SACRAMENTO — The Republican Party will hold a presidential candidate debate at the Ronald Reagan library Wednesday. It’s a bad fit. The GOP’s modern idol is exactly the opposite of Reagan in personality and character. For upbeat Reagan, America was a “shining city on the hill.” For whining Donald Trump, it’s a waste bin for venom and lies.
Reagan’s soaring rhetoric made people feel good about themselves. There was “always a bright dawn ahead” — “Morning in America.”
Yes, maybe that was a tad naive and corny, but it brought a collective smile — and won over many Democrats.

Who the hell is this Skeleton turd? Never heard of him. The boy seems to have some “issues”. Needs to see a shrink.
Venom - just another word that Democrat Socialists have managed to redefine.
Some time up in the future, those who still occupy the land mass once known as ‘The United States of America’ will rediscover much of the real history of of that tortured land, and come to the conclusion that at one time, that late great nation was on the cusp of a dawning Golden Age, smashed by the tactics of thugs and vandals, who did not know the history and glory that was once the Spirit of America.
> Reagan gave Americans hope. Trump offers venom and lies. <
I’ll bet you a dollar that back in 1980, the LA Times said “Eisenhower gave Americans hope. Reagan offers venom and lies.”
Leftists have their templates. Just change the names as necessary.
The Left is completely unaware and unaffected by irony.
BTW, your tagline did make me chuckle...
Now write that with JFK and Biden Democrats. Ask what you can do for your country and cutting taxes and all that. Hypocrites.
Quite frankly, the LATimes is not fit material to line a birdcage.
The rabid retromingent leftist bloviating his insanity and hatred.
Another steaming pantload of “we miss Reagan” and explaining that Reagan was just a sunny personality and that carried the day. And all of this is coming from people who hate everything he stood for.
Reagan did not have a deliberately provoked race war, a domestic communist insurgency, WEF clones everywhere, the climate cult, and 75% of DC more loyal to Red China than to the American people.
God bless Reagan. He was the man for his time. But I am glad he did not have to face the treason of today. For that, we need a fighter. Reagan would have fought, but today, Trump is the only fighting option.
Lies, division and a crummy economy.
I don’t think the LA Times felt this way back in the 80’s.
“...it’s a waste bin of venom and lies.”

Indeed it is. And people like the author of this rabid leftist propaganda are the ones spewing the venom and lies.
Lying Times?????
Venom? Look for “ venom” in his speech when he came down the escalator. All the venom came after the speech and was directed at him. That speech was called racist. He was called hate filled and racist. Look for any hate or racism in the speech. The “venom” here is the same thing as the “ violation of community standards” that the left throws around , it’s all down to WHO is speaking NOT what is being said.
In 1980, America was the world’s biggest creditor nation. Now we are the biggest debtor nation in all of human history.
Is this writer trying to pose as some big Reagan fan?
They are scared.
The LA Times makes the New York Times look balanced... nuff said...
Trump did give Americans hope that we could “Make America Great Again.”
In Reagan’s day, there was a lot of talk from the media and the left that Ron was just a snake oil salesman peddling useless and harmful supposed remedies.
But voters didn’t believe the media and trusted their own eyes.
Big difference between then and now.
