When did Reagan cut spending?

Good call out. Reagan in NO way reduced spending. While he claimed he was for smaller gov.. He made it larger than ever. He tripled the deficit and that is in no way reducing spending. Dixie...you have been listening to those that want to spin ronnie as something good, not the reality he was.

Have you ever looked at the military budget?
Bring the troops home to defend our borders like the Constitution says. Stop risking the lives of Americans abroad and at home by being the policemen of the world.

His ally will be the dems? Do you even follow politics?

The focus of the election should be on changing Congress. That's where the power lies, not with the Presidency.

The President is more powerful than Congress. He has executive orders and he spends the money. Congress just appropriates the money.
