1. Ronald Reagan would....

....absolutely LOVE Donald Trump. Trumpism is the ultimate goal of All things Republican.

3. I visited then-USSR during Reagan's second term and the Russian people hated him

Because Gorbachev was instituting more progressive policies, but the Russian hardliners forced Gorbachev to cut back on them because Reagan was so tough on both Gorbachev and Russia.

2. This is one of the first times

I’ve seen or heard of Sen Slotkin doing commentary on news programs . She is clearly strong spoken and extremely intelligent , I could see her shining on a national stage . I look forward to hearing more from her .
She has a CIA background ? Did I hear that correctly ?

4. Senator Slotkin was previously a CIA analyst. And you know who was one of Slotkin's major backers? Liz Cheney.

6. Can't say

I’m surprised

5. Nicolle looks more than just worried, she looks like she's in tears much of the day.

What a sad time.

7. Reagan wouldn't be rolling over in his grave

He'd be a specter wandering the hallways and the empty, darkened rooms of Trump's house like a ghost in a cheap horror movie. And he wouldn't leave Trump alone until the doddering old traitor, terrified and helpless, passes away from sheer fright.

(I'd pay good dough to see the movie!)

8. Sounds to me that would be a very gripping story/script!

9. Alas, Charles Laughton nor Sidney Greenstreet aren't around to play the lead.

Chris Farley would have been cool in the role, too. Any of those 3 could have done it (Farley with a little more comic melodrama) and by the end, instead of the corpulent dude the MAGA Morons voted for, we'd bring in a different actor to play the by then terminally frightened, haunted, and emaciated-Dear Leader: who better than Don Knotts?

Alas, they're all gone! But it's probably just as well because I don't have the $10,000,000 seed money needed to get things rolling. Unless Musk . . . .?
