People forget that the vitriol against Reagan was almost as bad as Trump, but didn’t usually boil over into calls by democrats to use violence against him and his supporters.

Were there Reagan supporters or cabinet members who were harassed when they eat at restaurants?

That's because, prior to Trump, we've had 28 years of treasonous, globalist, open borders presidents who have cultivated an absolute attitude of violence and anarchy.

We've been enabling liberal insanity for decades.

Really? I understand that a lot of liberals hated Reagan, but his policies had some support from Democrats in Congress and the media didn't have the kind of unified and intense hatred of Reagan that they have for Trump.

There was more of a continuum or spectrum in those days. Network news and major newspapers couldn't express the degree of animosity that Mother Jones or The Nation could. Now they can.
