President Jimmy Carter is dead at 100 years of age. While I strongly disagreed with him philosophically and politically, I also realized that he truly loved and respected our Country, and all it stands for. He worked hard to make America a better place, and for that I give him my highest respect. He was a truly good man and, of course, will be greatly missed. He was also very consequential, far more than most Presidents, after he left the Oval Office. Warmest condolences from Melania and I to his wonderful family!

Either the people with an ounce of compassion write all your messages or they don't write any cause it's clear as day, your third grade yelling in tweets and messages is not in this message at all.

After 10 years we have a feel for the voice of Trump and this ain't it. Everything is your message was true but, this is nothing you would ever compose, in your best moments

He has a very good brain, he should remember what he said. Person, man, woman, camera, t.v.

A young, weekend replacement "reporter" on NBC was reading off the bullet points of the CARTER career and presidency, and clearly didn't know the content and at one point noted he wasn't born back then. But what was irritating was whoever wrote it threw in "balancing" downsides, and the reader said, "He now joins the exclusive club of one-term presidents" naming BIDEN and CARTER, not Poppy BUSH.

This creature is an elitist, egomaniacal golf-playing dauphin and dotard, born with a silver spoon up his bazooka who never worked a day in his life and owes his fortune to father Fred.





Q: And how many days did Trumpf play golf during his last "Reign of Error" in the White House?

A: 308. The USSS spent at least $550,000 in third-party golf cart rentals and over $500,000 to stay overnight at Trump-owned properties, including his NJ country club.

33. Actually only One President in US History...
Mon Dec 30, 2024, 12:24 AM
Dec 2024

Has been impeached twice (taking up 50% of all impeachments of US Presidents)

Has driven up the national debt 25% in his first term

Has ordered an attack on the US Capitol

Has participated in a fake electors scheme

Has pressured a secretary of state to "find votes" for him

Has been convicted by a jury of his peers of 34 felony counts and enters office as a convicted felon.

So it's not an elite club he belongs to, he is in a category all by himself.
