The smiling meme has been shared on Facebook hundreds of times. It looks like the quintessential Reagan: smiling after giving a speech with American flags in the background.
The meme quotes the president from 1987, “Keep voting Democrat ... One day they will restrict your freedoms, restrict your history and restrict your safety. All in the name of professional victims that don’t understand the consequences of their ignorance.”
There are two problems with this. One, a version of the meme spells the president’s name Regan; not a good start. Two, Reagan never said these words.
