Grifter or Gipper?

Is Trump a grifter? Was Ronald Reagan a Gipper? According to the dictionary, a grifter is basically a conman. The term “Gipper” came from Ronald Reagan’s short-term acting career when he plays a football star from the 1920’s. So far into Trump's presidency, there's been more mischief and golf than actual change. Although Ronald Reagan wasn't the coolest of presidents, the scandals under his control were less scandalous. In this article,  Reagan was the Gipper. Trump is the grifter., written by Max Boot, he evaluates some of the problems under Ragans control and some under Trump's circus ring. I think the writer did a good job of assessing issues they've both experienced under their administration. Max Boot is arguing claims that president Donald Trump is actually better than Ronald Reagan. Boot says in the beginning of the article that supporters believed that Trump “was the second coming of Ronald Reagan” but after he was elected, supporters think he became better. Boot analyzes the circumstances under which Reagan was elected and how he handled those situations versus how president Trump has assessed those same problems under his control. I think this article is a good indicator that a majority of Trump supporters don’t do research. The research Boot inquires conveys the truth that under the circumstances, Trump is clearly less capable of making a greater change than Ronald Reagan. For example, Boot writes a list of problems Trump has touched on, such as building a wall, but has yet to actually accomplish. I think Boot does a good job of proving the point that Donald Trump is no better than Ronald Reagan.
