Ronald Reagan’s famously sunny personal and political optimism was grounded by seeing the world as it was in its complex, often dark reality.

His buoyancy was boosted by a bedrock belief that foundational American values of faith, freedom and individual dignity had the power to make the troubled world a better place.

The rare combination of sunniness in the face of harsh reality and his faith in American exceptionalism gave the Great Communicator a gift to predict future events with remarkable accuracy.

If Reagan could see the future he wouldn’t have made the border deal with Tip O’Neal.

that would surprise me, since the Great RR and that bastage Bush had zero in common.

Reagan was a old school politician. He could be friendly with all sort of people that he did not necessarily agree with politically.

Politics back then was not the rabid hate fest the Clintons and the Alt Left have turned it into since 1992

In a perfect world, providing healthcare for the public would be a good thing, however, it’s not a perfect world, it’s an evil corrupt world where people in power end up corrupt and controlling people and would use healthcare to permanently enslave people.

Just look at Covid and how that healthcare situation was handled, who in their right mind would turn over 100% of their healthcare to the same people who ran our Covid response.
