You not being able to read isn't surprising.Same here, They are like a fat lady in a malt shop, justifying their t3h Doanld support,This topic is priceless. The tards are calling Reagan a RINO.
I knew it! I've known they would feel that way about Reagan for a long time.
Since that is the case, I wish you tards would quit the pretense of idolizing Reagan. You have been worshipping a man you know NOTHING about.
You have hijacked conservatism and utterly destroyed it. Trump's success is proof.
If conservatism was alive and well, Trump would not have even attempted to run as a Republican.grasping at straws

And don't bring up his fiscal record as it was based on arms build-up (AKA- crony capitalism based on spending taxpayer $$$)

AND granted amnesty AND created massive debt relative to GDP of the time

Hmmm. There's something to that, I suppose. But, I don't see where that should make a conservative comfortable with Trump as the nominee. Exactly the opposite, in my case.
In 1996, and again in 2000, Forbes attempted to win on his flat tax proposal. In 1996, Slick's reelection was pretty much a foregone conclusion, and Dole got the nod. In 2000, Forbes got killed by the Rove machine, linking him to his father's gay life, lukewarm support for no abortion in any case and ..... school prayer. LOL I'm the first to admit W's killing of the Reagan conservatism in the gop was possibly worse than his killing of the US army in Iraq.
But, we've just witnessed donors pledging upwards of a billion dollars to anyone, ANYONE, willing to take the pledge of ending corporate welfare (including most likely home mortgage deductions) and possibly ending welfare as a personal lifestyle, in exchange for a sizeable personal income tax cut. Clean air and water positions were never fully fleshed out. But, instead we have ... the Donald.
Leaving foreign policy aside, I don't really care about social issues that much, and I don't think common core is a threat to the nation or will turn all the kids gay or something. But, I do care about deficits.
All this Trump shite about deporting all the illegals or turning back the clock on globalization .... bs. You could decide to issue 10 million work permits to aliens and make it very hard to be in the US without a permit, but that's not what Trump proposed. He played the race card. Trump's talking about spending billions we don't have on border patrols and new courts. He's the LEAST fiscally conservative guy in the lot.

Well he did make markets more transparent, and did allow private individuals to allocate more capital to markets.because he was dummy.

But, yeah, he'd be a rino to most today.

PERMANENTLY as well. All one has to do is look at their pay stub. Thats why its ironic when conservatives point to Ronnie when asked to name their fave con Prez

My reaction to those three names was about the same, except I would have added that Coulter and Palin are self-aggrandizing self promoters who'll say anything to get 30 secs of airtime and really have no ideology to the core except an overarching egotism and an ugly caricature of America in their hearts so alien it arouses the same hatreds in their followers that the worst of the 19th century Know Nothings fed on. They themselves are self caricatures of the most ignorant of those 19th century Know Nothings. I don't know enough about Savage to have developed the same contempt for him.

ah, no I don't. And I have to leave. I will bookmark this page though, if you'd care to tell me. Thanks. Have a nice evening.

they don't like being told that someone might be more knowledgeable than them/not use slogans. Even The National Journal is shunned by the nativist bumper sticker crowd now.
Important point- Trump has not said how he's going to accomplish all the lofty goals he's put forth. Know why? Because he doesn't know either.

Cant answer the question, eh?
Yeah taxes were lower when Reagan left office.
Why didn't you answer his question?
For all those libs who can't understand why a conservative would support Trump.
His stated policies would be very beneficial for America.
More so than what we can expect from the Establishment Republicans.
AND his complete dismissal of Political Correctness is very attractive and as it hopefully will weaken PC, would also be very beneficial for America.
Sooooo, I hope that helps clear things up for you.

Because the answer is taxes were lower. He cannot give an answer because either he would be lying (not that its bothered him before) or it would reveal that his post was completely wrong and stupid.
Either way he looks like a fool so he has to deflect.

they were higher Rabbi. As was the deficit and spending. The marginal rates, esp on the wealthy, were lowered but a combination of closing "loopholes" and higher gnp resulted in more revenues. Unfortunately the revenues did not keep pace with the rising deficits caused by Reagan's spending increases.
Wrong. Tax rates were lower. Total income to the Treasury was higher as high earners paid more in taxes because they could keep more of what they earned.
Congress continued to vote for higher levels of spending because that's what Democrats do.
And Obama's deficits are bigger than Reagan's entire budget.
Pwned again.
