Former President Donald Trump mocked former President Jimmy Carter one day after it was confirmed former first lady Rosalynn Carter entered hospice care.
I think it’s far worse than this. I don’t think there’s anything in the world that could bring him happiness. His pathology will not allow for it.
You know the way that the love of your family, or love for your family, brings you happiness? Yeah, that doesn’t work for him. His parents fucked him up real good.
Next campaign speech: "President Carter's wife... Rosalynn. She died, folks. She died. I never liked her! I like first ladies that don't die like my wife Melania."
What’s wonderful is that the next few days are going to be full of coverage of the scandal-free Carter presidency, Carter marriage, and Carter family.
Unfortunately, I expect it to be full of coverage of Trump shitting all over Carter's presidency, marriage, and family. Trump has never passed up the opportunity to get one last kick in on someone who's literally on their death bed.
Republicans played with the lives of hostages for political gain. They prolonged the Vietnam war for political gain. They are almost always on the wrong side of history.
It's a party of hatred. When he got elected after mocking that camera man for having a disability, it should have been clear for everyone what the republican party stood for.
As the parent of a special needs child I was completely aghast about that. Doesn't even make sense because they want people to "pull their own weight" (which is just what that person was doing)!
Conservatives delight in the suffering and misery of others. This is simply who they are at their core. It is not a trait they can change. They can supress the public expression of this trait when it serves them, but deep inside, they thrive on the knowledge that a vulnerable person is suffering.
Be cautious in your dealings with conservatives. They do not value the lives of people or animals the way a normal person does.
Stuff like this is why I consider republicans to be worthless filth.
Trump, criticizing Biden at a rally in Fort Dodge, Iowa, told a crowd of supporters that “the happiest person anywhere in this country right now is Jimmy Carter because his administration looked brilliant compared to these clowns.”
“Compared to Biden, Jimmy Carter was a brilliant, brilliant president,” Trump said.
Which is really interesting since Jimmy Carter's presidency was one of the most competent we've had in history. The only reason anybody shits on it is because of the smear job the republicans and the Reagan campaign did on it.
I think the failed hostage rescue really fucked him up. And also the “malaise” speech — an indictment on the American people for not heeding the warning of a wise and prescient man.
For Canadians it's basically been a never ending reality show since 2001. Very entertaining material, you keep thinking they can't top last season but then they do.
I mean, it wasn't about his wife. Trump probably didn't even know she died. Besides, he was making fun of Biden in that quote, not Carter, and certainly not Carter's wife.
Okay. I don't see what's wrong with that. I find it hard to believe trump targeted him because of his wife's condition, and I don't see why having a sick wife should make you not valid for your regularly scheduled trump insults.

If I said, "compared to a slug, you're a genius," I'm not calling you a genius.
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.
