What?

I think Trump’s a better communicator than Reagan.

Both President Trump and The Gipper are/were great communicators but I give the edge to President Trump for the simple fact that he’s had to combat the unprecedented onslaught of negative publicity.

Remember, too, that CNN was launched about the same time Reagan was elected and was the only 24-hour news channel.
Moreover, Reagan never had anything like social media to contend with, platforms that President Trump has truly mastered to deliver his message unfiltered.

God Bless President Trump and may he be reelected in an historic landslide in 2020. I’ll turn 60 years-old that year.

Reagan had a very pleasant air about him and often a twinkle in his eye when he talked about his opponents. His smile was infectious and seemed non-threatening to most observers. It disarmed his political opponents though.

If I could give DJT a piece of advice, it would be to develop a nice smile when announcing good news. When tweeting, perhaps add a cute emoji when appropriate. Do not underestimate ‘likeability’.
