Former President Jimmy Carter made his feelings known on a Donald Trump victory in 2020, saying if Trump were reelected for a second term it would be "a disaster."
The former commander-in-chief, speaking at a town hall at the Carter Center in Atlanta Tuesday night, said he had not decided yet who he would vote for, but noted he voted for Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders over Hillary Clinton during the 2016 Democratic primary.
"I'm going to keep an open mind. One of the major factors I will have in my mind is who can beat Trump," Carter said as the crowd applauded. "I think it will be a disaster to have four more years of Trump."

It WOULD be a disaster... for globalists, envirowhackos, open border zealots, and socialist liberals.
Mr Carter- Projecting again
In 1980, the 'Rats and Big Media told us electing Ronald Reagan would be a disaster.
We decided otherwise.
In 1984, the 'Rats and Big Media told us reelecting Ronald Reagan would be a disaster.
We decided otherwise.
I'm all for deciding opposite to the advice of the 'Rats and Big Media.
Says Jimmah Carter the Soviet Stooge that brought the World modern Iran by protecting Soviet Communist agents in Iran and the United States.
Jimmy is a loser. He used to be #1 worst president, and now he is not even that
so let’s return to Jimmy’s kind of government...
21 percent interest rates, no jobs, and prices shooting for the moon
and a disaterious foreign policy that we are still afflicted from, with Carter’s bff’s ruling Iran and threatening to nuke America....the PLO resurrected and terrorizing Israel, and Muslim terrorist gangs invading European countries, UK, and USA
Americans, in the beginning, tried socialism. Like every other people who tried such a non-starter for providing individual incentives, individual freedom, and prosperous economy, they failed. Here is the story:
The Economic Dimension Of Liberty Protected By The Constitution
"Agriculture, manufactures, commerce, and navigation, the four pillars of our prosperity, are the most thriving when left most free to individual enterprise."
- Thomas Jefferson
"The enviable condition of the people of the United States is often too much ascribed to the physical advantages of their soil & climate .... But a just estimate of the happiness of our country will never overlook what belongs to the fertile activity of a free people and the benign influence of a responsible government."
- James Madison
America's Constitution did not mention freedom of enterprise per se, but it did set up a system of laws to secure individual liberty and freedom of choice in keeping with Creator-endowed natural rights. Out of these, free enterprise flourished naturally. Even though the words "free enterprise' are not in the Constitution, the concept was uppermost in the minds of the Founders, typified by the remarks of Jefferson and Madison as quoted above.
Already, in 1787, Americans were enjoying the rewards of individual enterprise and free markets. Their dedication was to securing that freedom for posterity. The learned men drafting America's Constitution understood history - mankind's struggle against poverty and government oppression. And they had studied the ideas of the great thinkers and philosophers.
They were familiar with the near starvation of the early Jamestown settlers under a communal production and distribution system and Governor Bradford's diary account of how all benefited after agreement that each family could do as it wished with the fruits of its own labors.
Later, in 1776, Adam Smith's INQUIRY INTO THE NATURE AND CAUSES OF THE WEALTH OF NATIONS and Say's POLITICAL ECONOMY had come at just the right time and were perfectly compatible with the Founders' own passion for individual liberty. Jefferson said these were the best books to be had for forming governments based on principles of freedom.
They saw a free market economy as the natural result of their ideal of liberty. They feared concentrations of power and the coercion that planners can use in planning other peoples lives; and they valued freedom of choice and acceptance of responsibility of the consequences of such choice as being the very essence of liberty. They envisioned a large and prosperous republic of free people, unhampered by government interference. The Founders believed the American people, possessors of deeply rooted character and values, could prosper if left free to:
Such a free market economy was, to them, the natural result of liberty, carried out in the economic dimension of life. Their philosophy tended to enlarge individual freedom - not to restrict or diminish the individual's right to make choices and to succeed or fail based on those choices. The economic role of their Constitutional government was simply to secure rights and encourage commerce. Through the Constitution, they granted their government some very limited powers to:
- acquire and own property
- have access to free markets
- produce what they wanted
- work for whom and at what they wanted
- travel and live where they would choose
- acquire goods and services which they desired
Adam Smith called it "the system of natural liberty." James Madison referred to it as "the benign influence of a responsible government." Others have called it the free enterprise system. By whatever name it is called, the economic system envisioned by the Founders and encouraged by the Constitution allowed individual enterprise to flourish and triggered the greatest explosion of economic progress in all of history. Americans became the first people truly to realize the economic dimension of liberty.
- assure that the ground rules were fair (a fixed standard of weights and measures)
- encourage initiative and inventiveness (copyright and patent protection laws)
- provide a system of sound currency with an established value (gold and silver coin)
- enforce free trade (free from interfering special interests)
- protect individuals from the harmful acts of others

“...but noted he voted for Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders..”
Of course he did...w fellow traveler. Tovarishch.
He mid-wifed the Islamic Republic, the one that spreads terror around the world, has killed thousands of Americans, and may be on the verge of nuclear weapons.
Bammy simply picked up where Jimmy-The-Good left off.

President Trump could receive no higher praise than being criticized by Jimmy “The Worst President of the 20th Century” Carter.
That man claims to be a Christian. I do not understand how he can embrace and espouse such anti-Christian ideology. When he was elected, I remember crying. I could not believe that our country was so deceived.
The first time I was old enough to vote in a Presidential election was in 1980, when I voted for Ronald Reagan against Jimmy Carter. It was a really easy choice.
Packages of peanuts made their way to every DC politician’s office.
Jimmah is only repeating what someone rehearsed him to repeat.
