I know many Blue Boomers and even the odd Blue Xer really hate Reagan.
But you are not going to win hearts and minds this way.
It is defamation of Reagan to liken him to Trump.
In fact I would go as far to say that likening Trump to Reagan makes it seem like The Left are crying wolf about Trump. The logic here would be, well, if Trump is like Reagan, and Lefties are decrying that fact, then ol' Trump is A-OK.
I know that the values-locked, stuck in the 2T and 3T Blue Boomers and certain Xer mini-mes thereof don't get this distinction, but it is very important. You will never win over Reagan Democrats and / or progeny of them with this sort of rhetoric.
That's OK. It is really important to bust the Reagan myth. Totally. He is the source of our national decline. I know Trump takes certain things to new levels. But Reagan is the sourcepoint of most of his policies.
