Biden did a great service to Carter on his way out. He supplanted Carter as the worst president in our lifetime. Any sneering remarks about rapist, or misogynist about Trump fall on deaf ears since JFK, and Clinton molested their own pages while in office and we were told it was none of our business. Don’t believe all the liberal hype about 45 soon to be 47 because most of us want to vote for a thinking president, not a walking corpse wound up by a nameless staff of idiots.
Remind me what Carter did that made him such a bad president? The Camp David Accords? Removing price controls from oil and natural gas? Ending the government’s ability to set prices for the trucking, railroad and airline industries? Reducing the Debt/GDP ratio to its lowest level in the post WW II period? Ending runaway inflation of 15 years with appointing Volker and then allowing him the independence to do his job? What did he DO that made him such a bad president?
Well those of us who lived through it couldn’t find jobs, went to graduate school in mainstream professions and couldn’t find jobs except at minimum wage; the economy was stalled, interest rates ballooned from 12 to 18% and no one could buy a house or car; we parked our jalopies at the gas station in our pajamas to get a few gallons because there was a gas shortage and the prices were ridiculous; hostages, photo-op Middle East moment, no Olympics, “new normal” depression era — actually makes Bidey look pretty good.

He had no charisma and couldn't lead.
He did, as I had not previously known, open the road to the superb American craft beers and small-batch bourbon we enjoy today.
Other than the first sentence, I will never diss Jimmy Carter again.
Iran took American hostages. Carter failed to respond. Remember '444 days'. I do. Should I mention gas lines?
