Overstated.
Remember, even after the soi-disant Republican Richard Nixon, who instituted wage-and-price controls for god's sake, not to mention Watergate and Gerry 'wipe my drool' Ford's pardon, the Republican Party re-captured the Presidency with Ronaldus Magnus. Of course, 4 years of Jimmy 'I never saw a oil crisis I didn't like' Carter had something to do with it.
I'm not sayin' Zero will govern down to the standards of Carter, but ya gotta admit the possibility is there!
The question is, can we survive that long?
Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?
**the Republican Party re-captured the Presidency with Ronaldus Magnus. **
After the debacle of the Carter Regime, a trained CHIMPANZEE could have beaten CARTER.
Therefore, the presidency of Ronald REAGAN was a DIVINE BLESSING, and a DIVINE INTERVENTION sent by GOD To straighten us out. I guess the USA did NOT want to listen.
