Reagan and the Unfolding Iran-Contra Deals
- Share via
Can it be just coincidence that President Reagan’s career-ending slump began when Donald Regan replaced James Baker as the White House chief of staff?
Since Regan succeeded Baker, we’ve been treated to the following spectacles: Bitburg, the Nicholas Daniloff swap that wasn’t a swap, the Iceland summit that wasn’t a summit, the Libyan “disinformation” fiasco, the Eugene Hasenfus fuss, and, finally, Irangate.
Perhaps it’s time to retire the Ronald and Donald Show.
