Ronald Reagan (first divorced president) and Hollywood actor was accused of rape.

In Kitty Kelley's 1991 book Nancy Reagan: The Unauthorized Biography, actress Selene Walters claims that Ronald Reagan forced her to have sex with him in the early '50s. According to the book, Reagan, then president of the Screen Actors Guild, met Walters in a Hollywood nightclub. He asked for her address, and she gave it to him. Later at 3 a.m., he arrived unexpectedly at Walters' door and forced himself on her, Kelley alleges.
What's more, People magazine got Walters to repeat the story almost verbatim. Walters denied one key element of Kelley's version to People--that Reagan forced his way into her apartment--but reaffirmed the rest. It sounds remarkably like Juanita Broaddrick's story:
"I opened the door," Walters told the magazine. "Then it was the battle of the couch. I was fighting him. I didn't want him to make love to me. He's a very big man, and he just had his way. Date rape? No, God, no, that's [Kelley's] phrase. I didn't have a chance to have a date with him."
And that makes it okay??
Look, I get you want to compare Trump to Reagan reincarnated, but he just is not.
Ronald Reagan was a lot of things, liberal he was not. He was an old fashioned Democrat who stated his party left him, back in the 60s.
Trump on the other hand, had no problem with any of their stuff until he decided he was going to make another go at running for office, this time on the GOP ticket.
That is it.
Even this past weekend he was pushing GROWING the government with universal healthcare...
Reagan would NEVER have done that. Ever.
“One of the traditional methods of imposing statism or socialism on a people has been by way of medicine. It is very easy to describe a medical program as a humanitarian project... Under the Truman administration, it was proposed that we have a compulsory health insurance program for all people in the United States, and of course, the American people unhesitatingly rejected this... In the last decade, 127 million of our citizens, in just ten years, have come under the protection of some privately-owned medical or hospital insurance. The advocates of [socialized healthcare], when you try to oppose it, challenge you on an emotional basis... What can we do about this? Well you and I can do a great deal. We can write to our Congressmen, to our Senators. We can say right now that we want no further encroachment on these individual liberties and freedoms. And at the moment, the key issue is we do not want socialized medicine... If you don’t, this program I promise you will pass just as surely as the sun will come up tomorrow. And behind it will come other federal programs that will invade every area of freedom as well have known it in this country, until one day, as Norman Thomas said, we will awake to find that we have socialism. If you don’t do this and if I don’t do it, one of these days you and I are going to spend our sunset years telling our children, and our children’s children, what it once was like in America when men were free.”
- Ronald Reagan
Trump of course, instead would rather call those of us with THAT viewpoint heartless...
I might point out this women accused Reagan of rape in a Slate article...no bias there at all !!!
Was it ever confirmed he raped her ? Don't think so...
OTHO, Trump seems proud enough of his sexual conquests to put them in his books...
So tearing down Reagan is supposed to make Trump more like Reagan, weird and bizarre logic...
So what is your point? Never let the door close on a room that contains *you* and a woman named "Selene"?
