JOHN CHUCKMAN COMMENT: A WRITER ARGUES INCORRECTLY ON THE PARALLELS BETWEEN DONALD TRUMP AND RONALD REAGAN   Leave a comment

The basic reasoning here is flawed.

Reagan always had an extremely likable personality which softened things even when he lied, which he not infrequently did.

Trump has no likable personality. He is a rude loud-mouth. The fact that a lot of people ignore this fact is the measure of how desperate Americans are about a political and election establishment which completely fails to deliver anything but two versions of party boilerplate.

But even a pushy, aggressive, and wealthy man like Trump, if he were elected, would soon find how little authority a President can really command.

The last President who challenged the military-intelligence-corporate establishment which actually runs America, John Kennedy, left part of his head scattered in the streets of Dallas.

Nothing has changed. Indeed things only have become worse.
