    “people stop wanting progressive policies because we stop pushing for them”

    Nice made up quote that has nothing to do with what I wrote. We lost progressive policies because believed Reagan’s lies, not because he ran as anti-labor.

    Reagan sleazed in by sabotaging Carter with a backdoor deal Reagan made with Iran.

    Reagan actually ran as a New Deal loving Union President.

        There’s you problem right there.

        I just double checked and re-read everything I posted in this thread.

        I didn’t use the word ‘reactionary’ once.

            I’m not sure we are working from the same definition of reactionary.

            That’s you using a word.

            A word I never used.

            Obviously, you’re confused and continuing would be a complete waste of time.

            I mean, if I haven’t seen your comments, what is the point?

              Reagan represented a popular movement of reactionary conservatism

              We lost progressive policies because believed Reagan’s lies, not because he ran as anti-labor.

              Maybe i’m confused, it seems like you were responding to me calling Reagan reactionary by saying he wasn’t ‘anti-labor’.

              Not sure how your response related to my comment otherwise, honestly. Either you were addressing my use of the word reactionary or you were talking to yourself.
