Raygun had plenty of his own problems, but he was far more adult and civic minded than Trump

Reagan grew up poor in a home with an alcoholic father, so despite his faults, he understood how to connect with the working class voter because that's where he came from.

But Trump was born rich with a silver (golden?) spoon in his mouth & it shows with his detachment from reality.

Donald Trump's father didn't love him. That much is clear.

No one, not one soul, has ever been as disgusting a display of humanity as Trump.

I was thinking in a federal elective office. Congress members and presidents included.

Mc Carthy could have been a contender. He simply didn't have the same power.

I blame the senate and congress for where we are. No ine but the courts are restraining him at all, until they get to SCOTUS, who allow him to do wtf he wants.

History will not judge this period well. It's God awful.

I think he did @Lily

But his mother didn't and it shows.
