Former President Jimmy Carter had kind words for Cuban dictator Fidel Castro, who died Friday, saying in a statement he and his wife remember fondly our visits with him in Cuba and his love of his country.
Castro, who was 90, was long a scourge of the U.S. who brought the Cold War to Americas doorstep. But he and Carter, a Georgia native, had warmer relations.
Carter took a step to normalize relations between the two nations during his presidency, and the two shared several visits, including a 2011 journey where Castro called Carter a friend.

Jimmy's time too will come and they will be able to reminisce together with a special warmth.

Holy geez.
Compare and contrast the statement by Donald Trump, with the statements given by Obama and Jimmy Carter. Tell me which one uniquely was willing to tell it like it is, and which one really is willing to state the legacy of Castro.

Disagree.
0bama is more recent in your memory, so it feels like he’s worse.
But with Carter, we had ...
* Price controls
* Mile long gas lines
* Double-digit inflation virtually his whole term
* “Stagflation” - soaring inflation, stagnant economy
* Endless hijackings
* Normalization of the murderous PLO
* The Iranian “revolution”, which began the current jihad
There is more, I’m certain, but even 0bama’s record isn’t this bad.

I’ll cut him some slack. He’s 92 years old and has had brain cancer, so the dementia chances are strong here.
