The other downside is being a kid growing up as Reagan is elected, and knowing FULL WELL that he stole the election, screwed Carter, and that it's all been a lie - AND being one of the few people you know who are actually seeing it... and being ridiculed for speaking about it....

Eventually, I just bugged out. I couldn't take it anymore.

Reagan stole it by convincing Tehran to not release the hostages until after the election, yes? Or was there something else?

That’s about the size of it. The hostages got to stay in prison an extra 18 months for that piece of vile skullduggery.
