So, Im wondering, if big governemnt is strictly a product of the left..., how does the raptard reconcilethis notion with the massive expansion of Government that happened under Reagan and Dubya.
Surely he isn't so far gone as to insist that they were libruls, can he?
Does he pretend they didn't happen? probably. That's just his speed of stupid.

Reagan, the greatest President this nation has seen in well over 100 years, defeated the Soviet Union, while reviving the US economy from the doldrums of Jimmy Carter's economic malaise.
W was a big govt Republican.

How did he "revive" the economy? By tripling the national debt and massively expanding the size of the government, that's how! He was the original big-government Republican.

Can we allow that that bit was a LOT more complex than you insinuate?

He'll be back asserting that authoritarian/fascist governments are exclusively left-wing, within a month or two. Watch this space.
Oh, and the title? Saw the title, saw the poster, nearly choked on my coffee. What a hoot! So rappy outed hisself.
Say it loud, say it proud, son.

No, they weren't. That's the great misconception that is pushed by , gee, I wonder who? But it's completely false.
The simplest explanation is: Nazis were both extreme left-wing and extreme right-wing, in a compartmentalized way.
On the extreme left-wing side, the reason why they identified themselves as socialist, they had social programs for members of the elite Nazi party run by an authoritarian government. They had health care, built roads, regulated businesses for the state, and there were various benefits for being a loyal Nazi.
All it took was riding on the back of declaring some people subhumans and forcing them into labour camps for fun and profit and a little murder. In return Germans pledged themselves for the greater improvement of the state - Collectivism above individuals, in other words.
But on the right-wing side, within the Nazi party was a form of social darwinism (the master race) and meritocracy, just short of condoning klingon promotion schemes (kill your boss and take his place). The Nazi system was all very individualistic and self-serving (apart from the government granted benefits), and Hitler's best buddies were corporate executives who got exclusive Nazi Germany contracts for building up Germany's war machine. He outlawed workers strikes because it hurt manufacturing. He believed in private enterprise and gave many public services over to private businesses, consolidating power into monopolies, all right-wing ideas, and balanced that by increasing state control, a left-wing idea.
He was militaristic, and thought the inability of the poor and the non-white Aryan types to succeed was a fault of some inherent problem, and thought the German people were divinely chosen to be the next Holy Roman Empire (The Indiana Jones movies had Hitler hunting down Christian artifacts because Hitler believed that would give his soldiers an edge in combat - that actually wasn't made up).
Hitler made a big deal about how his ideology spanned the bridge between fascism and socialism. But he tended to dislike any socialists who weren't also fascists like him.
So like I said - Nazis were both. That was basically the whole point for them, they thought they'd get a new system of government that worked better than anything else in the past. And it utterly failed in part because many of the ideas are really incompatible - an unholy matrimony of the worst of both worlds wrapped up in an abusive authoritarian wrapper.

Observe this fitting analogy. All shall become clear.

No, not really. That accurately describes the conclusion of Reagan's view, to topple the Soviet Govt, and revive the US economy. Which both were accomplished.
