President Donald Trump slammed the Ronald Reagan Foundation on Sunday afternoon in response to a report late Saturday that his campaign has been warned to stop using the image of the late president to raise money for Trump’s re-election effort.
“The Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation and Institute, which runs the 40th president’s library near Los Angeles, has demanded that President Trump and the Republican National Committee (RNC) quit raising campaign money by using Ronald Reagan’s name and likeness,” columnist Karen Tumulty reported Saturday.
The ultimatum triggered the president’s ire, ranting that the foundation now appears to be run by the Washington Post — a frequent target of Trump’s rage.
Trump, who also took shots at former Rep. Paul Ryan (R) and Fox News in his tweet, complained that “the Washington Post is running the Reagan Foundation, and RINO Paul Ryan is on the Board of Fox, which has been terrible. We will win anyway, even with the phony @FoxNews suppression polls (which have been seriously wrong for 5 years)!”
