June 12th, 1987. Better days for America and the West and a strong president lead the Free World against the wishes of many at the time.

Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall! Damn I miss Mr. Reagan. If the rest of the world actually started to focus on real issues rather than elitism and self gain, terrorism attacks would be nearly eradicated within six months. Instead, America has to go it alone once again it seems.

Mr. Trump, Build that wall! Too bad he didn't make a speech like that today.

Reagan didn't get much applause from the MSM at the time but JFK was treated like a hero when he want to Germany while the Russians were building the Wall, gave a speech where he said "we are all Berliners" but he used the slang term for Berliner which was jelly donut and then he went home and did nothing for all those poor people. The media loved it though.
