As an old fart I've never lived under an administration that I considered a real threat. Even Reagan, who was raged against by the left and beloved by the right, at least had some restraint and considered his actions. Each president did something that I didn't like but I never felt like psychopaths had taken over and were just letting their whims and manias run rampant. Their personalities also felt reasonable and at the very least respectful of others. I also never felt that a large chunk of my fellow citizens were a threat to democracy. The evangelicals were always that way but felt like a fringe group before.
Reagan's just took time to poison the system. Everything we're seeing now is from that time period, built up.
reagan also had alzheimers at the time,
Hell of a thing, ain't it? I remember the tail end of Regan as a child. I come from evangelicals, these are the sort of events I would expect them to freak out about, but instead, they're willingly along for the ride.
