Fortunately, Reagan was still President when Gorbachev became Soviet Premier and he proved he could also be a peacemaker. We can only hope something will click in Trump that maybe people will like him betteri f he did the same, but somehow I doubt it.

The public is a bunch of propaganda chowing jackasses anyway, wouldn't want to count on them for anything.

I meant fortunately for Reagan's legacy.

Reagan armed terrorists we'd later fight

but even funnier was when he sent weapons to south american communist countries to "freedom fighters" who were just drug cartels

And don't forget the whole Iran Contra fiasco. I lived that one too.

This is spot on. Also, the above guy looks like less douchy Colin Farrell.
