Reagan bitterly complained that O’Neill reneged on the tax deal. Reagan agreed to raise one dollar of taxes for $3 in spending cuts. Spending cuts never happened.
Nothing more the The Hill trying to make republicans do what democrats want, there is no compromising with evil.
Concha’s on Hannity a lot, isn’t he? Hannity advertises himself as a “Reagan Republican”, so how is he going to feel about Concha calling his titular POTUS a “RINO”?
On a side note-
“Did you get all of that? 55 percent of journalists say equal coverage should not exist”
The preceding paragraph and this one to show a majority opinion of one kind was the same tool used by Scott Adams-
A very standard way to look at surveys.
He noted that in a survey, a majority had an opinion- Then he drew a simple conclusion, and plan of action.
He also noted that that plan of action would be in direct CONTRAST to how he had lved his life for the last 50 years.
And in his counter-punch satirical way, showed the first part, The Survey Respondents, were THE PROBLEM, not his response.
But most folks, even here, just missed all that.
And that resulted in his Cartoon being pulled from nearly all newpapers published.
Reagan was overrated. The original “fool me 19 times, shame on me” President.
I am being generous here in that I assume this is an honest mistake and not a purposeful deception on Concha's part, but I can't understand how someone of his caliber can claim the ideological rift between today's kleptocratic, racist, globalist, anti-Western civilization, anti-capitalist, anti-Federalism Democrat oligarchs and our Nation's founding principles is not an irreconcilable political red line.
Oh for Pete’s sake, Joe.
The ‘rats reneged on every deal they made with Reagan.
The difference is actual RINOs go into negotiations expecting to be screwed.
Totally fake, phony and false!
Yes, let’s listen to some blowhard who talks and looks like Ron Burgundy.
Ronald Reagan created a conservative movement when America was all liberal, the entire atmosphere and media were democrat/moderate, democrats had controlled Congress for decades, there was no Rush Limbaugh or FOX News, no 1994 Newt Gingrich, no internet voices and blogs, Reagan was alone except for tiny bits and pieces of conservatism such as William F. Buckley’s niche icebergs (and powerful little icebergs they were).
Reagan changed the world and moved the nation, winning New York, Massachusetts, Maine, Oregon, California, Hawaii, New Jersey, and every other state except the opponent’s state of Minnesota where Reagan refused to campaign out of courtesy and lost by 3,761 votes and winning 67 of that state’s 87 counties.
Reagan had to thread a lot of needles, and he still managed to move mountains.
Concha was probably in diapers during RR’s reign.
Back then, most Democrats were relatively sane liberals, and some were even moderate-to-conservative, like Senator Zell Miller of Georgia. Unfortunately, today, most Democrat politicians are Commies.
Do we really want to compromise with that?
TROLL
Teddy Roosevelt was the original RINO.
The reason why Reagan could be “bipartisan” is that there was a a huge throng of southern democrats who agreed with him on a lot of issues and the South was continuing its slow and steady transformation to the Republican Party.
This diatribe is pure BS!
BS.
You only need consult my book, “Reagan: THE American President.”
We’re all swells.
It really gets old seeing the constant re-invention of Reagan.
They never have to do this with the Bushes, with Ford, or any of the others. That in/of itself speaks volumes.
