I read with interest and some amazement "The Ronald Reagan guide to the Joe Biden presidency" (Nov. 28). Jamelle Bouie of the New York Times maintains Biden's first year is comparable to Ronald Reagan's first year in 1981.The approval rating of both went down.
Bouie, a young man born in 1987, could have no memory at all of Reagan. I was in the U.S. Senate during all of his tenure and remember well Reagan's remarkable first days and the year that followed.
When Joe Biden's presidency began on Jan. 20, 2021, America's economy was actually doing fine considering that the pandemic — something with which no living person has had any experience — was approaching its first anniversary.

Biden not as good as Reagan. Wow.
Okay, now I’ve got that one straight.
I’m up to speed.
Ready to be a modern, current, hip political analyst like that guy.
Feel strangely calm now.

Anyone with at least one neuron still firing could not POSSIBLY confuse the policies of the Biden administration with a person who cares about the American people the way Reagan did.

The vegetable isn't even Obama or Clinton.
And that is a very low number.

Carter must be tickled to see two Presidents from his own party work so hard at being the worst in his lifetime.

No Reagan presidency? Sheesh. Brandon is aspiring to be as well thought of as James Buchanan.

If the MSM and the Deep State were the same back in 1980 as they are is now Reagan would have never survived. The MSM and Deep State are weaponized now. Back then not as much.
