Saagar, one day I would like to hear how you thought Reagan "saved" the country! (Or was that sarcastic?) Because the way I look at it, Reagan kicked off the downfall, domestically, of the US...Sincerely, I would like to hear this viewpoint.

[latriciacagle]

As someone who lived three decades in the pre-Reagan years I can say Reagan was one of the worst things that happened to the middle class.

[marleneg]

We lost our 3rd generation family farm smack dab in the middle of Regans glorious years. My dad has still not recovered.
Maybe the coked out Wall Street crowd flourished but a lot of us suffered at his administration's hand.

[mrgabest]

Reagan began the shift towards extreme wealth disparity that Saagar pretends to disapprove of. I'd love to hear which, if any, of Reagan's policies Saagar would care to defend publicly.

[alexandernewell]

Ben Sasse sounds like Bob Belcher.

Edit: Reagan saved the country?? Is that a joke? Honestly the last thing I expected to hear out of Saagar's mouth.

Saager acts like Trump wasn’t a life long con man. Saager got conned and he blames it on the people around trump like Trump isn’t ultimately their boss

[hailmaryrecordings]

Tax-cuts during wartime for the very few people actually *profiting* from these wars, is criminal.

[ericsmith]

Wait you think Ronald Regan saved the country. I nearly throw up in my mouth when he said that

[interesting]

He did the Foxconn deal but he only focused of the 'con' part of it.

[rmcf]

"Ronald Reagan came and saved the country" - clown

[Sethsters]

So basically what you’re saying is Trump was a con man all this time?

Shocked... shocked, I tell you 🙄

[kristiano.]

We're still dealing with the effects and influence of reagonomics. He didn't save us Saagar.

[sudevsen]

So wrong, the lowest momemt in Trump's rule was when he wanted to nuke a hurricane and then FAILED TO DELIVER!

[johnphillipdavis]

I opted to not vote for him because in 4 years I was not presented with affordable basic health care. do that first.

[justthinking]

Spit take: Regan came along and saved the country in 1980s. REALLY?!?

[mattb]

“Pinnacle of Paul Ryan’s life”. Haha, that might be the funniest political line I’ve ever heard.

[jukejones]

I grew up in NYC. Coming up i always saw trump as a clown and con man. Shocked when people voted for this dude. Now everybody suprised the country is on fire...

[sepehrdaghbandan]

"We live in a reactionary country and that would be a good thing!", saying the quite part out loud Saagar!

[rossplendent]

13:20 Did Saagar actually say "Ronald Reagan saved the country"? How can anyone take this guy seriously??

He claims to be an "economic populist, " and rails against people who put culture over economic issues, yet he somehow admires the father of neoliberalism???
