> I'm 44 years old. Every Republican President in my lifetime has crashed the economy and started a war in the Middle East. There is a pattern...

The economy was great under Reagan.  What middle east war did he start again?

Oh that's right... more stupidity from the brain dead left.

This morning's message from the Communist Propaganda minister.

The economy APPEARED great under Reagan. It wasn’t. It was fueled by massive borrowing. He tripled the national debt.

Almost every structural problem in the US has its roots in the Reagan administration. He is one of the worst presidents ever.

AI Overview

Ronald Reagan was the president during the severe early 1980s recession.
Overview of the 1980s Recession

    Timeframe: The early 1980s economic downturn spanned from July 1981 to November 1982.

    President: Ronald Reagan served as the 40th U.S. President from January 1981 to January 1989, leading the country through this period.

    Causes: The recession was largely triggered by tight monetary policies from the Federal Reserve under chairman Paul Volcker to crush high double-digit inflation.

    Impact: Unemployment rates rose above 10% during the peak of the downturn in 1982.

    Recovery: Economic growth and job expansion returned by 1983 as inflation subsided.

AI Overview

        President Ronald Reagan did not start any major wars, but his administration ordered direct military interventions and engaged in proxy conflicts during the Cold War. 


Direct Military Interventions


Invasion of Grenada (1983): Reagan ordered U.S. troops to invade the Caribbean island of Grenada following a Marxist coup, overthrowing the island's government.

Bombing of Libya (1986): He authorized airstrikes against Libya in response to state-sponsored terrorism linked to the bombing of a Berlin discotheque.

Lebanon (1983): He deployed U.S. Marines to Beirut as part of a multinational peacekeeping force during the Lebanese Civil War. Following a devastating barracks bombing that killed 241 U.S. servicemen, American forces were withdrawn.Cold War Proxy Conflicts and the Reagan Doctrine

Nicaragua: The Reagan administration covertly funded and trained the anti-communist Contras to fight the leftist Sandinista government, leading to the illegal Iran-Contra affair when weapons sales profits were funneled to the rebels.

Afghanistan and Angola: Under the Reagan Doctrine, the U.S. provided financial and military assistance to anti-communist resistance movements, such as the mujahideen fighting the Soviet occupation in Afghanistan and insurgent groups in Angola.

Reagan inherited a broken economy from Jimmy Carter.

The national debt did "triple" from about 1 trillion in 1980 to about 2.8 trillion in 1988. 

During that same time the GDP went from 2.8 T in 1980 to about 5.3T in 1988.  So that 1.8 trillion in additional debt got us 2.5 trillion in growth over 8 years.  That's a solid investment.

"Almost every structural problem"

The 80's were pretty good for America on the economic front.

They APPEARED pretty good. Almost every structural problem in America today can be traced back to the Reagan administration.

I don’t expect you to understand how decisions made 40 years ago could produce immediate positive results while also delivering later negative results.

Nice evidence, you dumbfuq.

What does "almost" mean?
What does "Structural problem" mean?

You mushmouthed pig-ignorant fuqwit.

You can hate Reagan and there can still be an pretty good economy (as evidenced by my ACTUAL data)

You don't even have a point, you're just angry stupid.

Yeah, Russia is really flourishing under Trump. Especially now that Russia's ally Iran is on lock.

Democrats are the party of stupid.
