While I empathize with the writer for trying to come up with a comparison, Hillary is far worse than Carter.
Carter actually is a Christian by comparison to her, and he’s no Christian.
Only problem Trump has no chance in California
I’m pretty sure that Trump, as a share of population size at the time, got a higher % of primary votes than Reagan did.
I do not recall Carter murdering people around him almost daily...
This is true. CA was sympathetic and winnable for the GOP until about 2000, Schwartzenegger notwithstanding. In 2000, if I recall, CA still had a GOP governor, attorney general, and one US senator.
Carter was the incumbent. Reagan was a former two term governor of a huge state.
Aside from the fact that Jimmah was a dem and Ronnie was Rep, there isn’t much in common.
If he comes out here and delivers his message, I think he does.
He needs to attack California with skill of a combat commander. He is very much in play with folks who traditionally lined up with the Left.
The illegal immigrant is a small subset of the Hispanic population, and legals are not at all happy with what they have been up to.
It’s a mistake to buy off on the Democrat and GOPe mindset on this.
Yes, I agree with that.
Almost lost me a few times during his disgusting presidency.
(pure disgust to the max)
Things are definitely being massively manipulated.
Like anything there are a lot of variables. The hostage crisis-—if it had ended six months earlier? Who knows. If oil prices had fallen some, who knows?
More than anything, I think Carter lost the American people when he delivered his “Malaise” speech (never used the word) and blamed THEM for the state of the union.
I think that our “Hostage Crisis” comparison hasn’t coalesced yet. If the Turkish military base thing hadn’t calmed down, or if Russia marched into Ukraine a year ago he would have it.
For now, The possibility of Trump having that “The hostages are freed” moment may not happen.
If it does, it’ll be a Chinese aggression and I don’t want to think about that. If the Chinese take out a naval patrol or take American hostages while Obama is in then we are more screwed than you may think.
But if that were to happen with Trump - Lemme tell ya.. the Chinese do NOT WANT TRUMP which makes me want him 100 times more.
It would be so fantastic for the chicoms to kiss our ass for a change.
Was the Republican senator Boxer or Feinstein? /s
Hoft sure knows how to tell us what we want to hear.
Nope. Reagan 59.8% Trump 44.9%.
If you look hard enough you can find comparisons to anything and to read however you want.
This isn’t 1980.. this is one f—ked up country in 2016 with ~50% of the population that is clueless, useless and looking for hand outs.
Yet Osama and his cabal have done that to us daily for 8 years.
TIME Magazine—Liars then, liars now.
