Wicked Witch Of The West


Wicked witch of the west is now trending on Twitter and you might be wondering why and who it is about. The story behind this trend is quiet fascinating and Gothic. Wicked wich of the west as you mihgt now is a fictional character from the children's book. The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. Sam A. Milazzo's review of L. Frank Baum's the Wonderful Wizard of Oz, available on Amazon has a write-up about it by Sam A. Milazzo and when writing about the book he says that Ronald Reagan's wicked witch of the west was Nancy Reagan. The commentator describes it like this 'Barry Moser has the Wizard of Oz modelled after (then) Precident Ronald Reagan and the his wife - Nancy Reagan - as teh model for the Wicked Witch of the West'. There you have it now you know the truth behind the trend.
