Must be just a coincdence, like how Reagan had nothing whatsoever to do with the collapse of the Soviet Union.

Reagan was partly repsonsible for exposing the Soviet Union as a failing empire, but there were numerous other factors that had nothing to do with him. They were doing a good enough job screwing themsleves over by wasting reources Afghanistan and mismanaging their own economy.

Although Reagan did support bin Laden in Afghansitan to weaken the Russians, so we should probably give him credit there. As well as the rise of Saddam Hussein.
