>>664894Reagan was originally a New-Deal Democrat who felt that the democrats were losing their way (lol if he could see the republicans 30 years from then), so he joined the Republicans under the impression that he could catalyze the movement again.
Instead he did the complete opposite, bankrupting the country with billions in federal debt, reckless spending AND tax cuts leaving his successor, Bush, with an economic shitfest to clean up.
tldr: Reagan was a moron and a hypocrite
