Since Ronny and Poppy are already (thankfully) long ded, that leaves Bill as the new "oldest" prez at 78
(The actual oldest is Biden who's 82 and will be nearly 30 years older than Clinton was when the latter left office)
-
Biden is older than Clinton
-
And ol Billy Boy had a scare this week too. He'll probably live to see 100 sadly.
-
-
did they get his semen in time?
-
Dang I was hoping for Carter/Biden 2028.
-
doesn't say you have to be alive to run in the constitution
-

Of course he waits until a day after I finish making my 2025 prediction bingo card. Prick.
-
gunned down in the FUCKIN streets. just a fuckin kid, whole life ahead of him
-
I just can't believe he was younger than biden
-
I never get tired of reminding people that Biden's so old he was literally born when the battle of Stalingrad was raging.

Vaxxed?

Told ya it was gonna kill people. 5 more years

The hospice killed him because he was costing too much.
-
The opposite is actually true.
-
-
So what shitty things did he do? All I know about him is the habitat for humanity shit and the peanut farming.
-
first one that comes to mind is Operation Cyclone - he armed the reactionary mujahideen in afghanistan to impede the USSR's support of the nascent Democratic Republic of Afghanistan
-
Blowback season 4 mindset right here

He armed Indonesia during their genocide against East Timor.
Unfortunately, despite its professions of support for human rights in Indonesia, the Carter Administration picked up where Kissinger and Ford had left off. As Noam Chomsky writes in the preface to Matthew Jardine's 1995 book, East Timor: Genocide in Paradise, "In 1977, Indonesia found itself short of weapons, an indication of the scale of its attack. The Carter administration accelerated the arms flow."[7] U.S. arms sales hit $112 million in 1978, and averaged nearly $60 million per year for the four years of the Carter administration -- this was more than twice the level of weaponry supplied to the Suharto regime by the Ford Administration.

Indonesia was him too? jfc was Carter the worst of the bunch? Afghanistan, Cambodia and Indonesia? Monster.

Reagan and the wave of conservative world leaders in the 80s made it the new status quo, but Jimmy Carter is often credited as the first neoliberal president and the starting point of neoliberalism in the US.

Here’s a short write-up: https://afflictthecomfortable.org/2020/11/19/jimmy-carter-is-a-saint-now-was-a-war-criminal-then/
-
The father of neoliberalism in the US lol. Many people think it’s Reagan, but Carter laid the groundwork for everything that happened afterwards.
-
He kinda did the Khmer rouge so jot that one down. Also the mujahideen. Sold peanuts too, prick.
-
He knew what was happening in Cambodia, too. He said something along the lines of "Pol Pot is bad, but a necessary evil to stop Vietnam's communism from spreading."
I don't know what's worse than children being euthanized because they need glasses or teachers/professors getting public executions for being teachers/professors. And AFAIK, it's the largest killing in history based on population. Something like 25% of Cambodians were killed by the Khmer Rouge.

Ghoul, but he seemed to basically have gotten the memo he was going to hell.

Liberals, man. Liberals...
Jimmy Carter exiting with grace at the last chance to have a state funeral with dignity.

Edit
I muted "Carter" at Bluesky but there's a sea of this shit.
Upon a former President's death, the flag should be flown at half-mast for 30 days. I'm going to bet even-money that Trump refuses to honor this after his inauguration.

I'll always remember The Simpsons calling him history's greatest monster and the Judge Dredd story The Cursed Earth where his head is on Mt. Rushmore.
-
Welp, he turned out to not be Pirvax. At least i hope his lower abdomen exploded.
