      He was actually a pretty good president too. Unfortunately the seeds of the cancer that is the current Republican party has been sown by the Nixon administration before he was elected and had begun to bear fruit when Reagan ran against him.

        I like to say he was the best man ever to be President and that he had great policies, but that he was not an effective President.

        He was too honest to play the game.

          What does that say about our society? Can you imagine taking the same attitude as a scientist? Nothing would ever work because it relies on foundational truth and integrity. The reason lying in politics is acceptable is because the citizenry is allowing it through the ballot box. These idiots can’t do science or politics but they have the same voting rights as everyone else.

            Lying works because our schools don’t teach critical thinking anymore. They are so obsessed with rote, bullshit memorization that there isn’t any room or time left for critical thinking

        Yeah, the Republican party had a strong progressive wing before Nixon. Lincoln, Teddy, and Eisenhower were all progressives by modern standards.

        Ronald Reagan prolonged the Iran hostage crisis and then resolved it by selling weapons to Iran - which was illegal. Its a great tragedy that Ronald Reagan wasn’t prosecuted for treason.

            That’s incorrect. Mojaheds were a group of Muslim-Socialist democratic parties. The only thing in common between them is using weapons.

            Unless you call everybody US armed Mojaheds.

        The creation of Israel, and the US aided Iranian coup of 1953 both happened a couple decades before Carter.

        Those seeds were planted and had been growing for a while.

      Jimmy Carter would never give Trump the middle finger. He’s too classy.

      He’s the sort of man who stands for something he believes in and leaves it at that. He was the Fred Rogers of politicians.

      I can feel your loss. Losing your soulmate is devastating. My best advice I can give you is to seek help and talk, either a professional or a friend. Suicide should never be a solution and I‘m sure that your wife wouldn‘t want you to leave this earth when we don‘t know whats on the other side.

      Edit: Also, we need you to kick Donnys or MAGAa ass again in four years

        I think he’s waiting for 2028… which would really be pushing it for Jimmy, since a fascist dictatorship that no longer holds elections might be in charge.

        If that’s the case, I wish him the best of luck in 2032.
