The public wanted another Reagan and instead got no one remotely close-the establishment stooge forced on him Bush moved left and every POTUS up to incl Obama moved further left.
Dems lost 1100 elected office fr 2010-2016-a record by 600.
Lerner, Russia, scamdemic, Ukraine-the losing would’ve continued absent 90% industry/institution/billionaires colluding, conspiring to rig elections.
The public say that until giving up their favorite socialist goodie becomes an issue. They want “socialism lite” to work. It doesn’t, it just crashes slower then socialism major. Reagan didn’t do much to roll it back. He nibbled at the edges a little more then most. Congress wouldn’t have let him even if he tried harder.
