Comparing Ronald With Donald

Whether this is the greatest presidency of my lifetime, I think it's one of the most important. Reagan and Trump are going to be 1 and 2 no matter what. And but it's— they're very different times. Reagan helped us avoid, you know, a second Jimmy Carter term, and that's really important. And Reagan brought a dignity and a strength to the office that were so important and resonate to this very day. But after he left, through Democrat presidents and some Republican presidents who weren't conservative enough, and some Congresses that were decidedly not conservative enough, we dug ourselves a hole in this country that it took Donald Trump to start to dig us out of in 2016. He wanted to keep digging us out in 2020. Fate had other ideas. And so maybe part of my joy is that not only did we survive the 4 years of Biden, I guess we have, unless we started World War III with the long-range missiles that he now tells Ukraine that they can launch well into Russia. Ain't that great? 60-some days before Trump takes over, he's got it. Got a few weeks to start World War III. Why not leave that in Trump's lap? That's a good topic for today. 1-800-PRAGER-7777. 6, 1-800-PRAGER-776. What do you want President Trump to do about this entire Ukraine mess? But anyway, it was a huge mess personally for a lot of people losing this election. It wasn't like me, you know, when Bob Dole lost in 1996. It wasn't like, you know, like me when Mitt Romney lost in, you know, 2012. Yeah, it was disappointing. I thought the country had had its fill of Obama. Whoops, I was wrong about that. Um, and it was disappointing, and you dust yourself off and you live to fight another day. Where did that skill go? Because again, in the days following the election— and I spent some time talking with you about this last time I was here for Dennis— relationships were fractured, families were broken, friendships destroyed, because folks just couldn't handle that she lost, couldn't handle, that he won. And I blame a lot for— well, first of all, it's total personal responsibility. If you are stupid enough to believe that Trump really is Hitler, if you are unsophisticated and ignorant enough to believe that he really does pose a danger to democracy, that's on you. Now, if you're 20, you know, and just glaring at TikTok all day, I know why you're stupid, but don't be stupid. There is no excuse.
