Nah. Ronald Reagan was a democrat,
He left the party in his 40's.
and pro-choicer
He signed an abortion bill as governor that he later said was one of the biggest mistakes of his life. He was not a "pro choicer" stop lying.
for more than half his life.
He lived 93 years so no...he wasn't all of that "half of his life." Another falsehood.
It's what helped make him so good at being a Republican. 
What made Reagan a great Republican was he believed in Conservatism. He'd seed the seeds of Communism being sown in Hollywood and was repulsed by it. He spent years going on speaking tours...writing Op-Eds engaging in the politics of the party...for DECADES before he became President.
Ronald Reagan didn't just wake up at age 69 and decide he was a Republican and thought he should run for President as a Republican. From his 40's until his death he lived and breathed Conservatism. He shaped the movement...he helped it grow and he supported it even when everyone else was writing it's obituary...and he reaped the benefits of those decades of dedication by recording the two biggest Presidential victories in the history of the country.
So no the crap you posted above is not what what made Reagan a "good republican". It wasn't an act for him. It was in his DNA. And that is something you and the rest of the Trump worshipers will never ever understand.
Trump isn't worthy of shining Reagan's riding boots.
