The real reason President Trump is angry about Doug Ford and Ontario airing the Ronald Reagan speech warning about the dangers of tariffs and his support for fair and free trade has nothing to do with his trade policies. The public domain speech simply illustrates how a President can deliver an articulate, factually informative speech in five minutes. No dancing, no ranting off topic, no one hour diatribes of meaningless drivel – just the need to know, clean and clear.
Now, President Reagan was no saint (then CIA director George Bush and the Contra Scandal) but he knew how to read his lines with dignity and eloquent authority. Now, someone else may have written those speeches, but they also were literate members of staff. It appears that literacy is no longer an employment standard, only loyalty to the Emperor Who Has No Clothes. Wake up America!
The real reason The President is angry is because he can’t compete with the class act that surrounded Ronald Reagan. “Garbage in, garbage out”, Donald.
And it’s time to take out the trash, the way I see it.
