Oh really. The guy who called Black women "Welfare Queens driving Cadillacs" and Black Men "Young bucks eating steak." Not only was he racist but he was lying because Black people weren't the largest group on welfare. That honor was reserved for White single mothers from the South. Guessing it still is. Reagan also broke the law selling arms to Iran's Khomeini government in violation of an embargo funneling the money to the Contras in Nicaragua, in violation of the Boland Amendment. The only reason Reagan didn't cool his heels in prison for the rest of his life is our stupid system of letting off the rich and connected for everything.
