IIRC, he said the last year and a half or so, he (Haig) and Daddy Bush were running the show. Reagan was just saying (and signing) whatever he was told to. "He had become forgetful and terribly confused at times. We had to be careful to keep the press from getting wind of it."
Of course my father once told me that Reagans Alzheimers actually set in, ".....some time back in the '50s."

I think Haig was penalised for being in charge or being too uppity after Reagan was shot.
