I fully agree. I appreciate Reagan words, but accompanying such sacred words with such a bad administration had the catastrophic consequence of people associating the bad consequences to the ideas he promoted.

Reagan was great. Memory is selective. People forget how terrible Carter was and the 1970s stagflation and gasoline ⛽️ lines and shortages
Which of Reagan successors have been more impressive? Bush? Clinton? Obama?

Being not as bad as Bush, Clinton, or Obama is not the standard for doing a good job.

Fair enough
edit: You raise an interesting point: maybe the Revolution led by Newt Gingrich was more impressive
How would you grade Speaker Newt who was backstabbed by his own party in 1998 (fucking idiots/traitors)?
