My mother was a die-hard FDR Democrat. When I turned eighteen the first president I voted for was Ronald Reagan. My mother was beside herself. When she asked me why I had voted for him, I told her I didn’t plan on staying poor.”
I would like to mention that Reagan was also a die-hard FDR Democrat.
This final number from the Gold Diggers (1933) speaks of “The Forgotten Man” during the Great Depression 80 years ago even more so today:

At one time, as was my late father. People change.
Reagan always said he didn’t leave the Democrat party, the party left him.
Good book, BTW.
