We are about to enter Carter’s era again: Stagflation and long gas lines.

Those not old enough to remember it are bound to live the hard lessons we learned at the end of the 70’s.

Will they get it? The same way the American people did in 1980?

When we kicked the bum known as “Carter” out of office and elected Ronald Reagan by a massive landslide?

Leaves out how, before his political career, he and Rosalynn were on a committee of white parents seeking to block a school being built in their neighborhood that would be largely black. The man raised incompetence to an art form.

I also remember the gas lines. Carter was the last Democrat I voted for. The Muereil boat lift was the biggest mess imaginable. Castro told Americans they could come and get relatives out of Cuba. Carter let people take their boats down to get relatives out of Cuba. Castro loaded their boats with criminals and the criminally insane . We had a crime wave following that. During the middle of the boat lift Carter told people they could go then reversed course and said they couldn’t go, then it was a go etc. People that got confused etc had their bats seized. The boats were tied together and the wind, waves and storms beat the boats into useless. It was an absolute disaster. I remember a news casts showing the confiscated boats being destroyed. Millions of dollars worth of boats destroyed.

Oh, like it matters who We The People vote for?

“Stagflation and long gas lines.”

Not to mention impotence toward Islamic terrorism. And indifference toward Castro exporting his criminal class.
