I saw some posts about trumps speech. It got me thinking about leveraging the best of others from the past. There is no one better than Reagan when it comes to simplifying a message. Watch this from Reagan.

A subtle reminder to just how corrupt our government is, and how broken the electorate is.

Mondale only took Minnesota and DC, not the whole state of Maryland.

Reagan was a genuine patriot and uniter and would cross the aisle to get things done. He would never accept the role as an extremist.

The GOP needs some more Ronald Reagan types.

This map put the dirty M-Fers in 24/7 mode to turn the country at all costs. When this happened, it served to motivate them to a level never seen before. Their sick beliefs got turned on overdrive at this, while we thought all was right and we were headed the proper direction. To them, it was the end of the world and they had to fix it.

This is the lesson we should take from where we are now. The Leftist never sleeps.

The first step is for the Republican Party to nominate a Conservative instead of a radical.

So just to clarify, if I don't idol worship the ***** grabber but claim to want a true conservative, I am a socialist? Got it. So if we lose the next election, do we attack all the seats of power again wearing fake mitary costumes? Just need to know the game plan. I am sure one day our grandkids will be proud.

I said nothing about a ***** grabber. You did. Ronald Regan had the slogan first. Would you consider him a true conservative? The seats of power were attacked by the minimum of 2000 Mules. The video and cell data proves it. You going to deny that? I don't really care if it is Trump or DeSantis. Do you? Obviously not Trump for you, but will you Bearpitbull, vote for DeSantis? If you are a conservative, WILL YOU VOTE for DeSantis? He's not a *****graber. He is the best choice, by many conservatives on this board. Will you vote for DeSantis?

If you don't reply as a yes, we'll just mark you down as a "CM". and move on.

The slogan has been used by a number of different politicians, some Republicans and some Democrats.

That said, they didn't all use it in the same way. For example, President Reagan's use of the term was not used with the intention of stirring up a nationalist revolution.

Because it's not true. Donald Trump is an icon that causes many people to be unable to debate policy and instead launch into screeds about his personal conduct and how it offends them. There is nothing radical about his policies. Hispolicies brought prosperity and security to the US. There was nothing radical about that.

What I'd like to see if the gop leverage Reagan, his speeches and what he believed it. The gop needs an identity outside of trump and you could even think back to newt Gingrich and the contract with America. I very simple this is what we believe in.

Who is an extremist? Aside from most of your party?

Because Trump was less "extreme" than a Ronald Reagan in just about every way.

DJT freaks people out not for who he is, but who he represents. Communism has historically not been able to gain a foothold in countries with a strong Middle Class who has a belief that they can be financially upwardly mobile. The wealthy do not want their wealth diluted. The filthy Useful Idiot does not want a successful Middle Class either, because muh Communism can't get traction. Trump was the voice of the Middle Class, and it had the chance to upset the "system" and it could not be successful from either front's view.

Yeah, I threw the map up without looking at it closely enough. I wish I had noticed the miscoloration before my post started to get replied to.

On a few other notes. What's amazing about Reagans defeat of Mondale was that even in Mondales own state Reagan came within 3,700 votes of defeating him. Reagan and Mondale both got at least 49% of the vote there. Pretty amazing performance by the best Presidential communicator in modern America, arguably the best ever.

The electoral map will likely never look like this, but it would be interesting to see how good Reagan could do in our current moment.

What concerns me about our future is that back in 1984, Reagan won New York by the same margins as the GOP wins in Texas right now.

Ironically, that fate will be determined by how well GOP can bring Latinos into their fold. A need that exists partially based on one of the worst deals Reagan made with democrats during his presidency.
