A quote in which Reagan complained, "I didn't leave the Democratic Party. The party left me.''
LOL, how thick does someone have to be to compare Reagan, or anyone, being a democrat in the 1930s and 1940s and having Truman in 1948 as his last democrat presidential vote, before campaigning for Eisenhower in 1952, and 1956, and Nixon in 1960, and already earning a reputation as a conservative speaker and thinker in the 1950s, giving a famous conservative speech at Goldwater’s 1964 convention, two terms as republican governor, and giving us the Reagan years, to Donald trump leaving the GOP, to join the democrats in 2001, and being a democrat under Obama, and naming Bill Clinton as his favorite modern president?
Trump wasn’t a democrat in the old days, and WWII, he left the GOP, and became a modern Al Gore, Hillary, Bill, Obama, John Kerry, Nancy Pelosi, Ted Kennedy democrat, leaving at age 63, in 2009.
[ Reagan was also once a democrat. He switched to Republican in 1962 .

One of the reasons the left hated Reagan so much was they felt betrayed by him leaving the demorat party
