Of course, they are to blame for their own failure as well. It wasn’t like a murder were there is one murderer. There are a great number of factors involved. Some key events transpired during Reagan’s watch and he was actively engaged in making them happen. Let’s not strip that away from him in the desire to rewrite history according to a partisan narrative.

Oh, I wasn’t trying to diminish any President’s accomplishments. I just don’t see the collapse of the Soviet Union as a partisan issue. I see it as an American victory.
