That is all I can think of. His hatred of Government and elimination of the fairness doctrine created this mess. This has happened by design, so Fuck Raygun.

Reagan was just as corrupt as Trump. He just couldn't get away with as much in those days.

He and Bush made a deal with idiots like Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson to consolidate power.
Sure, we’ll oppose abortion if you support us.

The Republicans were dumb enough to think they could control their zealots. Nope, once you let that camel stick his nose in the tent, game over.

Bob Dole was a respected establishment Republican politician. He absolutely loved Trump, right up until his death in 2021. Had he passed away in 2003 or so, nearly everyone here would be saying how much he would hate Trump if he were alive.

He was also an institutionalist... so I suspect he'd hate Trdump.
