Jimmy Carter Zings Donald Trump: Apparently, America Wants A Jerk For President

[SF1900]

Former President Jimmy Carter took a shot at President Donald Trump on Friday’s broadcast of “The Late Show.”

When host Stephen Colbert asked Carter whether America really “wants a jerk as president,” Carter replied: “Apparently, from this recent election year. I never knew it before.”

Colbert then asked Carter, 93, to name one of the most important qualities that is needed in the role of POTUS.

“I used to think it was to tell the truth,” Carter responded. “But I’ve changed my mind lately,” he added, in another apparent dig at Trump.

Carter, who was ostensibly on the show to promote his new book Faith: A Journey For All, later admitted to praying for Trump.

“I pray that he’ll be a good president and that he’ll keep our country at peace and that he’ll refrain from using nuclear weapons and that he will promote human rights. So yeah, I pray for him,” he added.

There will never be a nuclear war - it's too risky for the people in power.
Also, how many presidents have spoken the truth and survived?

Carter was too soft.

This is the kind of shit you talk about when you know that you were a shit President.

You got nothing positive to say about your own administration so you gotta talk shit about someone else's.

Donald Trump is mean, boo hoo.  Go fuck yourself.

Oh brother. Was he saying this when Bill Clinton was in office lying to Americans? He’s either senile or playing the biased, dumb, or naive card. A politician telling the truth.....what a concept.

Nice man, but consistently ranked in the bottom 1/3 of all Presidents. Even a softening of American politics the last few years hasn't helped him much.

[Royalty]

Carter was not re-elected for a 2nd term. That says it all.

[J. Richards]

Stopped reading at mention of Stephen Colbert... entitled crybaby lib right there..

[mazrim]

He doesn't think telling the truth is important anymore by his own admission so maybe he is lying?

Jimmy Carter should kiss Obama's feet for replacing him as the worst President in history.

As for Carter praying for Trump?  Well, any God that has the common sense He gave Himself would ignore that fucktard liberal.

Trump is what this country needs.  Carter, Obama, Hillary and their ilk would turn us back into a cuntry.  FTN.
