    How did GOP go from Reagan's party of ideas to Trump's party of alternative facts? I review @benshapiro's latest and find a partial answer: Refusing to accept Obama wasn't a left-wing ideologue. @MaxBoot @RadioFreeTom @JRubinBlogger @EliotACohen @JonahNROhttps://arcdigital.media/ben-shapiro-vs-imaginary-obama-8d3cd903ea41?source=friends_link&sk=451d47b469334abe986b1b8b6618ba5a …

        Obama was a centrist who was heavily criticized by progressives for being centrist but selling himself as a progressive. In a sense, that is a fair criticism. You should probably advertise yourself as what you are. Most of the time, though, he made it clear that he was bipartisan

        In 2008, I thought it was clear Obama was centrist. For example, I liked that he criticized the Iraq war while also pledging to go hard after al Qaeda. Some people blocked out the second part.

        Sorry but to me (I’m 75) the Reagan administration was totally criminal. Reporters need to check him out before praising him.

        Creating an imaginary Obama is a consequence, not cause, of Republicans becoming the party of alternative facts, so doesn't answer the 'how' question at all.

        There’s a straight line from covering for Reagan’s Alzheimer’s to covering for #Trump’s psychopathic behavior. And let’s not forget W’s criminality.

        That's a hood article, but can't you just say Ben Shapiro lied? I mean, Obama promised Russian agents more flexibility in exchange for kind treatment during the election? Shapiro lied.

        Creating an imaginary Reagan here: he was notorious for his reliance on what are now known as "alternative facts."

        I would start by saying they may been perceived as a party of ideas but they weren’t good ideas. Then they progressed from bad ideas to no ideas to just making shit up.

        Great points but GOP drift goes back to 90s. Daft conspiracy theories like those on V. Foster’s suicide were rejected by conservative thinkers but embraced by some of the base & over time, the crazy crap normalized. Didn’t happen with the Dems & their own fringe. No ideas on why.
