From: "Gary Britt" 

I'll give you that the predecessors fighting of the cold war, Korea, Viet
Nam was a part of bringing down the Soviet Union, but they didn't face the
pervasive liberal drum beat of the nuclear freezers and the liberal media
pushing for same that Ronnie had to contend with nor did they have to
contend with a Soviet Union so desperate to hang on they were willing to
invade Afghanistan for its territory/land/access to a warm water port, etc.

If Ronnie had followed the liberal line of nuclear freeze the Soviet Union
would still be alive and well today.
