1) Funny how the "protectors" and "stewards" of both a legacy and a company lose touch with the real McCoy within a decade.
2) The Ford Foundation & the Rockefeller Foundation as as out of touch with the values that made them their fortunes as anyone could imagine.

3) John D. Rockefeller, for example, was a Bible-believing Baptist. He would utterly reject any of his money going to institutions and organizations that deny the Bible, seek population control, or support abortion.
Rocky was tough. He'd go out with a sledge hammer himself.

4) So while it is sad, it is entirely predictable that the Reagan Foundation has asked the Trump campaign and the RNC not to invoke the Gipper's name.
5) This despite the fact that Michael Reagan, the only surviving conservative Reagan, is a strong Trump supporter.

6) The Reagan Foundation obviously is clueless about who Ronald Reagan really was. You think Trump is brusque or rude?
I remember a fighting Ronald Reagan saying "Mr. Green I PAID FOR THAT MICROPHONE." (He got Mr. Breen's name wrong, but got the situation right!)

7) The Reagan Foundation apparently never met the anti-communist union leader who almost single handedly battled the thug commies in SAG.
8) Nor do they remember, apparently, that the commies in SAG threatened to throw acid in his face.

9) The Foundation is clueless about the real Ronald Reagan, who for the manners and morays of his time was every bit the fighter and confrontational speaker Donald Trump is.
10) It was Dutch who, despite his OWN speechwriters taking out the "Tear down this wall" line . . .

10) contd . . . not once, not twice, but THREE TIMES from his speech continued to write it back in.
11) It was the Ronald Reagan I wrote about who completely cut off support for a congressman who dissed him publicly.
12) The Ronald Reagan I wrote about stood toe-to-toe . . .

12) contd . . . with anarchist student "protestors" as Governor of California. Yes, he used humor and logic when he could. But on one occasion, after the "discussion" went nowhere with his douchenozzle guests, he threw them out of his office.
13) "Nothing I can say would create an open mind in you," he said as he had them escorted out.
14) The Reagan Foundation must have missed the part where Reagan, like Trump, said "Lawlessness by the mob will not be tolerated."

15) The Reagan Foundation apparently forgot that when campaigning for Governor of California, protesters had sealed off the front of an auditorium. Reagan arrived with some of his Hollywood friends. These were tough guys like William Holden, and they were not going to be . . .
15) contd . . . chased off by a mob. They barged right through.
16) Perhaps the Reagan Foundation forgot that the Gipper's speeches were routinely described by the Hoax News as "dark" and "divisive," you know---the same garbage they pull with Trump today.

17) Obviously the Reagan Foundation doesn't recognize the strong similarities in Trump and Reagan when dealing with adversaries. Dutch called the USSR the "evil empire," but personally got along with Gorbachev, the same way Trump will warn Little Rocket Man with one breath . . .
17) contd . . . but praise him with the next.
18) In short, the Reagan Foundation has now apparently turned into the Ford Foundation.
19) The man who made them would shake his head, make an excuse for them ("they don't know what they are doing") and move on.

20) But he would never give them another penny for treating Donald Trump, the 21st century Reagan, so poorly.
