Ummm....no.

The thing about Reagan is the he didn't care what those in foreign countries thought of him.

Much of the populace of Europe was dead set against how he dealt with the Soviets and did not like Reagan. They were flabbergasted when he walked out of talks with Gorby and didn't think the policy of US nukes stationed there was a good idea.

Reagan also raised taxes as President, part of a deal with Confgress that taught him a valuable lesson about making deals with Congress. They didn't keep their end, which was to cut spending by $2 for every dollar in increased taxes. Didn't work out quite that way.

I'm not confident voting for either for President.
