No, it’s because she thinks she can scoop up some moderate Republican voters in the general election if Trump is the nominee. This is nothing more than dishonest, cynical pandering. Wait, that’s not true. It is something more. It's a flat-out, bald-faced lie.

There have gotta be about 978974654654654 ways to avoid “speaking ill of the dead” that don’t also posit the motherfucking Reagans as thought leaders on the AIDS epidemic. Gimme a break.

She literally could have talked about anything else though. Even D.A.R.E., which was an epic joke, certainly started the conversation about drugs much younger and made it a community issue not just a parental issue. Or you know, just being a nice lady or whatever. People can still pick apart that but at least it has…

Wow. You are seriously defending this? There are a MILLION things she could have said about Reagan that are true. ‘Strong first lady, amazing courage during her husband’s assassination attempt’ and she went for this. How do you think you are progressive and spout this kind of stuff?

Has HRC ever done anything wrong in…

The slash literally no one wanted.

“Runway plaid” brings some good results.

I image googled “plaid gown” and found this lovely young lady

Until I saw that picture I’d forgotten the Quayles existed. It can’t be unseen.

Yeah, but notice that Queen B actually MATCHED her eyeliner to that skirt color!!!!! Rock those late ‘80s, Beatrix!!!!

I would for reals wear Betty Ford’s polka dot dress. ADORBZ.

the other one is ladybird, right? her fabric looks like the rim of a very bad china pattern, but alls over her. eeesh.

right? it’s like flamenco meets dynasty.

Not sure if it’s apocryphal (pretty sure it’s on the White House tapes?), but I’ve always had a strange admiration for the fact that Richard Nixon said about her: “that woman knows how to hate.”

I remember when the Gorbachev’s visited, Mrs. Gorbachev wore a beautiful cloth coat. Barbara looked her up and down and asked, “I thought you Russians wore fur coats?” Mrs. Gorbachev responded that they do in Russia but that she had read that some Americans didn’t like fur and she wanted to make a good impression.…

GURL... is that from the Balmain X H&M collaboration?!

This is AMAZE-BALLS

I like both Pat Nixon’s and Rosalind Carter’s looks in that picture. Although it is hard to tell what season it might be. But if I saw a lady Pat Nixon’s age in that outfit in the late spring or early summer, I’d probably be impressed.

Yes, I spaced on Ford. The lady on the far left is Ladybird Johnson though. I looked Pat Nixon up after my gaffe and she died in ‘93 so wasn’t in the photo.

um, Ladybird is showing ANKLE, thank you very much. Fuck all y’all and y’all’s hidden calves.

I’d make changes, but I don’t hate the plaid or Pat Nixon’s polka dots.
