Reagan was a Democrat too once. And the head of, oh my, a union.
Another false smear on Reagan. By the time he was president, he had 25 years of conservative activism, and knew conservative theory inside an out. He didn't have a couple of aides handing him talking points he knew nothing about. And Democrats when he was one, were nothing like they are today.
Ronald Reagan never paid off Al Sharpton or paled around with street thugs.
He would have found that repulsive to say the least.
