I'm Surprised It Took This Long

President Reagan gets some well-deserved recognition:
(AP) — The U.S. Embassy in Berlin unveiled a statue of Ronald Reagan on Friday at a site overlooking the location of the former president’s iconic speech imploring the Soviet Union to remove the Berlin Wall.

Secretary of State Mike Pompeo called the inauguration of the work a “monumental moment” before helping remove the cover from the larger-than-life statue on the Embassy’s terrace, at eye-level with the top of the landmark Brandenburg Gate.

Saturday marks the 30th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall....
Too bad it's only at our embassy and not at the actual site, especially since the current German Chancellor is from the former East Germany.

I loved President Reagan for his conservative ideals.  President Trump, no Reagan he, is succeeding at conservative actions.  I'm privileged to have lived in such times.
