President Donald Trump hands down won throwback Thursday with an epic snap he shared showing him on stage standing next to Ronald Reagan.
In the fantastic black-and-white shot, we get to see Trump rocking a black-tie look while standing next to the 40th president, who was also wearing a tuxedo at some kind of event, possibly for awards.

Love it!
:)
Must have been a little tight around the waist
Thanks-really nice to see.
not seeign hte photo- is anyone else not seeing it?
His hands look bigger. His nose too.
Sorry, I’m just not used to seeing the President’s baby pictures. :)
Mt. Rushmore Phase II design.
Both should have faces carved on mountains! a New Rushmore. Maybe Reagan, Ike, Bush Sr. and Trump. If not faces then heroic statues carved in stone. In Florida? New Hampshire? Texas? Upper New York State? Looking towards the rising sun —the future. Or up towards space? If we want to include Democrats in the monument— The four or five should be—Truman, Ike, Reagan, JFK, Trump.
Great pictures!
Are you serious? Ike and Bush, Sr. are socialists who did their best to wipe conservatism off the face of the nation. I’d rather see Nixon and Hoover. (And no, I don’t want to see Nixon OR Hoover.)
LOVE
That picture is almost like seeing Washington and Lincoln together.
Except you know what the leftist animals would do to it.
Is that Ollie North in the background?
This magnificent photo was taken at a Hebrew University Scopus Award Dinner.
We certainly do need some updating/additions to Mount Rushmore to add these two awesome Presidents!!!
BTW, nice to see the legendary beloved Merv Griffin was on hand as well as the lovely Eva Gabor.
............mmmmmmmmm..........no............
Merv was a lifelong friend of the Reagans.
As for Trump, in 1988 Griffin purchased Resorts International and two of their hotels, in Atlantic City, NJ and Paradise Island in The Bahamas from Donald Trump and other investors. Part of the deal was that Trump would buy Resorts’ interest in the yet to be constructed Taj Mahal project for $273 million.Griffin subsequently sought bankruptcy court protection on Dec. 23, 1989 for Resorts International Inc., his troubled hotel and casino operator.
The background to this was on Nov. 12, when Resorts reached a tentative agreement with certain bondholders, several bondholders petitioned the United States Bankruptcy Court in Camden, New Jersey, to put the company into involuntary bankruptcy to protect legal claims they might have against Trump, the real estate investor Griffin outbid for Resorts the prior year. As a result, this literally wiped out or greatly reduced the investments of the bondholders, so that Mr. Griffin could sue Trump and yet still retain a significant portion for himself.
Besides Resorts International, the holding company for casinos in Atlantic City and the Bahamas, three company affiliates also filed for Chapter 11 protection: Griffin Resorts Inc., Resorts International Financing Inc. and Griffin Resorts Holding Inc.
Griffin purchased the Paradise Island Resort and Casino in the Bahamas for US$400 million from Trump, but Trump out-dealed him......Merv later sold it for just US$125 million.
A giant framed portrait version of that should be the first thing anyone sees from now on as they enter the White House.
