Lowkey does not describe Reagan's positions overseas, hundreds of thousands of people died under the watch of dictators that he propped up, like Montt in Guatemala and the Contra army in Nicaragua. But he wasn't just a scumbag overseas, he was one here in the USA as well. His govt implemented a sentence for sales of crack cocaine that were 10x more stiff than powdered coke, a blatant slap to the face of minorities who were suffering from the crack epidemic he fostered.no American President is "a saint" but are we really equating Reagan vs Castro? c'mon guys...
now AZ, you're not being unreasonable and i respect ur position...put it like this,
let's say you wanna be completely neutral and say Reagan was a lowkey scumbag overseas in da name of American interests...at least in a way u can see he was a doing it in da name of patriotism..
Castro couldn't even be a proper scum bag for da beneficiary of his own people.
Last I checked Castro only ****** up his own country (which is not excusable), while Reagan ****** over not only people in several countries, but his own people here at home. In my eyes, both Castro and Reagan were evil men

Within a shorter period of time Raegan implemented policies that destroyed millions of lives. If anything that makes him more of a devil.
vs Castro? stop it.
no one sneaks into Cuba, meanwhile Reagan gave Amnesty to millions who came here illegally..try that Bull **** in Havanna
hell..

most of those drug policies were bipartisan, u seen 13 so u know NOBODY's hands were clean. like i said before, US props up dictatorships, as long we can control em for da United States interest, and we benefiting from that.
Castro couldn't even be a pitbull FOR his own Country.

It seems like you're supporting the US propping up dictatorships as long as it benefits us.
If Castro had worked with the US would you care about the people there? [emoji]129300[/emoji]
Ronald Reagan the devil btw never forget

But would you care if the US propped up his dictatorship is what I'm asking.
Like if Reagan had decided to work with him for US interests, for example.

I agree that nobody's hands were clean, but he was the President who signed them into law. He was the president who made speeches about the war on drugs that really only affected us minorities while leaving the affluent to do whatever they wanted.
We propped up dictators and regimes in ways that came back to bite us in the ***. Sold Hussein weapons, then toppled him, and now we have ISIS (who are hilariously being blamed on Obama and Hilary). We supported the Afghan rebels in the war against the Soviets, and thus the Taliban was born. Ironically Bin Laden was funded by the US in the fight against the Soviets. How'd that turn out?
Castro did monstrous things to his own people during his rise to power and after. I will never sit here and say that Castro was a good person, although he did good things. The same can be said for Reagan, he did great things for a certain segment of this country, and monstrous things to another segment of this country.

So what you're saying is:
Reagan funded right wing dictatorships in South/Central America
Then opened the US doors to the refugees who suffered the consequences of his henchmen.
For that, he should be lauded.
I can't even...

-He didn't do that single-handedly
-The economy under Clinton was way better.
-Him being reelected doesn't absolve him from his BS foreign policy decisions

-peace thru strength was his own making.
-Reagan had to errect a robust economy from da shambles of da Carter administration from da ground up, Clinton just had to make sure not to scratch da paint.
-Obama & Dubya got way worst foreign policy records than Reagan.

- Wow. The USSR feel because of bad governance and economic difficulties
-Wrong. Listen we have been over this, donot know economic history. Reagan didn't repair Carter's economy. What hurt Carter was oil shock and runaway inflation. Reagan fixed neither. In many ways, it was Clinton and the tech boom that made up for Reagan's fiscal mistakes.
-Dubya was a disaster, Obama has been bad. But Reagan is still arguably much worst.

You have no idea what happen to the economy under Carter though. That is the point
Carter had to deal with a oil shock, it was Paul Volcker's actions that squashed the inflation under Reagan.
Reagan spent and spent and spent and spent. When the supply side tax cuts didn't work, he sure did indulge in da deficit spending. A hallmark of da Keynesian
And CNN is not a authority, and you're confusing correlation with causation.
