Former President Trump mocked former President Carter on Monday during his Iowa caucus victory speech, appearing to take a dig at Carter in the wake of his wife’s death.
“My wife attended the funeral two months ago of Rosalynn Carter. And it was beautiful. Jimmy Carter was there,” Trump said. “I thought to myself, Jimmy Carter is happy now, because he will go down as a brilliant president by comparison to Joe Biden.”

Democratic advocacy organization American Bridge 21st Century denounced the Trump comments as “cruel” Tuesday.
“Donald Trump has operated the same way his entire four decades in public life,” spokesman Brandon Weathersby said in a statement. “He doesn’t care who he insults, disrespects, or offends as long as he gets his way in the end. Nothing is sacred or off-limits for Trump, not the dead, not American icons, not even some of our most decorated veterans or the memories of our war heroes.”
“This is the person to whom the Republican Party just handed the first state in its primary process and who, barring an act of God, will be their next nominee for president,” he added.

I wonder what "mean tweets" Trump will have to say when Jimmy Carter dies?
The media will surely take that statement out of context.
“ appearing to take a dig at Carter “
Wrong - he’s using Carter’s historically abysmal record to show how bad *President Retard* is. Duh
Are you really that dumb?
Calm down; Carter was a terrible president and he only looks good by comparison to the Senile Corrupt Usurper.
At least Jimmy Carter was a veteran who loved his country. You can’t really say that about Joe Biden who’s corrupt. He got most things wrong, even more than Jimmy Carter which is saying a lot.
“American Bridge 21st Century or AB PAC is a liberal American Super PAC that supports Democratic candidates and opposes Republican candidates. It was founded by David Brock in 2010 and is associated with Media Matters for America.”

It is amazing how much trouble President Trump supposedly causes by merely stating the obvious. Carter was an inept leader by most measures. Biden is much more inept by every meausure.
Ouch.
The memes about the worst president have been flying for months now.
Bidet* should suffer the same humiliating election defeat as Carter.
At least Carter was thought to have been a decent person, unlike the thin skinned @sshole Bidet*.
>> Are you really that dumb?
I don’t think so — I could be wrong! — but he hates President Trump so much that no stretch, no twisting of his words, is out of bounds.
Absolutely a hit piece on Trump start to finish.
“ At least Jimmy Carter was a veteran”
So was Lee Harvey Oswald
Jimmy Carter is a man of class and values compared to Biden and he came to President Trump’s inauguration in 2017.
Trump thanked Carter for being present.
That’s why I know this story is a hit on Trump.
Biden isn’t worthy to shine Carter’s shoes.
You Angry Trumpers crack me up. Let me let you in with a little secret. I’m not a Never Trumper. Nor do I worship his “225 pound” ass like so many here do.
I plan on voting for him come November. Despite his faults and failures.
But you AT’s go ahead and keep up your Trumpian tactics.
Really.
Did he hold a bloody simulacrum of Carter's severed head up in front of the audience ?
He’s not even worthy to be in his presence.
Non-sequitur.
That idiot “comedian” is not in the same status as a president/candidate, though the victim is.
So sad Brock was one of the few great conservatives who transformed to a traitor.
As did Ariana Huffingnpuffington, later.
All he said was that Jimmy Crater was a terrible president.
He was. I remember.
