No Reagan

Five Thirty Eight: Donald Trump Is No Ronald Reagan By Harry Enten
The main reason Reagan came back to beat President Jimmy Carter in 1980 was that Carter was very unpopular.

This year, the opposite is happening. Obama’s approval rating, 53 percent according to Gallup, is the highest it has been in more than two years.

Also, Reagan committed treason by dealing with the Iranian's back then behind Carter's back. He made a deal with them for weapons etc. and they released the hostages 5 mins. after he took the oath of office. That deal cost Carter the election. Nixon did a similar deal behind Johnson's back in 1968.
