Reagan was a racist

Because welfare queen stereotypes? War on crack cocaine? His being anti-affirmative action?

It seems like the goal posts on what defines racism have moved a lot over the decades. At one point in time you had to be personally racist to be considered racist. Then it was if you wanted to cut welfare or get tough on crime you were racist. Nowadays if you’re against reparations you’re a racist.

The same calling Trump a racist called Reagan a racist

The playbook hasn't changed in 40 years

He started his campaign in Philadelphia Mississippi. Dog whistle.

He hated Blacks. Spread aids to the gays because he was homophobic. Killed poor people with tax cuts for the wealthy.

Traded arms for drugs with Iran. Ran drugs through Arkansas with Bill.

He was a horrible person and people that voted for him were worse

I still owe you a response in another thread but need a keyboard for that.

I for one have never called Trump a racist. I think he’s said some bigoted, off color remarks but then again who hasn’t among us. But the standard of speech for a candidate for high office needs to be better (more on this later) and you didn’t hear Reagan producing the soundbites that Trump does.

Now where you and I will agree is the hypocrisy of the left on playing the race card. Are a lot of Trump voters bigoted, racist redneck? Yes, absolutely. Was Obama’s preacher a racist? You’re god damned America right he was. Were a lot of minorities that voted for Obama racist. Yes, definitely.

To be continued...

Back in the olden days, conservatives knew bashing government was political theatre; conservatives didn't actually behave as if government was the enemy. Ronald Reagan's policies were both pro-government and pro-big government. This was true for him as a Governor and President. The nuts who took over the conservative brand during the past 20 years actually do seem to believe government is the enemy. Of course government will not shrink anytime soon for reasons having to do with math and shit. The only question that really matters is whether we're going to borrow to pay for it or fund it in real time.
