Carter was the worse president of the United States until Biden took the title away. May he finally rest in peace!
No, fuckface, your Boy Trump takes that crown. By a LANDSLIDE!!!
Flags lowered as Trump takes office. HA AHA HA HA HA HA
Your mother was the worst piece of ass your father ever had. Obviously.
Trump owned Carter. As did Regan.
Trumps win was the landslide! And by the way my boy doesn't shit in his pants.
Get over it you indoctrinated morons. Move on with your lives. Four beautiful years in the horizon.
Are you sure of that ? Look at all the infighting in MAGA world and all the crazy rhetoric and insane ideas being spewed, and he’s still not president?!?!? Beautiful years may not be the correct adjective to use . Insane / crazy may be better suited , but to give you the benefit of the doubt—- let’s wait and see . Peace
President Elon Musk.
Carter was a good man. He is laughing from heaven at all this nonsense from heaven.
Biden shits his pants and the worst President, thanks to Carter another one that shited his pants! Hahahahahaha!
You will never have what both Carter and Biden had. Shit for brains is what you got. El pobre...
When/ where / how did Trump own Carter ??? Trump doesn’t “ own” an inch of Carter’s human decency and civility.
Rumor has it , that Trumps wears adult diapers. Its been reported. Look it up !! His supporters even wore diapers to his rallies ( Real men wear diapers was their cry). So who really shits his pants ?????
Y'al posting shit here about voting when y'al don't even have the age to vote BOLA DE GUERQUITOS MAMONES.
Supporting the US and UK installed Shah of Iran is an example of America’s
complicity in destabilization in the Middle East. Actions have a ripple effect
that may not produce desired outcomes. It’s time to take care of the middle class and workers. The wealthy have had more than their fair share for
decades. The incoming president should put Greenland and Panama
on the back burner. America first, remember?
You are a history expert. Few people know the history of Presidents. In fact, few people know who Jimmy Carter is, they were not even born when he was president.
So make up your mind Trump , who is the worst president?? One day you say its Biden, another day Obama, then Clinton, and then Bush etc??? The worst president in your eyes is whoever disagrees with you , right ??? Typical narcissist , insecure fool. Just look in the mirror and you’ll see the worst president EVER !!!
He really was the worst.
The Panama Canal is a moneymaker that President Carter should never have sold for a Dollar. As for Greenland, it’s about national security.
6:50. Panama Canal belongs to Panama. You can’t keep something that doesn’t belong to you. By your reasoning, we’ll take whatever we feel is
in our best interest. Imperialism and colonialism days are over.
@9:02 Idiota! Getting Panama canal control and Greenland will help the United States of America posper, not sending billions to Ukraine.
@7:01 Ni los dos celebros de Atole (Carter/Biden) se hace uno como el chingon Trump! Hahahahahahahha!
Hey 11:38 , looks like the “Hahahahaha “ bandit is back. There’s a book called a dictionary, use it cause its not “ celebros” its cerebros. So who’s the one that has atole for brains ??? Hahahahaha. Happy new year
January 10, 2025 at 6:50 AM PENDEJO
the atomic bomb is our national security IDIOTA!!!
@2:09 Ok so perfect...I'm at time 11:36, not 11:38. You're not good with numbers. There are books for Math, you should read one, or get some eyeglasses. Hahahahahaha! The celebros was a typo, like that never happens to you... So stop acting like your ass doesn't stink! Hahahahahaha!
Good man, I’ll give him that. 2nd worst president in history, Biden is the GOAT in that category.
