Isn't the 1980s mostly Reagan whom we and democrats alike quite hated for nearly everything?

The Democrats didn't hate Reagan enough to not continue with his neoliberal policies once they got back into office in 1992. In fact, the neoliberal era really started in the late 70s when the Democrat Jimmy Carter was in office.
