Exactly. He never will go to anything where he isn’t the centre of attention, unless it’s to suck up to someone who he thinks is more important than himself. Like royalty, or Putin.
He had the unmitigated gall to show up to Former President Bush's father's funeral--even attempted to get his attention as he walked by his fat ugly orange a**. President Bush ignored him. And, when he was told not to attend Senator McCain's services he sent Ms. Plastic Surgery and her Ken Doll to the ceremony.
No one named Trump or Kirshner should have been admitted. Rather, they should have been unceremoniously turned away before they reached the entryway. PPOS the whole stinkin' bunch of 'em.
And the fact that flags will be flown at half staff for him even at trumps inauguration is gonna piss trump off because of the attention not being totally on him. I expect him making an ass of himself well before then. And Jimmy had a Nobel and trump never got his “Noble” as he called it.
I do hope it might get through to some who voted for the narcissist, however. It might give them a clue about what a real president looks like, and, come to think of it, what a former president can accomplish if he doesn't have to worry about being locked up for committing crimes.
Carter was so far above ugly or revengeful thought that I doubt he would have considered any negative or hateful action against Trump, or any MAGA people attending his services. He worked to unite Americans, and all people.
“humble compassionate servant, free of scandal” says it all. He was the better angels we talk about. He didn’t just say it, he SHOWED it in how he lived his life, especially post White House. The world lost a great human today.
Ronald Reagan was one of the most vile individuals ever elected into public service. He was the beginning of the end of America the way a lot of us remember.
Because of the consequences of his economic policies that ended up transferring trillion of dollars from the general population to the 1 % that in the next government will control everything 🙄
Yes, Carter was a great president. That would be correct. Then, along came Ronald Reagan, who ushered in the beginning of the demise of the middle class. But there are people in the middle class who still hold him in reverence— that would be the brainwashed right-wing stupidity we witness today.
This country, heck, the whole world needs model leadership like his...he did all the good that one man could. Pay attention MAGA....this is a much better and admirable legacy.
Both he and his wife were incredible humanitarians; always supporting and fighting for those less fortunate. During the coming darkness, your shining examples will help guide us back to the light and hopes of a better world for all of us.
So underrated as president, especially after Reagan's behind his back dealing with the enemy to release the hostages immediately AFTER Reagan won,but so loved as a human being.
Reagan was a Bohemian Grove inductee as were many others before him. I do wonder if blabbermouth Trump The Dumpster ever was invited or attended since he has little ability to control his mouth. Just a loudmouthed orange jerk SOB.
That he did. He also emphasized whatever soothsayer Jeanne Dixon contributed. Imagine "Just ask Nancy," and "I don't recall" actually doing something positive for the nation. They didn't and I can't.
btw: I liked him better as an actor and when he was married to the lovely Jane Wyman. Nancy "Just say No" always came off as elitist IMHO. Never like her.
That's one of the many ironies of the Republican Party. They are, more often than not, the ones who are most elitist and actually would never hang around the "working class". Which to be fair, working class to most republicans means white working class.
I agree. Reagan was a dirty president....and I think the release of the hostages was about the dirtest deed he did....besides his "Welfare Momma" remarks. Jimmy Carter was a wonderful president and human being.
The best president that America never knew they had.
He walked softly and used diplomacy to achieve the ends but all knew he had the big stick behind his back.
Also the only president that kept the US forces out of foriegn engagements except for a failed and flawed attempt to rescue the hostages... At least the armed forces learned from their mistakes.
I'll be thinking of him often hoping he'll sprinkle some of his humanitarian magic down on us as we head into 2025 and the WORST Presidency 2nd to HumptyTrumpty's 1st term.
I'm glad he did not have to live to see this next administration.
Did Jimmy Carter request that tRump not be invited to any post-mortem services?
That is not who Pres. Carter was, imo.
I doubt very much that trump will attend and subject himself to the unflattering comparisons.
Exactly. He never will go to anything where he isn’t the centre of attention, unless it’s to suck up to someone who he thinks is more important than himself. Like royalty, or Putin.

