This is doubly hilarious because many conservatives are all in favor of the "fair tax" plan which relies on a sales tax for much of its revenue. The VAT is just a sales tax on steroids.

As a California Old, I remember more Ronnie that you whippersnappers do. We had his face on TV for eight years as governor (before he declined to run for a third term which was doable then) before we got that face on TV for eight more as President. (Then there was the General Electric Theater well before that.) Thing was, he was an actor, and he had a pleasant voice, and he knew how to not sound like an ass with a whiny Canadian accent, and that's just one of the ways Cruz is not Reagan. There is probably a point to this, but we can't all be California Olds.
