Ugh, crediting Reagan with the liberation of the Eastern Bloc like that is hugely disrespectful to the people from those countries who put themselves on the line to fight for freedom - including Solidarność in Poland itself. Reagan didn't have that much to do with it, especially his 'famous' speech which didn't really have much of an impact at all at the time.
It is a good talking point against Republicans though.
That's assuming Republicans have a moral compass or consistent ideological positions. That's not the case though. It's all just about what benefits them and their donors.
Sure. But a few republican voters might get the message. Republicans were historically the hawkish party, it must be difficult to square the circle that they are now basically the party supporting today's Hitler.
