Like I said....Reagan talked a lot.
But when push came to shove, he didn't shove.
He shoved the Soviets enough to make them FAIL.
And wasn't that his goal?
Ummm, yeah, if you believe in magical history.
The Soviets failed for the same reason the British empire failed. Because 140 million Russians ruling over 300 million non-Russians wasn't an arrangement anyone wanted to work with any more.
Had very little to do with Reagan, and the CIA completely missed the breakup of the USSR until it actually occurred. They were still publishing intelligence estimates calling them an imminent threat all the way up to 1988.
Heck, the breakup didn't even happen on Reagan's watch, it happened on Bush-41's.
The "ummmm" thing's not working....it's so valley-girl.
Amazing how you lower-level Leftists refuse to give President Reagan the credit he deserves.
The amusing part is how you are always just a little behind the Leftist elites who give you your talking points.
Watch your back: they're hanging you out to dry! The Leftist elites are beginning to admit to Reagan's accomplishments!
Better take a look at item #5 in the OP.
