Eventhough I do think there is some value in comparing Reagan to current GOP thinking on some issues, you are totally right.

Reagan invited TBN into the whitehouse, tied the GOP to big money Christianity and paved the way for Trump.

He also neglected the AIDS crises, deregulated industry, etc.

Or Japanimation haha

Dude, I used to eat SO many of cookies at classy shows like that.
