If you are saying Reagan was a better president than the Bushes, and the democrats, I give you a resounding yes.
The fact remains, rewarding bad behavior will never stop bad behavior. It will always encourage more bad behavior.
Once Reagan gave blanket amnesty to ALL illegals, it guaranteed a huge influx of more illegals. And that is exactly what happened. Let us accept this fact that Reagan did not understand basic psychology and move on.
GHW Bush did not enforce the laws of our nation.
THAT AND NOT REAGAN’S ACTIONS, CAUSED THE INFLUX OF INCREASED LEVELS OF ILLEGAL ALIENS?
What part of that is too complex for you to grasp?
Are you aware of what took place in Danbury, Connecticut back in 2009?
“DANBURY, Conn. (AP) Scores of immigrants are fleeing this western Connecticut city, residents say, as the economy falters and the police department begins a partnership with federal immigration officials that puts more pressure on illegal immigrants.”
“Immigrants aren’t so sure. Barbara Levitt, 58, owner of the Upscale Downtown consignment shop, said immigrant-owned stores began disappearing after the City Council applied to the immigration program.
“You could drive down this street, and you could see, all of a sudden, there were all these ‘for rent’ signs,” she said. “People just left town.”
GHW Bush and his whole family have been miserable on this.
Where the laws have been enforced, illegal aliens and crime have dropped.
This anti-Reagan nonsense ignores everything but Reagan’s actions, and I’m not buying off on it.
I didn’t agree with Reagan’s actions, but blaming him is just wrong-headed, and is helpful to the Left as they try to trash his legacy. I’ll have no part of it.
