Actually, Carter had another response to the Soviet invasion: he stopped sales of hundreds of millions of bushels of American grain to the USSR, ruining many thousands of hardworking farmers, while the USSR simply bought their grain from Canada and other opportunistic infections.

Yes, hindsight is 20/20. We should have allowed the Soviets to take Afghanistan and dumped Jimmy over their to build houses.

Dear Mr. President, the current Democratic Party has turned so far politically Left it triggered off the #walkaway movement, which has picked up a lot of support despite the attempts by social media to suppress it.

[On this, Mr. Carter is completely correct,]
Yes he is. The GOP has tons of good campaign material supplied by the lunatics themselves. They should be painting them as extremists and out of the mainstream 24/7. Show examples of the crazy rhetoric from multiple Dem candidates constantly. Show if their policies are enacted how it will affect multiple constituencies negatively.
This cycle was a prime opportunity to nationalize the election showing the stark contrast between policies of both parties/Trump.

In other words, Dems must avoid saying what they really think, and must deceive the American public.
To: 2ndDivisionVet
Sure Jimmy, lie to the moderates. Tell them you are much more conservative than you are. Trick them. Don’t let them in on the truth about what you are up to, which is the destruction of all that it means to be an American. Don’t tell them that you want for all of us peons to be under a one world tyranny run by so-called elites who think we are the expendable unwashed masses. We are there to serve them and keep them filthy rich and pampered, until used up or not compliable we are removed. Cottle them, tell them what they want to hear. Tell them anything, except the truth.
