Former President Donald Trump mocked former President Jimmy Carter one day after it was confirmed former first lady Rosalynn Carter entered hospice care.
I’m not sure if you are aware of this, but Republicans have been denigrating and bashing on Jimmy Carter for decades. Mostly because there were problems with the economy at the time that caused oil prices to skyrocket. He was an otherwise effective and capable leader, but he was always the butt of every Republican joke for years… “at least X isn’t as bad as Carter!” they would say. So to compare Carter to Biden and say he looked brilliant compared to him is a backhanded insult. Not even thinly veiled at this point. He’s insulting two presidents at once.

Well, they bash because that’s what they do. Like a puppy peeing on the rug.
Oil prices spiking were a bonanza for oil profits in reality. They just used them as a cudgel.
