Donald Regan on Ronald Reagan
← Back to Ronald Reagan ProfileDonald Regan, Reagan's Chief of Staff, expressed immense frustration in his memoir over the administration's reliance on astrological advice when managing the President's schedule.
“The frustration of dealing with a situation in which the schedule of the President of the United States was determined by occult prognostications was very great — far greater than any other I had known in nearly forty-five years of working life.”
“Virtually every major move and decision the Reagans made during my time as White House Chief of Staff was cleared in advance with a woman in San Francisco who drew up horoscopes to make certain that the planets were in a favorable alignment for the enterprise.”
