  1. >Donald Trump’s public condolences for former President Jimmy Carter, who passed away at the age of 100 on Sunday, sparked an uproar among his own fans.

    >“I just heard of the news about the passing of President Jimmy Carter. Those of us who have been fortunate to have served as President understand this is a very exclusive club, and only we can relate to the enormous responsibility of leading the Greatest Nation in History,” Trump wrote on Truth Social Sunday.

    >“The challenges Jimmy faced as President came at a pivotal time for our country and he did everything in his power to improve the lives of all Americans. For that, we all owe him a debt of gratitude,” Trump wrote. “Melania and I are thinking warmly of the Carter Family and their loved ones during this difficult time. We urge everyone to keep them in their hearts and prayers.”

  2. Imagine pissing off your “base” because you don’t shit on the recently deceased Christian.

  3. But don’t you dare call them deplorable or garbage people!

  4. Well, he didn’t write that. Someone on his PR team did.

  6. >An account called Commieskillpuppies noted that the president-elect’s words wouldn’t have any political value. “I appreciate your graciousness toward him but it won’t win you any points from the leftists,” the user wrote. “They’re soulless.”

    Typical MAGA behavior. They can’t even have a basic shred of human decency and will only promote putting on that mask if they get something in return.

  7. Trump is a keyboard warrior and rally tough. When it’s time to act “decent” and “normal” he does so. He backs down and is a coward. Notice how nice he was to Presidents Obama and Biden when they invited him to the White House. Where were the insults? Takes courage to do it to their face. He’s a fraud.

  9. Since the flag will be at half mast for the inauguration (for Carter)…

    over/under 70% chance he complains or says something inappropriately negative about Carter on or near the inauguration?

    I think over personally.

  10. I remember when people referred to Carter as the worst President in their lifetimes.

    And then we had Dubya and Trump, two of the worst in American history.

  13. They’re all insane pig fucks. And L’il Dumpie didn’t write that tweet. It was too coherent.

  15. Anyone that thinks Trump, himself, had any part in writing that… probably hasn’t paid much attention to how he speaks and writes

  17. What Trump wrote about Carter was so nice and well written, I honestly do not believe Trump wrote it.

  18. t
    There is no doubt that Jimmy absolutely set the standard for how to spend a post-presidency. h
    He didn’t try to make a quick buck. He didn’t hawk autographed bibles. He didn’t slap his name on an endless succession of ever-shoddier trinkets.

    And he didn’t whine about how unfairly he’d been treated, despite having been ratfucked out of the presidency by Reagan campaign operatives.

  19. Jimmy Carter is the literal personification of living according to the teachings of Jesus and being the best of humanity.

    Somehow, a large percentage of so-called Christians hate him for it. We all know why: hate is more powerful than the long hard work of taking care of others and making the world a better place. It also puts these so-called Christians in very direct comparison with a devout Christian who “walked the walk”.

  20. They’re so dumb…Trump didn’t write the post. His aide wrote it.

  21. From the article:
    > “Carter was a terrible president and damaged The United States Of America to such an extent that we are STILL dealing with his horribly policy decisions and his inflation repercussions in 2024.”

    I’d love a follow up question to that statement, “So what policies are those?” Zero chance they can name a single one.

  22. They are mad that Jimmy Carter pardoned draft dodgers…

    But… Elected a draft dodger.

    J.F.C.

  23. > “Jimmy Carter pardoned all the Vietnam draft dodgers that forced other men to take their place! Many of these men did not come home,” the user wrote. “Personally, I think Carter lived a long life to suffer for the pardons to the draft dodgers he pardoned.”

    ummm for most of us its a known historical fact but for you “BREAKING NEWS: Your almighty orange is a vietnam draft dodger.”

  24. I laughed at this paragraph:

    >“Jimmy Carter pardoned all the Vietnam draft dodgers that forced other men to take their place! Many of these men did not come home,” the user wrote. “Personally, I think Carter lived a long life to suffer for the pardons to the draft dodgers he pardoned.”

    You mean draft dodgers like Donald Trump?

  25. Lol he also 100% didn’t write that himself
