Which is exactly what the left has tried to do with Reagan's success in defeating Communism.
That is an excellent example but they do it so often we now consider it background noise. Every success by a Republican administration is yawned at and ignored, often not even reported, while every perceived pimple is ballyhooed as terminal cancer.
Not many years ago their tactics were considered novelties and were discussed, if at all, in conservative think tanks and intellectual publications. They were rarely described to the masses. Now their tactics have become a constant drumbeat of everyday life. Those pointing them out, us, are labeled right wing kooks. That is why they are trying to censor the internet and silence talk radio.
Their present strategy is to paint Republicans as a "culture of corruption" and enforce the idea with numerous accusations and investigations. Their ace in the hole will be election fraud while screaming that the Republicans are trying to steal another election.
Perfect analogy.
