    Wow! Nice Post guy! Of course we all remember exactly where we were and what we were doing when the President was murdered. I was very young but horrified. I tried to reach my boss (I was an Exec. Secy), he was in a closed meeting. When he came to the office, he walked past me and closed his door. Finally he called me in and commented that he knew I had been crying and he was sorry we were all going through such a sad situation. He assured me he too was suffering. The very thought of this Act was intolerable to us both. If someone says they don't remember, I say they are a liar!

    I am a total Optimist. I cannot put my head around all this hate business, and free business! A young lady today being interviewed on TV said she grew up in a Socialist (Communist) country. She said they had 'equal' everything. Equality to have no hot running water. Equality to starve. Equality not to have any money. That's why she fled that country, it was so equal it collapsed! She loves America! I bet she's registered to vote!

    Time will tell if he's a fluke or the new normal, the first in the series of clowns who get attention, in this world of newly-democratized media, by being an object of morbid fascination.

    There is some risk, maybe decreasing, that his deplorables figure out they have a lot in common with socialists and join forces. The greater risk is that regardless of whether it's serious statesmen or clowns pandering to the deplorable element of society, gov't spending, borrowing, intrusiveness and disregard for the law keep increasing.

    Don’t forget Reagan was an actor by profession.
    Hinkley , whose family was very good friends with the VP at the time virtually ended Reagan’ s presidency. IMHO President Reagan was way out of his league.

    I did use the cautious word "may" before supposing the rest of what I wrote.
    Being almost 72, I don't have that 25 more years myself.
    And libs still make fun of Reagan.

    (Yawn) What else is new? Scapgoating Jews has been a European pastime for 100 years and every time after all the suffering and death they come out stronger than before. I'm sure they could do without the suffering and death part, but talk about indominatible.

    More like: Hominid Callidus or in modern day terms: Parasitical Humanoids...both, only a brain in a body, aware of environment and nature but not of self nor it's behavior.

    I personally have advocated our system without parties. Of course, that has been dismissed, but think about it, you'd never would have heard of Nancy Pelosicy.

    Don't get me started on Neanderthals. They may well have been superior to homo sapiens, both mentally and physically. (Not quite as pretty , though.)

    I think that this is the one time they went too far. They are going with hate to a demented extent and the poison is recognized even by those half awake voters.

    Reagan had a grandfatherly charm and humor that let him get away with almost anything. Trump is blasted for the very same issues but he retaliates no matter what the issue. No charm but plenty of grit.He is the living example of "Don't tread on me."

    Definitely George Washington ... before becoming president.

    Trump may already be the greatest (though bitterly despised by libtards) president of roughly the last half of American history. If not then some.

    What is significantly different here is that while the liberals hated Reagan and Bush, and still hate them, with Trump they also hate everyone who voted for him or has the temerity to support anything he is doing. They are determined to make a MAGA hat be equivalent to a KKK hood.

    This is a scorched earth, all inclusive hate.

    You're right. At the time of Reagan's presidency, the Democrats called him stupid, But the raw hatred wasn't there. Reagan had a sense of humor that the Democrats couldn't get past, and that helped him. Case in point, while trying to set him up to sound stupid, he was asked by the press how a visit with Bishop Tutu went, He replied, "So-so." Now the Liberals are so filled with hate that they are the ones who are stupid. And Trump is running rings around them.
