No one does. Question is, would Reagan change or would he remain the same? If he remained the same he would be run over like a freight train, because it's not the same.
The definition of insanity is to continue using old tactics, when new tactics are in use.

No he would not. He would understand the marxist threat to it though.

Reagan wouldn’t recognize the USA in 2023. That's really the meat of the matter. USA 2023 is vastly different (and worse off in many ways) than USA 1983. The opposition Dems of 1983 were still lefty tools, but had some level of constraint and desire to support Ameria that frankly doesn't exist in the left today. The social fabric and societal standards of 1983 made many things unthinkable then which are sadly accepted openly now. The GOP of 1983 was rather different than the GOP of 2023 because the nation is so much different now.

Reagan would clearly recognize that there is no substantive difference between the platform of today's Democrat Party and the American Communist Party ... none! Hence, it's the GOP vs the Democrat/Communist Party ... a distinctly different opponent than the ones Reagan faced ... and defeated!

Reagan wouldn’t recognize the USA in 2023.True. It's not Reagan's America anymore. The country is different, and the issues are different.
Reagan worked with the establishment but like Trump, he wasn’t one of them.
The establishment was willing to work with Reagan. Once he was elected, they didn't see him as a threat.
