    Carter got a raw deal.

    There is no way that Taco, in a sane universe, should be popular with any sentient being.

      If you’d like to do some reading, and if you’re willing to hate everyone you ever respected. First learn about neo-liberalism and why it’s really bad, then review Carter’s presidency.

      Jimmy Carter started the fire everyone blames Trump for. He kicked off deregulation, empowered Wall Street, and backed brutal regimes abroad, all while smiling about “human rights.” That shift gutted unions, killed good jobs, and fueled endless wars. Reagan doubled down, Clinton made it bipartisan, Obama gave it a pretty face, and Trump lit the wreckage on fire. It’s not about party, it’s about 40+ years of selling out working people to corporations and empire. Carter didn’t end the New Deal. He started the funeral.
