The 240 Reagan Alumni Are Supporting Donald Trump
As the 2016 presidential election enters the home stretch, Donald Trump is gaining support from a group of people that have — up to now — stayed silent: members of Ronald Reagan’s administration. Throughout the campaign, many Republicans have been on the sidelines, and some have openly gone over to Hillary Clinton’s team. The weekend’s announcement by the Trump campaign could go a long way toward convincing on-the-fence conservatives to vote for the Trump-Pence ticket on Nov. 8.
The list of alumni is headlined by former U.S. Attorney General Ed Meese III.
“Many of us remember 1980, a time when, as today, America suffered from high unemployment and even higher interest rates, a military that needed to be strengthened and rebuilt, and diminished stature in the world of nations,” said Meese, per DonaldJTrump.com.
“Ronald Reagan turned that around with resolute policies, such as the most significant tax cut in American history, which stimulated the national economy and created 20 million jobs, and a visionary foreign policy of ‘peace through strength,’ whereby he rebuilt our military and won the Cold War without firing a shot.”
Meese continued, “We need a Trump-Pence Administration to change the direction of our country. We all know that Hillary Clinton will continue Obama’s failed policies, growing the size, scope and cost of the federal government, and endangering our national security.”

With narrowing polls, and Hillary Clinton’s renewed legal troubles, this endorsement list may be just what Trump needs to get wavering conservatives to pull the ballot for him. (For more from the author of “The 240 Reagan Alumni Are Supporting Donald Trump” please click HERE)
