  • Reagan did this in the 1980s, Reagan as always, was a big source of modern issues in America.

"Yeah that makes sense, he was the 2nd worst Republican."

  • Biden did this in 2005, and was okay with it until recently.

"Why are you bringing up someone who's no longer president? Why do you hate the guy who didn't try hard enough to fix his mistakes?"

Weird how calling someone out from a while for their actions works, but not calling someone out for their actions.

My point was that the relevance of Reagan and Biden go hand in hand. If one is relevant then they both are. We either examine the past and learn from it, or we continue to repeat the mistakes.
