Reagan Was Right -- And America Needs to Wake Up

But Ronald Reagan knew how wrong that was, and how wrong it would always be.

As he said, 40 years ago: “It is better to be here ready to protect the peace, than to take blind shelter across the sea, rushing to respond only after freedom is lost. We’ve learned that isolationism never was and never will be an acceptable response to tyrannical governments with an expansionist intent.”

Biden did fine. But these sentiments of Reagan will live forever. Because they are true.
