Wrong. I know history----and I know a lot of history. You are ill-advised to get into political and historical discussions with me. You'll lose every trip of the train. https://www.washingtonpost.com/arch...choices/3099b261-26ac-4d2d-a104-ec62d64f8dca/ President Reagan yesterday sent a "hard choices" $994 billion budget to a highly skeptical, election-minded Congress that responded with howls of pain, ridicule from Democrats and GOP pressure for an early compromise. House Armed Services Committee Chairman Les Aspin (D-Wis.) called the proposal "dead before arrival," and Sen. Bill Bradley (D-N.J.) said there were not even 25 votes in favor of it in the Republican-controlled Senate. Senate Budget Committee Chairman Pete V. Domenici (R-N.M.) called for a summit meeting "to see if we can put a package together," including tax increases opposed by Reagan. Many lawmakers complained that the budget would cut too deeply into domestic programs and not enough into defense, a complaint that has greeted all of Reagan's budgets.
I wish it was a lack of imagination and incompetence. It's more insidious than that. It's about redistribution of wealth from the treasury's coffers to their pockets.
So what was the final budget for fiscal year 1987, Professor? Oh wait congress talked a bunch of stuff so that means what Reagan didn’t get the vast majority of the budget he proposed? Or, did he make a few concessions and get the budget he asked for? Look man you’re trying to shape history to fit a narrative instead of basing your narrative on actual history.
If Biden doesn't lose a re election race he is a shoe in for top 20,probably top 15.He will be credited with ending the pandemic and the economic recovery.Barring handling a major disaster poorly the only thing that would hurt his position as a good to great president would be losing re election as one termers due to re election lost rate poorly.HW Bush is the one one termer who doesn't rank that bad but I think he gets cut some slack since he lost due to a third party candidate.
