“I’m talking about vocabulary. His is unbelievably limited. That will put him at a tremendous disadvantage in negotiating with foreign leaders”
Ronald Reagan - “Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!”
Succinct, simple, to-the-point and written so a 5th grader could understand.
Reagan spoke articulately and beautifully. “Tear down this wall” was memorable, but not a good example of how he spoke. I lived in CA throughout both of his terms as governor and elsewhere during both terms of his presidency. Don’t be so simplistic.
