  1. Reagan would be crucified upside-down in today’s MAGA party. It’s disingenuous to think of them as Republicans. There are no more Republicans. Just thralls to Dear Leader.

  2. They’re also selling out America and their allies.

  3. This is no longer the party of Reagan.

    This is the party of Gingrich, the ratfucker.

    edit: Reagan had massive issues, but his issues were entirely about social structure (edit: and economic policy) within the country (eg. drug wars, AIDs, unfunding college education, trickle-down economics). International posture was decidedly *not* an issue insofar as it related to Europe, trade, and soft power (we can argue about Iran, etc).

  4. There really Trump republicans and then there are republicans. It will be known in short order how the wider republican membership is extremely upset with how Trump has started this round of POTUS. It’s going to explode in Trumps face.

  5. Reagan, JFK, Eisenhower, Truman, and Nixon would utterly hate it

  6. And soon they will be bailing out Russia. Just wait, you’ll see, our tax dollars will go to bailing out the Russian economy and replenishing their military.

  7. Not only Ukraine, selling out whole Europe. But this might backfire.

  8. I wouldn’t expect anything else from traitorous shit bags.

  9. Shit article, Reagan era republicans including Reagan appointed judges have been anti Trump. The modern Republican party is not the same as a Reagan era Republican. Modern Maga Republican do not have the same views as your traditional Republican from the 80s and 90s

  10. Pretty soon, Trump will tell the ‘dictator’ Zelensky to tear down the wall between Ukrainians and Russians and accept peace in Europe.

  11. Reagan is rolling so fast and hard in his grave that they should be able to power the world for a few years.

  12. I wish republicans could think for themselves 😫

  13. The truth is that the Republican Party no longer exists.

    Republican Party was absorbed or robbed by religious fanatics, oligarchs who use the name of the working people to increase their gigantic fortunes, control a big part of the media to spread their narrative of propaganda.

    The United States with Trump and Elon Musk are leading the country to be a world pariah.

    A country traitor of its allies.

    With Trump there will only be two winners who will be China and Russia.

  14. Trump is shitting on the American soldiers who died for freedom in the First and Second World Wars!

  15. That Trump is a maniac was known, the blind obedience and loss of spine of Marco Rubio, however, is a surprise to anyone who was watched him over the past decade.

  16. Maybe all these people on here that love war can join Ukraine military….Ukraine is not getting land back….thats reality…US gave 300 billion dollars to Ukraine ( they lost 100 billion)..people are being slaughtered…when will this war be a good time to be over?

  17. This is what you get when you vote because you identify with a party based on emotion instead of reading and fully understanding what they promote and looking at how a party profiles itself and its supporters.
    This coming from an EU perspective; I have personally voted for 5 different parties over the years due shift in interests an shifts in policies by parties. It is completely illogical from our pov to vote based on how your parents or neighbors vote. Do your damn research next time, if there’ll ever be one in the USA.

  18. I vehemently disagree with a lot of Reagan’s policies both domestically and foreign. But one thing I would never question is Reagan’s loyalty to this country. I miss the days when we could hold the same long term interests, but disagree philosophically about how to achieve it. But at the end of the day, it was in the country’s best interests.

    This is not Reagan’s party. What we see today definitely is somewhat of a byproduct of that administration’s trickle down economics, tax policy, and foreign policy, but he would still be sick at what it’s become.

  19. It’s all a trick to get free green energy.

    Get Reagan to rotate in his grave, then hook up a generator.

  20. They are not the party of Reagan. They may hold him up as some kind of paragon but compared to the new breed of republican Reagan was actually a good an (despite the fact that he was actually terrible and fucked America for a few shekels from the likes of Rupert Murdoch).

    The Republican party is the party of unashamed greed, zero empathy, white exceptionalism, and religious hypocrisy.
