You might want to mention which ones were his fault vs which ones we suffered through that were not of his doing (such as an OPEC oil embargo and stagflation)… Its never the fault of a Democrat when things happen but its Trump's fault that the Chinese allowed a dangerous virus to escape? Check. Carter was a disaster in foreign policy. Never met an anti-American despot that he did not like. His failure to support the Shah allowed a much worse evil to come into power. The Iran hostages while he sat around playing with his pecker. Loved Ortega and Fidel. Loved Arafat. He sucked. I was there. Self righteous douche bag. I cannot believe there is even a thought he did not suck. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cannot believe there is even a thought he did not suck. No one (reasonable) blames Trump for there being a pandemic. He didn’t start it. It is the way he handled the pandemic that he was blamed for. But you guys live to blame Carter for things he had no control over. Carter got a historic peace deal done in the Middle East that ended years of war over Israel. He refused to support a dictator in the Shah of Iran. The Shah's repression is the cause of the inevitable Islamic Revolution. America and the UK overthrew democracy in Iran and propped up a dictator. Carter wasn’t the cause of the problems there. He inherited a mess and he would have been seen as a hero had the military mission to rescue the hostages succeeded. The failure of the mission was not his fault, he just had to live with the outcome. No President is perfect, certainly not Jimmy Carter. But he was a way better president than most people give him credit for. ChesterCopperpot1, MadMax, ChemEngr79, and 1 other 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You and others blamed every death on Trump countless times. Go back through some of these forums. /facepalm Trump disbanded the Office of Pandemic Preparedness that Obama/Biden had set up at NSC and revoked the NIH officials that were responsible for monitoring in China as part of that. Trump downplayed the seriousness of the virus, said it would just disappear like magic. He ignored the intelligence on the subject coming from our agenst in China all the way back in Nov'19. Downplayed and politicized wearing masks and social distancing. Downplayed testing and even said that the cases were high because of all the testing and maybe we shouldn't test so much (lol). Downplayed containment measures. Botched the logistics of PPE and testing, creating months-long shortages. He handled the entire thing in the worst conceivable manner from the onset. The only thing they got right was fast-tracking the vaccine production (which was mastered by a Turkish immigrant scientist living in Germany). No one said he caused the global pandemic obviously, but what he did is exacerbate the pandemic in the US by handling it in historically embarrassing/imbecilic fashion. If Trump hadn't politicized public health to the extent that he did and brainwashed swaths of the public into not taking it seriously, hundreds of thousands more people would be alive today.

Go back through some of these forums. No one has changed their tune. Saying his pathetic handling of a pandemic was the cause of hundreds of thousands of American deaths is one thing. That’s on him. But that’s not the same as saying he caused the pandemic in the first place. He didn’t. He just failed to properly respond to it.

Imagine what a 7-2 court will do. It’s just absurd that he won’t retire. Dude has been on the bench for 27 fucking years. RBG is the reason we have a 6-3 court now.
