Reagan has been absolutely catastrophic for the United States. The amount of debt that we have would never have happened had he not basically ended taxes for the top bracket. Should taxes have been lowered? Sure. But by like, 40%? God no. The budget cuts fundamentally changed the nation.
And yet, compared to Trump, he’s like this ideal Republican candidate who at least wouldn’t abandon geopolitical allies while fucking over the working class and the lower class. It’s just insane how far the GOP has fallen and it’s even crazier how so many still think they’re not doing enough.
Fuck Christian fundamentalists and fuck anti-government zealots who want to defund the government and everything it provides for those that need its assistance.
Literally the backbone of why they left to settle America lol.
Who are the anti-government zealots you speak of?
Those that live on the fringes of both sides of the political spectrum. Mostly far-right conservatives, but also some non-pragmatic libertarians and anarchists
Anti government people seem to COMPLETELY forget that Corporations exist outside government, and we DONT get a vote on how they run things, and thats if the power vacuum doesnt attract a warlord or tyrant
