    Ugh, crediting Reagan with the liberation of the Eastern Bloc like that is hugely disrespectful to the people from those countries who put themselves on the line to fight for freedom - including Solidarność in Poland itself. Reasgan didn’t have that much to do with it, especially his ‘famous’ speech which didn’t really have much of an impact at all at the time.

        That’s assuming Republicans have a moral compass or consistent ideological positions. That’s not the case though. It’s all just about what benefits them and their donors.
