I’m impressed with DeSantis but months ago, he said he was going to start busing illegals out of Florida to Biden’s Delaware and other blue states.
Haven’t heard of one bus being filled with illegals yet…..

Great point.

Carter was a former submarine officer in the US Navy, incredibly intelligent, and HONEST. Despite his poor performance, you never got the impression he did not have the best interest of the nation at heart.

Carter:

Never took money from China

Served in the military

Was not a communist

Did not use race politics

Was honest, instead of Biden and Obama who are never honest

Was not demented

Fairly accurate rating of presidents, too early to rate Biden but Carter is ranked around the middle at#26, Lincoln 1, Trump 41 slightly above Buchanon who is last at 44.

Yep^^

The only reason Democrats support the Segregationist Biden is because he is Democrat, period, just like his KKK Buddy, Robert Byrd.

Ratings of Presidents says more about the historians doing the rating than the Presidents they are rating.


Lincoln during his Presidency was rated as an awful President. He was on his way, to being a one-term President until Sherman took his stroll through Georgia.


Both Reagan, Truman and Ike were rated as awful as soon as they left office. Their ratings were moved significantly upward when the politics no longer mattered and the "truth" started to emerge.


A historian wrote an interesting book on President Wilson and how historians viewed him over time. He went from one of the worst Presidents to one of the best and now is slowly sinking in the ratings as a awful President.


Woodrow Wilson was a awful President.



A racist, that resegrated the Federal government employment, and really set us up for the racial divide in this country that lingers to this day.


A absent President, that did NOTHING, not even utter a word about the 1918 pandemic.


A President that got the United States into the DUMBEST war in US History. WWI. That set up the WWII, which would have NEVER happened without Wilson and his stupid decision to enter the war.


AND on the C-SPAN list he is number 13!!!



Just because you got an education in history, does NOT mean you are smart!!!

Unfortunately, Democrats like high gas prices, because they like to use it as leverage to push renewable energy and public transit (which, they themselves wouldn’t use, but they want the peasants out of their cars!).

But for the rest of us who are normal people who are impacted by these things, I agree!

Difficult to say because of the times they were in.


Carter certainly was a disaster but then again, he had the Cold War containing him from even bigger goofs.

The market value of our Texas home went from $317k to about $550k. Our home in the SF Bay Area is up over $300k also. Grocery shelves are in good shape and have been since the Henny Pennys started whining about it. And our mortgage payment is down due to the historically low interest rate we got.

I can't say things are all that disastrous to me.
You must be a filthy rich Democrat to think that homes in the half million to over a million dollar range is a good thing.

In today's dollars, Jimmy Carters gas prices were just under $4/gallon.
