I've got no love at all for Reagan. He was an actor through and through and his policies were ruinous to the middle class, but one thing you have to give him credit for as a president was that he did not put up with any shit.

If he was standing next to Putin and Trump back in Helsinki, he would probably have slapped Trump.

This is how an American president it supposed to carry himself YessirAtsaFact Dec 2018 #1
