    I mean the first lady tends to become a major player in politics when the president is incapacitated. It happened to FDR and it happened to Biden. Now it’s happening to Trump.

      Nancy was effectively president for Reagan’s second term. People were mad about Biden, but they also hid how far gone Reagan was. FDR, too.
