Reagan for Trump: Meese leads 240 Reaganites to Team Trump
By Paul Bedard (@SecretsBedard) • 10/29/16 3:16 PM
Edwin Meese, the keeper of the Reagan flame, is leading an army of 240 Reagan alumni to Republican Donald Trump's presidential campaign as it heads into the final week before Election Day.
The long-time Reagan ally and former attorney general said in a statement, "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. 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."
He added, '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."
Other notables of the Reagan Alumni Advisory Council are former Oklahoma Governor Frank Keating, who served as Reagan's assistant secretary for enforcement in the Treasury Department, U.S. Attorney, and later as associate attorney general, and Faith Whittlesey, who served in the Reagan White House as assistant to the president for public liaison and twice as his Ambassador to Switzerland.
