The Berlin Wall is long gone. Oh...I see! You are against a wall on our southern border. In other words, you want the border to be left wide open and unprotected. Why would anyone want that?

Really doubt it. Reagan might have had politics that many disagreed with, but he had integrity. Trump has NONE OF THAT.

Trump looked like a complete wimp on the international stage. No one will look back at trump fondly, only his cultists. Hell even Bush looks more honorable compared.

If trump can pull off something amazing. Something world changing, or at-least show an ounce of integrity that come from within, then perhaps he might.

For now Trump is a coward. If Obama is soft, then Trump folds on contact.

Excuse me???????

The so called conservative who grew government by leaps and bounds and made the Carter Administration look like it was tight with his money?

"The budget for the Department of Education, which candidate Reagan promised to abolish along with the Department of Energy, more than doubled to $22.7 billion, Social Security spending has risen from $179 billion in 1981 to $269 billion in 1986.
The price of farm programs went from $21.4 billion in 1981 to $51.4 billion in 1987, a 140% increase. And this doesn't count the recently signed $4 billion "drought-relief" measure. Medicare spending in 1981 was $43.5 billion; in 1987 it hit $80 billion. Federal entitlements cost $197.1 billion in 1981—and $477 billion in 1987."

"Foreign aid has also risen, from $10 billion to $22 billion. Every year, Reagan asked for more foreign-aid money than the Congress was willing to spend. He also pushed through Congress an $8.4 billion increase in the U.S. "contribution" to the International Monetary Fund."

We have more tech. More alternatives to a giant wall.

I love both these guys as President but Trump has bigger cojones. The reason I say that is that he fights the liberal media and is winning. Reagan ignored the Fake News media but I prefer Trumps confrontational approach. The Fakestream media was destroying the country and had to be engaged.

No he’s giving them fuel. The summit was a nice care package for the media. And the added bonus of his cringy as hell “clarification”.

Media doesn’t need to work that hard for material on Trump. He’s a walking cringe factory..

Trump redpilled a lot of people and opened their eyes to the lies of the fake news media .

Everyday more and more are walking away from the Democrat party / liberals .

They woke

Reagan was constantly under attack by the left. Mocked and ridiculed by comedians. Always portrayed as a doddering senile old man. But Reagan never lost his cool. The abuse rolled off him like water off a duck's back. That's one reason why even people who didn't like his politics liked him personally. But Trump is just not likeable at all. Petulant, petty, mean-spirited, dishonest, disloyal, egotistical, narcissistic, bullying, crass, obnoxious, degenerate, etc. Does anyone actually like this guy personally?

I don't remember Reagan being under attack since he won by a landslide...49 out of 50 states.
