He didn’t govern. He performed. Ronald Reagan wasn’t just America’s 40th president — he was its most dangerous leading man. In REAGAN: The Actor Who Played President, JJ peels back the smile, the flag, and the fog to reveal the system beneath the script. From Hollywood nobody to union snitch, from Cold War cowboy to corporate prophet, Reagan didn’t just lead the country — he taught it how to forget what it used to be. This is not a hit piece. It’s not a love letter. It’s the untold biography of the man who gave the machine a face — and taught it how to lie with style. For anyone ready to stop worshiping nostalgia and start naming the damage — this is your field manual.

I really enjoyed this audiobook as I’ve never dug into the history of Reagan. I always grew up hearing adults around me say “he was a great president”, but this book uncovers quite a bit of what I don’t remember being covered on the news. A great quick listen if you’re wanting to learn about this piece of history!
