Ronald Reagan was at least a decent enough man that if he knew for certain that this was the direction things would go in, he'd have backpedaled on some of his policies so hard that he'd have left skid marks.
EDIT: And possibly even gone and cleaned house on the GOP.
To be honest, I see how his administration responded to the AIDS epidemic and doubt it.
“We can never undo what we have done. We can never go back in time. We write history with our decisions and our actions. But we also write history with our responses to those actions. We can leave the pain and the damage in our wake, unattended, or we can do the work of acknowledging and fixing, to whatever extent possible, the harm that we have caused.”
