Maher couldn't understand what Obama talks about Reagan like he's a "brother from another mother." He said, "When you mainstream Reagan, the far right becomes the new middle," and declared that both sides need to drop the Reagan worship once and for all. "He was patient zero for everything you're fighting against now. He was the original teabagger


My take is Reaganomics at the time was a net positive adjusting for 40-50 years of liberalism maybe taken to extremes. We had about the right balance 20 years ago when Clinton became president and it seemed to deviate little for most of his term.. GOP control of congress, the internet, cheap labor from China and after effects of the fall of communism changed the game for good? Continuing to double down on Reagan this late into 30+ years of trickle down economics, record wealth disparity, outsourcing, union busting ect is a losing game. Look no further than the stock market hitting record highs just like in the mid 80's and the mid to late 90's but this time J6P being left in the dust..
