    For more edification there’s also Leeja Miller’s take on Reagan ( on YouTube )

    There’s plenty of intersection with the listed issues, but yes Reagan was also the first of the GOP manchurian candidates meant to accellerate the cold war to move the US further towards authoritarianism and white Christian nationalism. (Look up Peaceful Coexistence or Мирное сосуществование) which Nixon brought back from China and we were considering to ease cold-war tensions. But Reagan was also a Christian eschatologist, and wanted to see the apocalypse during his presidency.
