1. Morbid isn't it?
That's all they have, I guess. A 30 year old ideology "The Reagan Revolution".

5. Oh, I don't know. It isn't often you get a shot at having a picture taken
with a racist, sexist, homophobic anti-working man war criminal sellout.

4. It's time to let go
You know, if they had anything to say about it, they would have had the man freeze dried with a voice box after he died. The obsession with him is sick.

9. Turns out that's his actual corpse.
He was freeze dried, vacuum pressed, and filled with preservatives.

Just like he was when he was still alive.

15. The cutout is more aware of its surroundings than was Reagan during the last years of his presidency
