Ronald Reagan’s son is lashing out against Donald Trump (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/news/donald-trump/), expressing his disbelief and disappointment that the man running for president on the GOP ticket technically represents the same party his father once did.


“No way do I or would my father support this garbage,” Michael Reagan wrote in a tweetstorm (https://twitter.com/ReaganWorld/status/782811060101230592) Sunday night, linking to a Politico article (http://www.politico.com/story/2016/10/trump-accuses-hillary-of-cheating-on-bill-229011) dissecting Trump’s latest comments on Hillary Clinton (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/news/hillary-clinton/), his opponent, whom he accused of being unfaithful to former President Bill Clinton.


“If this is where he is going I cannot follow him,” he continued, adding that his father would have probably reacted by saying something like: “I didn’t leave the Party, the Party left me.”


Reagan also urged Reince Priebus, chairman of the Republican National Committee, to take a stand against Trump.


“Getting [to] a Point with Trump where I just don’t give a shit,” Reagan wrote.

The last living links to Reagan, his children, all denounce Donald Trump. Three strikes and you're out of the Reagan 'legacy'.

No surprises. Trump is not a conservative.

He is a nationalist, and that is why his supporters don't seem to care about his gaffs and his lack of political skill.

Well, if Michael Reagan - who is a loon - unloads on Trump, then Trump must REALLY be a loon! :)

More like "con man", "opportunist", "pathological liar".

Am I the only person who gives no fucks what anyone else says about (x candidate) and make up my own mind about candidates?

Everyone should make up their own mind. Still there is such a thing as "informed consensus".

Donald Trump has ZERO daily newspaper endorsements. Zero, out of the 25 or so that have been put forward so far. The only people backing him are the "deplorables". Doesn't it make you wonder?

Not really. I know a lot of people that are not "deplorable" by any sense of the word that are voting for Trump. I don't know anyone supporting Hillary that thinks she's a great candidate or person, they just vote for her because she's not Trump.

It's all irrelevant to me. I cannot, in good conscience, vote for either Trump or Clinton, so I will not.

His children are only a very small part of his legacy... and probably the least important part, at that.

Nothing can be more ironic than a Hillary supporter whining about pathological liars.

You can line up all the "quasi" conservatives you like to denounce Trump; the notion that Hillary is more conservative is mind numbingly stupid.

Nope; but there are some liberals here who seem convinced that if they throw enough invective at Trump, it will make Hillary look less repulsive.

...and nothing can be more moronic or ironic than a "conservative" paper endorsing a leftist Liberal proclaiming her opponent as not being conservative.

Of course, many in this country are too painfully dumb and ignorant to comprehend the OBVIOUS.
