Ronald Reagan actually said...

"I assure you that the Administration will not relax one bit in our continued pursuit of spending cuts."

"I will—without reservation—do what has to be done to control spending."

"By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and statutes of the United States of America, and to terminate the establishing authorities for committees that are inactive or no longer..."

"This tax bill is not, as it has so often been mislabeled, the biggest tax increase in history."
