    Until Botha sides stop becoming extreme, we won’t see the country get better. If you haven’t seen Reagan the movie. Go watch it. It’s weird but the one take away is how different politics have become. Reagan made everyone laugh and feel comfortable. He worked with democrats. He had democrats friends. Both sides weren’t as bitter.

    I think people forget that Regan crushed the elections. I can’t see anyone doing that now days.

      “Socially liberal” man liked Reagan and Reagan (2024). Go figure.

      Ty Burr gave the film 1.5/4 stars, writing, “The faithful for whom Reagan was made aren’t likely to see that it’s a hagiography as rosy and shallow as anything in a Kremlin May Day parade. As pop-culture propaganda — popaganda, if you will — the movie’s strictly for true believers. As history, it’s worthless.”

        No clue who Ty Burr is but historically Regan and tip we’re friends. Reagan crushed both elections.
