Reagan is clearly an imperialist, in a sense. Removed regulations on capitalism, made things worse for minorities.

Can we just admit that every single Republican presidency/administration following Theodore Roosevelt has bastardized the USA in one way or another?

Before 2016, sure. These days I’m not sure anything less than either aggrieved leftists out-CIAingPaddocking a Blackrock investor conference or a full-on Maoist insurgency would get them to do a 70s-republican redux on guns. Like when a leftist does a shooting like in Dayton, the most you’ll hear out of them is a tu quoque followed by some blame the culture war BS.
No, because Jimmy “history’s greatest monster” Carter was also pretty bad, and while Clinton was better than the CIA plant that he replaced, I know an awful lot of Serbs who have extremely hard feelings towards him regarding his actions in the former Yugoslavia, and quite a few Canadian, Mexican, and American friends who have hard feelings towards him regarding NAFTA. Obama persecuted more whistleblowers than all previous administrations combined, expanded the drone war, pressured my country to throw my mate Kim Dotcom in prison for spurious reasons, and is directly responsible for the election of Donald Trump.
I wish liberals would stop using that as a win, because it always comes at the expense of social programs. “Sorry, M4A can’t be done because we need to get into a dick-measuring contest with the GOP over muh deficits!”

While you may have a point in that Democrat presidents sucked too, it nonetheless is in no way an argument against what he said about the Republican ones.

WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court on Friday overruled Roe v. Wade, eliminating the constitutional right to abortion after almost 50 years in a decision that will transform American life, reshape the nation’s politics and lead to all but total bans on the procedure in about half of the states.The ruling will test the legitimacy of the court and vindicate a decades-long Republican project of installing conservative justices prepared to reject the precedent, which had been repeatedly reaffirmed by earlier courts. It will also be one of the signal legacies of President Donald J. Trump, who vowed to name justices who would overrule Roe. All three of his appointees were in the majority in the 6-to-3 ruling.The decision, which echoed a leaked draft opinion published by Politico in early May, will result in a starkly divided country in which abortion is severely restricted or forbidden in many red states but remains freely available in most blue ones.Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. voted with the majority but said he would have taken “a more measured course,” stopping short of overruling Roe outright. The court’s three liberal members dissented.

RIP Roe v. Wade
Abortion about to be p.illegal with very few exceptions in half the US. Coathanger manufacturers about to get rich.

So it’s official now, huh?
Did the Dems actually put up a bill to federally garuntee abortion yet?

The day the SC starts revoking rights is a day most bleak.
Wonder what the next right to fall will be? Are we only guaranteed the rights explicitly laid out in an ancient document written by long dead men?

Democrats won’t shut the fuck up about Trump because it lets them pretend Obama and RBG’s foolishness didn’t directly lead to a 6-3 Supreme Court.
According to that old white politicians who described himself as a Constitution originalist? Yes.

Hmm, where’s that one ‘centrist’ here that swore up and down that this ruling will just affect abortion and totally won’t affect gay marriage, sodomy, or contraception. I yearn to hear his/her enlightened words of the golden middle now…
They can take their “middle” ground and ram it up their ass. Right down the middle.

A 5-4 one - one of Trump’s justices is a hypocritical cheat whichever way you look at it. But that would still be enough.

You mention contraception, so I have to ask: was contraception banned in the US before a supreme court decision or what is it all about?

Before the 1965 ruling, 26 states had outright banned unmarried women from purchasing contraceptives, and several other states restricted or banned specific forms. And almost no insurance company at the time would cover contraceptive or preventative care.
