Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump compared his campaign to that of former President Ronald Reagan in a recent interview, giving his own movement even higher marks.
When asked what historical political movement he thought his own campaign was most similar on Bloomberg’s With All Due Respect show, Trump mentioned Reagan. “Now, Reagan had a little bit of this, but I don’t think to the same extent—but he also won,” Trump said.
