Sorry, but I’m missing your point there.
Your antecedent post stated:
“Thanks to trump, I’ll never vote for a politician again for president. Coming up through the political ranks instantly disqualifies them for me now.”
Since Ronald Reagan had previously been twice elected governor of California, i.e., a “politician”, you wouldn’t have voted for Reagan for president due to his prior political office by applying your “nevet vote for a politician” dictum.
So I’m thankful you and others with like minds either didn’t vote during those 2 elections or your views at that time allowed you to apply analysis to a situation.
