Trump, who has often hailed Reagan as his favorite president to serve in his lifetime, shared a similar picture early last year featuring a personal note from the former Republican president to Trump, then a New York City real estate mogul. {mosads}

Tuesday would mark Reagan’s 107th birthday. The former president died in June 2004 after a decadelong battle with Alzheimer’s disease.
Trump has long touted his appreciation for the former president, and after Congress passed a sweeping tax bill in December, Republicans hailed it as the largest tax overhaul since the the Reagan tax cuts of the 1980s.
