The best part? Trump lost it on his "truth" social platform, and the morons at the Reagan Foundation have apparently lost rationality.

The ad uses public domain material, does not misrepresent what Reagan said in any way, and is concise and direct. Too much for Trump and the idiots at the Reagan Foundation to handle.

Here's the complete Reagan address:

The BBC did an excellent job of putting the context and timing in, and the specific order of the audio used in their piece www.bbc.com
The BBC doesn't make any judgement about the content, which is a shame because it's obvious that the ad doesn't misrepresent Reagan's position or meaning at all. That should be obvious with the included in the BBC article, but excluded from the ad "final chunk" of Reagan's address where, regarding tariffs, he says he is determined "to spare the American people the protectionist legislation that destroys prosperity".

So thanks, again, Trump (with an assist from the Reagan Foundation), for putting a spotlight on how today's MAGA has nothing in common with Reagan and old GOP conservatism.

And this is the same guy whose name was on a book entitled "The Art of the Deal", which suggested he is a skilled negotiator. I see none of that in Der Dotards actions or words ...

MAGA hates Reagan.

He's just a RINO in the fascist world of Trumpism.
