Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsI was in college when Ronnie Raygun was elected.
I never dreamed I would dislike any president as much as I disliked him. Then came Bush 2 with his WMD lies and endless wars. Now there's Trump destroying the progress we made over the last 8 years. It is almost surreal to me that he ever got elected. This racist, sexist pig is already proving to be the worst president in my lifetime. I am an atheist but I pray to whatever for impeachment.

Trump is waaay worse.

(25,380 posts)I find him so repulsive. I tried watching the American Experience documentary. I managed to watch it once, but I can't watch it again.
I would rather watch Trump than Reagan any day. At least Trump's buffoonery provides some entertainment. Reagan's beady eyes and dead seriousness made my skin crawl.

And conservatives consider him a god. Go figure.

(12,213 posts)Reagan, Bush I, Bush II, Trump...they were all (and are) focused on the same agenda: destroy the middle class.
And they are succeeding.
It's a class war, and nothing less.
I think we had it right with Occupy Wall Street, but that sadly ended.
