In a series of tweets beginning early Monday morning, conservative author Michael Reagan renounced his support for Donald Trump’s candidacy and said that neither Nancy nor Ronald Reagan would have supported the Republican nominee.

Reagan, the son of the former President and his first wife, Jane Wyman, has recently criticized Trump in his columns. On Thursday, he wrote that Trump “doesn’t know when it’s time to just shut up” in response to the GOP nominee’s targeting of former Miss Universe Alicia Machado and his clumsy handling of a birtherism question at the first presidential debate.

Reagan’s tweets began as a response to Trump making the bizarre claim Saturday at a campaign rally in Manheim, Pennsylvania that Hillary Clinton had been unfaithful in her marriage.

  1. Hillary “cheating on Bill” is a bridge too far for him? Where the hell has this asshole been for the past year?

  2. Good for Michael Reagan. He should vote for Clinton too.

  3. I am glad my father is not alive to watch this…

    For once I’m not, he deserves to see his legacy. Who knows, maybe hell gets cable news and he can watch while he rots.

  4. Its time for Priebus to take a stand…Trump on Clinton: ‘I don’t even think she’s loyal to Bill’ http://politi.co/2cKeCxR

    What on Earth do you think Priebus has been doing? He took a stand months ago. Whatever Trump wants is his stand. Sorry you haven’t figured that out yet.

    How do you get a column and not know the difference between “infer” and “imply?”
