and yes he worked with Democrats , see Boston liberal House Speaker Tip O' Neil
Reagan was always a classy adult not a rude vicious narcissistic clown like the NY liberal.
Certainly you’re not comparing Reagan’s “I’m paying for this microphone” to Trump’s near-daily dramatics, are you?
