Why would the library, devoted to a man who was a movie star, California governor and a popular president, draw criticism from a Republican presidential candidate? The answer may lie in the differences in the personalities of the two conservative politicians. Nearly 40% of Republicans and Republican-leaning independents said Reagan had done the best job as president over the past 40 years. About 37% said Trump has done the best job, according to the Pew Research report conducted in July.
Kotkin, who interviewed then-Governor Reagan before he was sworn in as president in 1981, said, “People liked Reagan, and even if you were a liberal and you got to know him, you would say ‘well, this is not a bad person’ whereas Trump is considered probably a terrible person.” “Trump opposes the Reagan Library and Reagan because it’s constantly used as a comparison to him,” said Fernando Guerra, director of the Center for the Study of Los Angeles at Loyola Marymount University. “It shows that you could be conservative, you could be a game-changer, without having a personality of being a disruptor as is.”
“I don’t see him investing in California,” Guerra said. “I don’t see him visiting California before the primary, so there’s very little cost to him skipping this debate.”
