    We didn’t deserve Carter. We still don’t. He’s a better category of human than nearly all of the politicians we have at the moment.

      That is why the Democratic party drastically changed its primary rules after Carter was elected (to make them less democratic, and to give establishment elite party members more power).

      They tried to tighten the collar on the public even more when Occasio-Cortez primaried an establishment Democrat.

      The left-wing of the Democratic Party, including President Jimmy Carter, are the red-haired stepchildren of the party, and they’ll never let us forget it.

      There are more secret fascists than it appears who will Hail Hydra when Secret Hitler makes his appearance.
