Fun fact: 'Code of the Secret Service' was the film that made Jerry Parr want to become a secret service agent. He was the secret service agent who saved Reagan's life.

I was too young to remember Reagan as a politician, but the way he has been usurped by right-wing ideologues is odd. Reagan was Hollywood. He was simply by long exposure privately more tolerant of a wide range of lifestyles than some of his most ardent right-wing supporters want to admit. Also, the fact that people were leaving California back then makes me question the hysteria and attempt to score political points over people leaving California now. This is an old phenomenon.

Linus Pauling Reagan’s amnesty surely wasn’t great but his across the board tax rate reductions and the widespread prosperity they contributed to are probably the reasons this person considers him to be the best president in his/her lifetime. Trump used his personal money to pay Stormy Daniels, he didn’t use campaign funds. There is absolutely no evidence that president Trump ever tied foreign aid to an investigation into Biden. That’s an unproven allegation. Withholding aid is something that happens on a routine basis in American foreign policy, and the fact that he withheld aid isn’t relevant unless you can find evidence tying that to Biden investigations.

@donaldthesavage1288 4 жыл бұрын

Fer Abra President Reagan signed into law an across the board tax cut. The tax cuts were larger for the wealthy only because the wealthy paid more in taxes. However, he never advocated for “trickle down economics” or anything like the policies that liberals attribute to him. Median family income went up by thousands of dollars during Reagan’s time in office, every income quintile saw income growth, 17.9 million jobs were created, inflation fell from 13.5% in 1980 to 4.1% in 1988, the stock market tripled, and people that were in the bottom 20% when Reagan entered office were more likely to have risen to the top 20% than to have remained in the bottom 20%.
