One of the most revered (by the right) presidents couldn't stand the snake/oil salesman - Donald Trump.

    Dead Ronnie isn't registered to vote in the State of Washington. Doesn't matter.

    Shows nothing of the sort. Only shows
    1) you read nut job sites like occupy democrats
    2) Donald tried to generate publicity by getting the presidents attention. No issue with that, and something he continued after Reagan. You aren't dumb enough to think Trump was the only one inviting him to things?
    3) lastly, and most importantly shows the difference between Reagan and say...Hillary. Reagan politely said no because it was a commercial venture...Donald donated some money and Hillary showed up at his wedding. What again does that say about Hillary?

    I see nothing in Reagan's words that he thought Trump had a big ego.

    That's because there's no there there.

    The there that's there is that Michael Reagan doesn't like Trump, nor do a lot of other established Republicans. A more careful analysis would conclude that it would be consistent for Ronald Reagan to openly support Trump after he became the party's nominee, not that that matters one iota today.

    The left wing nut sucker who wrote the article is making the same mistake their ilk continues to make. They don't really understand what matters to voters in the middle who will ultimately determine the outcome of the election. Picking on Trump's ego misses the mark. He does have a big ego. Hillary and Obama both have colossal egos. So does Bill Clinton. So did Richard Nixon. So did LBJ .... most presidents and people running for president have huge egos. An article like this reinforces the left's hatred, but it's not going to sway people in the middle who have much bigger and much more salient issues on their minds.
