When the insurrectionists invaded the office of House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) on Jan. 6 as he was hustled out into a “secure location,” they could not help but notice a large visage of Ronald Reagan displayed prominently in McCarthy’s inner sanctum. Like many Republicans, McCarthy deeply admires Reagan who cast a spell on the Republican party that lingers to this day. Decades after Reagan won the presidency in 1980 and died in 2004, Republicans often asked themselves the question, “What would Reagan do?

Reagan thought his worst mistake was amnesty.

Bush League Republicans want to repeat it and finish off the country.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Governorship_of_Ronald_Reai think his love of abortion as governor of California was actually worse. Immigration love was a close second as president. He said both were mistakes. Lol. How nice.

Really? You get your obvious limited knowledge from Wikipedia?

You could use a lesson on how to spell Reagan and copy and paste too. Maybe you could try Wikipedia.

Even if the bile you posted was true, what does a Governor's "love" of abortion have to do with anything?

Did he say his mistake was immigration? Or an amnesty deal he made with, then got screwed by the Democrats?

If you're going to post what someone says, put it in quotes...Otherwise it's just lies

LOL yourself.

He admires Reagan but follows the orders of Paul Ryan.

If the Republicans win back the House, it will be a return to Ryan/Boehner with McCarthy as Speaker.

Jim Jordan or keep Pelosi.
