From Jack Jodell at The Saturday Afternoon Post:
In recent times, we have been exposed to the vastly different outlooks of two separate Republian presidents on immigration: one, a confident, true leader who came of age during a time of war and depression, and the other, an insecure, mediocre, bombastic, spoiled-rotten, pampered, criminal rich boy who has never had to struggle his entire life. Their opinions on the value of immigrants and many other things could not be further apart.
Ronald Reagan grew up in modest circumstances and grew to adulthood in a time of grave crises for our country. Donald Trump grew up in the lap of comfortable luxury. Below is a transcript of Reagan’s farewell address to the nation in 1989. It was delivered from a mature and secure man, and it differs tremendously from the immature, hateful, anti-refugee and anti-immigrant paranoid rantings we hear constantly from Trump, as you will discover by reading Reagan’s speech below. You will easily understand why the British Ambassador just referred to Trump as being “inept, insecure, and incompetent”.
