Nancy was not the first “First Lady” to hide her husband’s condition and take control of things for him. There is actually a long list starting with Mary Todd Lincoln :). Not really but there are others.

I’ve said it before and I’m going to say it again so long as this arc lasts. This strip is in abominable bad taste. I’m nobody’s idea of a Reagan fan, but resurrecting strips that satirize the way the man died is sick. There’s no excuse for inflicting pain on his family this way. Shame on you, Garry Trudeau!
