From the Archives: Ronald Reagan speaks about future of the Republican party after Watergate

[@nicholasnapier2684]

You know there’s a big huge difference between then and now and you can’t compare the two.

[@typheran1]

As compared to kennedy or Carter vs Kamala or Hillary? I’d say the republicans are much much closer.

[@rui569]

The Republican party was hijacked.

@@typheran1 Trump is like Pat Buchanan, but not as Christian. He's like Ron Paul, but not as fiscally conservative. It's difficult to find a politician that resembles Trump. Even Reagan, who was an actor, made an effort to be well-read and came off as an ideologue.

[@nicholasnapier2684]

He saw the future of our country and he’s talking about right now😂

Remember when politicians didn't need to depend on a teleprompter?

[@brianboneslee]

I was young back then but I remember, also even back in the day republicans didn’t like unions! Amazing

[@Dearthvader2]

In a culture without crony capitalist and government collusion there is NO NEED for unions to negotiate pay. Just because you have never truly experienced freedom but through a cia psyop that is not freedom at all does not mean it is not possible.

[@FactsNReason]

A time and era when politics was civil, reasonable, and full of decorum - irrespective of what side you’re on

[@edoardopesce9226]

What a man! Impossible not to fall under his charisma. He really was blessed.

[@bradyfry8031]

God we were much more civil and respectful as a nation back then. Todays politicians have lost their mind's.

[@dorianphilotheates3769]

One thing about Ronnie: he sure was a snappy dresser.

[@mattmurphy24]

Reagan ended up ballooning deficits with respect to Ford. He spent a lot of time talking about debt while he ran it up! Note how Reagan confronted with a different opinion, pauses thinks for a second and talks about something else. In other cases, he is knowledgeable enough to clarify his position. Now contrast that with Trump. He calls the person asking the question nasty, then spews out some random position he thinks works in his favor. Trump is no Reagan. Its funny this prompted me to look at 1980 results again. Many of the key battle ground states today would have gone for Carter if not for Anderson. California would have gone for Reagan barely absent Anderson. The divide in the US is nothing new.

[@Dearthvader2]

They lied on this opinion program today about what he said about War monger liz cheney. Why would President Donald John Trump talk to known manipulators and liars like margaret Brennan and not be "nasty". You have a working iq of about 25 with this irrelevant bullsht.

So, in citing the previous generation or two as a period of decline, Reagan was including Presidents Nixon and Eisenhower as part of the problem. Correct?

Why invited to Face the Nation but Face the world Ronald Reagan as President of the United States has made the economy working like no other and the Cold War to the ashes of history. Now we talk about US leading the economy around the world and "peace through strength" Barry Goldwater. Can you Americans please make sense and vote for Donald J Trump and Malania Trump to the White House as 47th President of the United States today. GHU JW

Exactly. Regardless of his policies, Reagan was a decent and civilized man with a positive charisma that would suit the US very well also today. I am sad that the Republican Party of today has moved so far away from the Republican Party of the Reagan years.

Vice President Harris spun circles around Fox, and did so on their turf. Reagan famously ratted out his fellow actors as President of the Screen Actors Guild as “Communists” to Senator Eugene McCarthy. The President of Union workers secretly informed on his fellow trade union workers as its President. Let that sink in. He then organized closure of the State mental institutions in California, turning those people out into the streets, where they remain today. That’s your Christian Republican, just as he spun stories about “Welfare Queens” driving new Cadillacs and being Black. The bigot in him would not remain contained.
