Anyone - anyone - who prefers Donald Trump to Ronald Reagan can not be taken seriously.

At least they can read.

They were asked to pick their dream president from anyone ALIVE.

I believe that eliminates Reagan. Your comment does not comport with the question asked....

This is not same country as it was in Reagan’s time. Any comparison is Apples to Oranges.

The “alive” criteria is the key. Donald Trump easily wins.

I am afraid you’re living in the past.

Ronald Reagan was a president who managed taxing and spending policy in a world before QE. Money had not yet been exposed as a substance created from nothingness by the Fed.

It has been, now. The new monetary policy proposals you hear about could not have existed in the 1980s. Bernanke had not created large scale Quantitative Ease.

Money has been exposed as something around which no moral compass can point. It comes from nothingness. How can it have any moral relevancy.

Oh, we have to use it. The system depends on it. But it doesn’t have to mean anything and it does not.

This reality would rob Reagan of any moral direction in policy. It’s why Drain the Swamp overwhelms all such policy traditions. They just can’t mean anything anymore.

I've seens plenty of FReepers say that Trump is the best president in their lifetime. Poor millenials. Born after the Reagan years.
