Reagan was not perfect then neither was George Washington see The Whiskey Rebellion.

But it is a lesson worth remembering. Reagan did several things that cut conservatives to the core but he needed help, politically, in building the coalition to win the Cold War. And that was worth it.

If some protectionist measures sway the anti-trade democrats into the Trump camp then it will be worthwhile.
