The cuts in education that started under Reagan really came home to roost in our election of Donald Trump…

Reagan latched onto, and was the beginning of the anti-intellectual movement in the USA. He was famous for ejecting economists from government positions that didn’t agree with his Utopian “trickle Down” nonsense. The Federal Deficit exploded just as they said it would and American society entered the current progression of haves and have-nots.

Reagan was the friendly, grandfatherly face of the nascent anti-intellectual populism that now has fully exploded into the very ugly malignancy we now endure with the Trump Crime Family.
