My fellow Americans, I'm pleased to tell you today that I've signed legislation that will outlaw Russia forever. We begin bombing in five minutes.

Reagan himself said it was just like acting - remember your lines and don't bump into the furniture

As an early, "affable," "strong man," "white patriarchal" kleptocrat himself, Reagan would surely embrace "New Russia" and its "strong man" kleptocrat, though maybe not as slavishly as TheRump since there probably wouldn't be much kompromat on the old geezer.

Are you a fan of the original moron in chief?

Don't bother answering. This has to be the stupidest thread I have seen here in the 15+ years I have been a member.

Ronald Reagan would not have stood for any of this lunacy.

And, perhaps it could even be true.

But probably not. The Republicans have been craven for a very, very long time.

And Trump isn't the problem. It's the whole damn party.

Without his army of supporters, enablers, and sycophants, Trump would just be an obnoxious, but harmless, old man with a ridiculous combover.

'mommy' would tell ronnie what to get in front of the cameras and say.

Kindly ole' grandpa, my ass, he took away many of the hard working American's earned deductions when he was president.

He was just one of the fore-fathers of screwing over the American middle class worker.

His voter's fell for his tv persona just like the rubes fell for corporate trump.

He was an ASS.
