Well when someone actually calls them out on their Ronald Reagan-pedestal BS, they finally might. He was actually very moderate compared to almost everyone here.

That is because all of his moderate positions have backfired. The immigration deal, and the tax hikes come to mind. The plain fact is that what he traded in those deals never materialized. Thus, the platform is keep the good Reagan and learn from his mistakes.


Did any of his positions not backfire though?

OH MAN it's time for a war on heart disease, great. Let's do that without universal healthcare, sounds easy. Let's just "cure" high blood pressure. You're a lunatic Huckabee.


Tax cuts, confronting the USSR, Volker at the Fed, his general rhetorical style, all worked out well for the long term.

When a Democrat points out that Reagan was moderate and compromised on things, they are basically pointing out to Republicans why they cannot be trusted, and why compromise should be a dirty word.

Democrats use Reagan however they see fit. He's either a moderate or a radical right-winger. Even his enemies use him.

I guess I should have specified "any of the positions the people on that stage support not backfire." I mean they're pretty much espousing the polar opposite of his USSR policy and divesting tax cuts from tax hikes is kind of strange. And other than Rand I don't think any of them know what the Fed is.

They also wouldn't have appointed Volcker because he was a Democrat.

Carson and Cruz had really weak closing speeches. Trump wants more of everything, including disease. Bush is just blablablaing. Only really liked Rubio's ending speech so far.

Carly's speech is good, but not about America or her presidency, just really generic.
