I dunno dawg, that's a value judgement. How about you go out and read a number of books on him and American history so you can come to your own conclusion instead of lazily shitting out a thread on Veeky Forums and letting other people do your thinking for you

No, He was the prototype for everything that's come since.

This should be stickied somewhere

No. Im a conservative republican and i hate most of the stuff he did.

We shouldve undid his gun legislation, trade deals, and tax reform along time ago.

Then what the fuck would be the point of this board?

Before asking a question, you'd first write out enough information to show you actually did some research on what you're talking about, and give your conclusion based what you looked up, perhaps even (God forbid) posting the source of your info. But that would be LAME and would wouldn't get enough replies, so instead just post a picture of the pool at auschwitz and type "Prove the holohoax wasn't made up using legitimate sources." Then call everything used against you a biased Jewish source.

Now stop your bitching. It's Veeky Forums, what do you expect?

Well, ...

He's a meme president that only retarded baby boomers and Gen Xer like. Jimmy Carter was a better president than him.

>inb4 Reaganomics
I highly recommend everyone read about his role in the Iran Iraq War and his handling of the Middle East in general. The dude wasn't an idiot.

>Jimmy Carter was a better president th-

I asked people who lived under the time and they say that the time he was President was actually a great time to be American. It just wasn't sustainable.

He was a terrible president who betrayed even right-wing causes. He's only remembered fondly because he happened to be in office when the Soviet Union's economy collapsed and we won the Cold War by default.

>ran up US government deficit to unprecedented levels
>remembered as an icon of fiscal responsibility
How the fuck did the GOP pull this myth off?

>neoliberalism

He literally ruined the world

Reaganomics are literally the source of why the world right now is falling apart and why the Chinks will be the supreme overlords in 20 years..

His foreign policy was brety gud. His domestic policy brety bad.

These people know.

He was the first radical centrist president.

>His foreign policy was brety gud.
Funding death squads in central america or supplying Saddam with nerve gas?

Foreign relations =/= economics

That being said I liked his tax reforms and he really did make the average citizen much better off in the long run, raising their median family income an average of 4000 dollars, but at the cost of raising the debt almost 2 Trillion dollars. There would have been a slower, but much steadier rise of real wealth if he had just cut taxes and made ease of business in the US better if he had not spent so fucking much on random ass shit like the Star Wars program, but oh well.

Do you think him and Maggie ever banged?

>The dude wasn't an idiot.
>funds Taliban
>trains Bin Laden

>supplying Saddam with nerve gas
Literally what is wrong with this?
>muh kurds

>he funded a movement that didn't exist until he was out of office
So this is the power of brainletposting

He was the best US president post-WW2.
He still had his flaws, but those were nothing out of the ordinary for US standards.

And he used it much more heavily against the Iranians. People only talk about it because muh Kurds; no one gives a fuck about Iran because of their status as a sworn American enemy.

>People only talk about it because muh Kurds; no one gives a fuck about Iran
You've got that right. Neither should anyone give a fuck about Iran.

>take credit for what little good Carter managed to do
>set us up for massive failure

I don't typically wish disease on people, but the piece of shit deserved more.

Reminder that the economic doctrine of the Republican Party comes from some asshole writing a debunked graph on the back of a napkin in a bar.

The point was that the outrage over chemical weapons usage is hypocritical. Its either completely wrong or absolutely permitted morally. You don't get to decide its wrong all of a sudden when it gets used on a group of people you sympathize with without being a hypocrite.

>le insert /pol/ boogeyman out of nowhere in a non-related thread
kill yourself commie

>lol the wealth will trickle down
>lol California won't turn into a Mexican colony after this amnesty
>lol the budget will balance itself
>lol just let the Chinks build everything

He should have been taken into the National Mall and shot for treason.

"No". I have no idea how they somehow tricked Republicans into thinking he was amazing.

He would have been much more successful if he didn't take a bullet to the chest a year into his first term.

>don't worry about crazy people ending up on the streets, the communities will handle it

Because his policies were good for people with money, and people with money control what normies think.

a better question is why do some people think he is great

Regardless of how he performed and what people think of him, he should have been forced to retire after his first term. He was clearly not the same man, the assassination attempt coupled with his declining mental state basically put him out of commission for his final two years in office.

>leftists are literally this retarded and delusional
Colour me surprised.

he was certainly better then that guy who is now in office

youtube.com/watch?v=VjCyVfBiwpE
Obligatory.

Yeah, but the guy if office right now is there because of the trends in Politics started by Reagan.

Yeah bro the wealth will just trickle down hahahah

Consumption from the lower and middle class drives the economy, not investment you dumb cunt

>niggers getting welfare and spending it on air jordans drives the economy
okay.jpg

>makes a speech saying that there are certain groups who are operating from behind the scenes
>gets assassinated

/pol/ ruins this place once again

pick up an intro macroeconomics textbook or something. This job creators meme that panders to gullible idiots like you justifies people getting obscenely wealthy while the economy as a whole suffers.

Faggot.
