What's the absolute top of the shit pile Reagan did?
His aversion of the AIDS crisis led to tens of thousands of needless deaths, his gutting of social security and welfare, his support of Subprime Lending (which other Presidents followed on) led to the inevitable housing bubble of the 90s and 00s bursting in 07. He was avidly anti-union and fired thousands of federal ATC workers who were on strike, which immediately led to short term adverse affects of aerospace travel, and long-term is the impetus for Trump firing a bunch of ATC workers too. He heavily expanded Nixon's War on Drugs and instituted mandatory sentences for drug offences, which is why so many people are still in prison on drug charges despite being nonviolent offenders. The Iran-Contra scandal, and of course to say nothing of his fiscal policy and cozying up to evangelical Christians and far-right nationalists (which Trump took right out of Reagan's playbook).

People tend to skim or overlook all the bad he did because he was very charismatic and he is the blueprint for the modern-day neoconservative movements.

Oh I wouldn't make any argument that Trump was worse. Just saying Reagan was pretty bad. Same with Andrew Johnson, Woodrow Wilson, and Andrew Jackson

And Clinton being all over the Epstein files wipes out any good I felt about him as a president.

HW was also pretty shit and Dukakis should have soundly beaten HW had he not had one of the all-time worst run campaigns.

I only asked about Reagan, because I don't really know that much about that time period in US politics

I mean seriously, who fucking thought a photo op in a tank during a time of economic uncertainty and potential war was a good idea?
