Unless its supposed to be about him being Governor of CA, I think it's BS.
Problem is, I was alive back then. Deinstitutionalization was a done deal before Reagan ever stepped foot in the White House. Is this some sort of fantasy about what would have happened had Reagan won the '68 primary - then he might have been in office early enough to be more involved federally.
The formal process started with Kennedy in '61 and was nearly complete by the end of the 70s.
I will look more into it thanks for the info - it’s worth looking at because without mental hospitals it appears that the mental patients have not only rejoined society but have taken it over
This is what happens when you eliminate mental institutions and let the crazies run free.
Reminder: Reagan did that unfortunately
I've seen this claim before.

Prisons are also the new mental institutions, sadly.
Did he do it after he was shot or before? Asking for a fren.
