Jimmy Carter, after hip surgery, back teaching Sunday school

Former U.S. President Jimmy Carter talked about his recent health setback and his conversation with President Donald Trump, as he returned to teaching Sunday school in Georgia for the first time since breaking his hip.

Carter told people gathered at the Maranatha Baptist Church in Plains that he and his wife, Rosalynn, have nursing care at home and are doing fine. He thanked those present for their prayers and good wishes.

The 94-year-old Carter broke his hip last month at his home when he fell while leaving to go turkey hunting. He subsequently had hip replacement surgery. […]

“The main purpose of his (Trump’s) call was to say very frankly to me on a private line that the Chinese were getting way ahead of the United States in many ways,” Carter said.

He said he told Trump the U.S. has been in constant war for years, spending trillions of dollars, while China has invested in projects such as high speed rail that benefit its people. …

I’m sure you’ve heard the saying, “The devil takes care of his own”, right? A similar one is “It’s hard to kill a bad thing”.

“The 94-year-old Carter...”

Why do incompetent, Socialist-types have such a long shelf life?

Sorry to hear. My wife has similar issues. I would seek treatment. No need to be afraid of doctors. This is not the 1800s. :-)

It’s just hard to kill evil. Satan is the prince of the power of the air and will be until Christ returns. In the meantime we live in this “present evil age” as the Bible, so evil WILL run rampant, sorry to say

The Castro brothers’ favorite toilet brush and the second worst POTUS ever, but gotta give him props for being a tough old b@$t@rd.

Jimmy Carter, back at the job he does best — telling God what to think. Jimmy was alway half a whack-job.

Jimmy's not wrong.

That's for sure. 0bama said that a fancy operation like that on someone Jimmuh's age was a waste of health care resources and he should take an aspirin instead.

You have to say this for Jimmy, that man will not be kept down.

He’s going to get up twice during his own funeral!

Carter was always weak but why the need to bash my ancestry which Jimmy Carter by the way is in favor of banning any display of.

You’re virtue signaling by a fake aassociation of Jimmy Carter and the old CSA

Carter is on record repeatedly condemning the display of anything confederate except memorial over and over

I doubt seriously Judah Benjamin or any righteous southerner would have supported Islam over Jews or Christians as the hapless Carter has

Modern day southerners who are respectful of their ancestors sure as eff don’t do they?

White southerners are the nations most dependable Christian and right wing block

If all you’re gonna do after leaving the site for 20 years is come back and south bash then thanks for nothing
