    Donald Trump was a Democrat when Reagan was alive. It’s an inconvenient truth that Republicans think doesn’t matter, but it’s already destroyed their party.

  2. Reagan thought landlords should be able to discriminate against Black renters, and he called UN delegates from African nations monkeys who had just learned to wear shoes. I think he’d be cool with Trump.

  3. As governor, Reagan signed into law abortion access in California before Roe v Wade was a thing and also signed into law a pretty restrictive gun ban. As president, he was pro-amnesty and largely pro-immigrant.

    Reagan would be a total pariah in today’s GOP. Though he would get some bonus points for being deeply homophobic and a racist.

  4. Asking a living piece of shit what a dead piece of shit would think about a third piece of shit. This is some riveting shit.

  5. She voted twice for Trump. Her last straw was Jan 6. Trump was a horrible president and horrible person before Jan 6 but she was good with that. I mean I’m glad she finally grew a back bone but there was plenty of reason to go against Trump before that point in time.

    That is laughable — I get he’s some kind of folk hero to conservatives, but get real. Reagan would bend the knee and suck the chode just as hard as any other MAGA asswipe. He literally put the whole farce in motion.

  7. She’s delusional. Reagan was one of Nixon’s most stalwart supporters throughout the height of Watergate. He was willing to gloss over anything Nixon did because he was a Republican, which is exactly the dynamic that has led to Trump’s domination of the party.

    Liz Cheney never understood her own party, probably because her father made it so that she never really had to give it much thought. Now she tries to straddle this line between the two parties, while also saying insane shit like Democrats support abortions all the way up to birth. What do you actually want, Liz?

    To be honest, I couldn’t give two fucks what Reagan would think. That POS is the reason we are where we are today.

    She’s wrong, he’s literally a direct continuation of Reagan’s policies (minus Trump loving Russia) that’s part of why Reagan’s so negatively regarded after historical reevaluation and by the people who knew better in the first place (my parents always hated Reagan, they consider him doing so well in the elections as bad as Trump winning his first term and I’m inclined to agree).

  10. Trump *is* Reagan with worse manners. Reagan would have fallen in line just like the entire rest of the party, except for a small handful of outliers like Liz Cheney.

  11. I’d love to see the look on Reagan’s face after being told that the GOP has become a puppet for Russia.

    Fuck off Liz. YOU voted for him and his agenda. I’m so glad you’ve turned around after Jan 6th, but try not to speak for others on what they would absolutely not do.

    MAGA is the logical end game of the Republican party and Reagan was every bit as nasty as Trump in his way, he just hid it under the decorum and genteelity “have you no shame, sir” about behavior, but underneath, just as festering and slimy in his beliefs about who deserves what, which is ALWAYS “me and mine, not you and yours, now get back to work for me”

  14. You mean the man (well the people “under” him) that created this shitty late stage economic shithole we live in today?

  15. How do you know Liz? Did you hold a seance?

    Fuck off Liz. Until you start talking policy on this situation of the hi-jacking of the Conservative party, just fuck off. Take FrankenDick with you. You lost the power in the party, too bad so sad.

  16. There’s no chance that anyone but a brain washed cult would support Trump (and also the Russians).

  17. The conservative economy policy of low taxes and zero regulations was never enough to win. So they decided to go after the racists and religious nuts and WOW they hit pay dirt.
