Reagan a one-time communist ? I don't think so, he was a major instigator in the attempts to expel Jewish writers and actors and producers from Hollywood from the mid-forties- remember the Hollywood Ten. And he was right up there in full support of McCarthy.
Ah, you're being sarcastic ? Facetious ? Satirical ? Ironic ? Sorry, it's wasted on a half-wit like me.
But while we're on the topic, if we imagine a Right-wing spectrum 50 % to one side of the ideological mix, then Reagan would have been up there in the 90+ % band. McCarthy, I think, was just an opportunist, but certainly part of the Right and using it to promote himself, perhaps to President. Of course, he had a strong rival in Gen. McArthur at that time until Truman sacked him.
Cheers,
Joe
