First, Republicans tried calling Donald Trump too conservative. When that didn’t work, they started calling him too liberal.
The fact that Trump occasionally donated to Democrats (usually Democrats who could help him get real estate built in New York, mind you) has caused many of his rivals to accuse Trump of being a lefty, ridiculous as that may sound.
However, one recently-unearthed picture tells the truth about The Donald:
Yes, that’s Trump, posing with the greatest Republican president since Abraham Lincoln, Ronald Reagan. And Reagan was certainly no lefty or RINO.
If that’s not enough, here’s video of Trump praising Reagan during an interview on Fox News:

Need some more? President Reagan’s own son, Michael Reagan, says that Trump reminds him of his dad in many ways.
“I want to see, and America wants to see, that campaign that says, ‘You know something, this is where I want to take America. I am passionate about it. These are my issues. This is what I want to do,'” Michael Reagan said in an interview on Newsmax TV.
“That’s why America right now has surrounded Trump, in this case, because he’s off the cuff and he speaks from his own passion.”
Even Sarah Palin has come out and talked about the similarities between Trump and Reagan in a column for Breitbart.
“Shouts of, ‘But he donated to Democrats!’ won’t sway Trump enthusiasts,” Palin wrote. “The man built a skyscraper in New York City – of course, he had donated to Democrats. If he was building it in Salt Lake City, I’m sure he would have donated to Republicans.
“‘But he changed his mind on positions!’ Reagan had been an FDR Democrat,” she continued. “Should we hold that against him or be grateful he saw the light?”
It didn’t work when Trump’s GOP primary opponents called him too conservative. And, from the way things sound, it won’t work when they call him too liberal, either.
Maybe it’s time for the Republicans to start listening to Trump instead of blindly bashing him. Perhaps, for once, they’ll understand what conservatives actually want from our leaders.

That depends. Did the aftermath look anything like this:
I’m not really in for anybody, and certainly not against Trump. But I mean, a picture? Series-ly?
Um, this proves Trump is no Reagan...

Does that mean somethin?
Probably not the most pc thing to say, but Trump and Palin make a formidable ‘power couple’. A friggen billionaire and conservative babe. Dang.
You are pretty sick to make a joke of assasignation. Trump is turning people into liberal sickos
Long live Elvis!!
Long live Elvis!!
From Drudge, Democrats add Donald Trump to list of serious Republican candidates
More pictures.. more truths?
As the article says: he built a skyscraper in New York. And that meaans donating to Dems?
So if Trump gave campaign $ to Democrat Ed Rendell in Pennsylvania then he had to do so to get that skyscraper built in New York? /s.
FWIW, so did Reagan.
So, Reagan can have a change of heart, but not The Donald?
Churchill was well aware of the Iron Curtain threat even at that time.
Trump is not conservative. AN old pic doesn’t change anything.,
The picture you posted is not showing for me, so I don't know what you are trying to imply, but I do know that Elvis was a black belt in Kenpo.
I love those pictures....proves a point....
I am getting such a good laugh today at how many people are saying:
