    Jimmy Carter started the decay of the Democrat Party. Harris/Biden official ends the peak r****dation of the Democrat party. It will be a tough decade, but we should see a more moderate leaning government going forward. It will become increasingly easier to vote for either side as all these r****ded boomers in office start dying off.

    RIP. I'm sure he meant well. His policies were bad.

    Carter was literally a center right president. He didn't believe in deficit spending and tried pushing balanced budget every year. It was Carter that started the deregulation that Regan took credit for.

    Quite of few of y'all have no shame, man's body not even cold yet and already hurling insults. He may have not been a great president but he was a great man. To former President Carter RIP...

    judge that by his actions; just like every POTUS after Warren G Harding, his admin spent more $ than his predecessor

    No, he was not a bad guy. He was just a terrible leader.

    This is a random internet forum, not his funeral. Spare us your moral grandstanding.

    Carter will be known for bringing the mullahs to power in Iran. What an awful, dipshit.

    Regan made a deal with the Iranians to keep Americans as hostages until after the election. The evil leader was Regan yet none of yall have beef for him

    The trumptards in full effect, can't even feign a little common decency.

    Not a great president, but an amazing human being...not that it means anything to the orange cult of ugliness.

    Eff-ing experts rank Jimmy Carter as the 26th best POTUS ... which is slightly below average.

    Reagan copied what then-candidate Nixon did to the sitting POTUS in 1968, LBJ

    Reagan did that when he was a candidate, not as the leader

    I keep forgetting the MAGA cult is a special kind of scum...if he didn't rape women, screw the poor, or was morally bankrupt he ain't about nothing. You wanna go worship orange man, I'm sure there's a thread for that.
