Washington — President Trump lashed out at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation and Institute and Fox News on Sunday after the presidential foundation requested his campaign and the Republican National Committee stop using former President Ronald Reagan's likeness to fundraise.

"So the Washington Post is running the Reagan Foundation, and RINO Paul Ryan is on the Board of Fox, which has been terrible," Mr. Trump tweeted. "We will win anyway, even with the phony @FoxNews suppression polls (which have been seriously wrong for 5 years)!"

The head of the RF is the CEO of the NeverTrump Wash Post. That is what’s bizzare.

The left has even taken over the Reagan Foundation.

Paul Ryan is of the left.

Paul Ryan is a pointy-eared piece of garbage leprechaun

Berating Ronald Reagan, especially in front of people that were old enough to understand how he changed the world, is probably a dangerous thing.

To me this is berating the great one.

And he was great. Unless one likes alternate days to get gas on long lines and hostages being taken with failed military missions and recessions and practically ceding defeat to the Soviet Union and believing it impossible to put weapons in space... Way before most thought it was possible.

Many people get confused by the R jersey and don’t see how many progressives are in the GOP.

So born in 1945 yet no military service listed. Why doesn’t that surprise me?

I don’t know if being a conservative and a republican were ever one and the same. If
If they ever were, those days are long long long gone.

I do not consider myself a republican. I consider myself a conservative with no better choices.

We would have to sacrifice at least two or three election cycles to build a strong conservative party and not vote for the Republican.

Ironically the people that didn’t show up to vote for Romney did that. We had eight years horror which led to a real conservative president.

I don’t want to pick on him about the deficits and debt because he is alone over there.

But the buck does stop there and when he gets re-elected he won’t have to worry about getting re-elected again.

It will be time to rock and roll. We shall see

Has there EVER been a Foundation, no matter how noble the initial founders intent, that wasn’t soon taken over by leftists or pseudo-conservatives who use it for their own personal profit and to use it for their own foul agenda?

Of course these days most Foundations are STARTED with the full intent of defrauding the public, laundering money and spreading an agenda the opposite of what they proclaim.

Reagan is still a better overall president than Trump has been able to be, to date, but I so greatly look forward to another four years with President Trump to out do the Gipper.

We have been incredibly blessed with both men. Neither were of the royal blood the RNC-types wanted, though.

Reagan didn’t stand up to the establishment and allowed George Bush the elder to grab control of the GOP with his band of neocon globalists.

Saw Michael Reagan on Newsmax TV

Seems to have pivoted to an anti-Trumper.

Complaining to the host about this.

MR said Trump was making it look like Reagan supports him.

Stupid.

The picture just shows that Trump has tremendous respect for RR.

Then ended with a stupid joke that made Greg Kelly wince and shake his head.

It seems to me if you have your picture taken with someone, even a president, you can do what you want with the picture.

The problem is, if the rat 🐀 Communists take over, it might become illegal to be a conservative. 🤗

Then I will just add it to the other illegal things in my past in my misspent youth :-)

And I really hate being told what to do or how to think.

Not going to change now.

I got a bad feeling in the pit of my stomach if that if black militants and local militias keep meeting face to face this thing is going to blow up.

Everyone I know is quite tense

It is what it is
