Jimmy Carter: Trump won election because of Russian help
Atlanta Journal-Constitution ^ | 6/28/19

Former President Jimmy Carter said Friday he believes Donald Trump would have lost the 2016 election without Russian help.

“There’s no doubt that the Russians did interfere in the election and I think the interference, although not yet quantified, if fully investigated, would show that Trump didn’t actually win the election in 2016,” said Carter. “He lost the election and he was put in office because the Russians interfered on his behalf.”

Carter was speaking in Leesburg, Va. at a panel discussion on human rights hosted by the Carter Center.

Carter, screaming: “The killer rabbits! The killer rabbits! They’re coming for me and they’re coming for you, too. Why doesn’t anybody listen to me. Run for it before it’s too late!”

Handler: “Uh, Mr. President, let’s go back to finding Russian collusion with Trump to steal elections. And you didn’t finish the 1,000 piece jigsaw puzzle of the Taj Mahal. Remember it relaxes you, sir?”

Jimmuh, go back to praising Arafat and building your homes. I think that’s about all you were ever good for.

Carter always carried his own (phony empty) bags for photo ops...…

So? Mueller carries bags under his eyes.

Excellent post.

A lot of people, even Freepers, think Jimmy Carter was a good ol' boy that had a good heart, but was just out of his depth. Carter was always a small time con man. He turned against the Shah of Iran because the Shah wouldn't rewrite oil contracts to give Carter and his cronies money.

His brother, Billy, was working for the Libyans. I don't know if Carter's plan was to blow up the middle east, or if he was just trying to retaliate for a shake down gone bad, but don't buy this "elder statesman" bunk cause he goes out and hammers a few nails.

political hack.