tRump is to much the narcissist to endure any comparison.
I do hope it might get through to some who voted for the narcissist, however. It might give them a clue about what a real president looks like, and, come to think of it, what a former president can accomplish if he doesn't have to worry about being locked up for committing crimes.
He wouldn't want to go, because he wouldn't be at the center of attention. I hope his whole clan is not invited, nor welcome.
Trump will attend and make it about himself. The press will bend over backwards to assist him in that.
He probably doesn't even know who he is.
Huh?
I believe President Carter had far too much grace to say anything to our vile president elect.
I wouldn’t be too sure of that!
Trump never attends anyone's funeral but his own family.
He was at old man Bush's ceremony where he was not welcome in the least. He's a full-fledged bag of 100% unpasteurized dung.
Well, like for Ivana, where he had her buried 1-2-3 after she “fell” down her stairs because you know that her NDA was up after the ten year mark!
Those are easy since he’s already at the golf course

My favorite president. The world is a lesser place without him, but his work is done. Let him rest in glory and peace.
May he rest in power!
A true humanitarian..
He also installed solar panels for the White House. Compassion for the environment. Then Reagan immediately dismantled them.
In my opinion Reagan was one of our worst.
Ronald Reagan was one of the most vile individuals ever elected into public service. He was the beginning of the end of America the way a lot of us remember.
His Presidency was the beginning of the end.
Because of the consequences of his economic policies that ended up transferring trillion of dollars from the general population to the 1 % that in the next government will control everything 🙄

Reagan just played a president on TV. Someone else developed the policies.
Reagan wash the beginning of the cancer we have now with the Malignant Tumor Trump!
Thank you for pointing this out so accurately. Carter, OTOH, was grace and dignity all the way. RIP
I read today in WaPO (I know!) that those solar-heating panels for water most were installed at the Unity College in ME in 1992.
A beautiful tribute to a man who exemplified the qualities that we desire in a WORLD LEADER.
A man of faith and fortitude. A national treasure.
This country, heck, the whole world needs model leadership like his...he did all the good that one man could. Pay attention MAGA....this is a much better and admirable legacy.
ABSOLUTELY!! We NEED MORE EXAMPLES LIKE Jimmy Carter!!
The mold was broken by trump
Let’s build it back!

Yes.....Reagan cheated with the help of Roger Stone...
Reagan also cheated with the help of George Will. Reagan and his team got Carter's debate prep and used it.
Reagan was a Bohemian Grove inductee as were many others before him. I do wonder if blabbermouth Trump The Dumpster ever was invited or attended since he has little ability to control his mouth. Just a loudmouthed orange jerk SOB.
I had to google Bohemian Grove. Interesting. I doubt Trump was invited before. He would brag about it. You're right about his Dumpster Blabbermouth.
That he did. He also emphasized whatever soothsayer Jeanne Dixon contributed. Imagine "Just ask Nancy," and "I don't recall" actually doing something positive for the nation. They didn't and I can't.

I believe Reagan also testified against fellow actors at the House -Un-American Activities Committee in 1947. Yeah, the Great Ronald Reagan.
He is also remembered for his racist comments about the Osage and their oil reserves on the reservation.
Also, Reagan and Nixon were on the phone and Reagan referred to African UN delegates in a very racist way.
The best president that America never knew they had.
He walked softly and used diplomacy to achieve the ends but all knew he had the big stick behind his back.
Also the only president that kept the US forces out of foriegn engagements except for a failed and flawed attempt to rescue the hostages... At least the armed forces learned from their mistakes.
That "failed and flawed attempt to rescue the hostages", thanks to Ronald Reagan, the 2nd worst POTUS behind DJT.
My first vote I never regretted it
Mine too. I truly loved the man.
Mine too!
He was also my first vote!
I believe my first vote, too.
RIP President Carter, we all should’ve done better.
We must keep his spirit within us.
Godspeed Mr. President
🇨🇦🇺🇦✌️

RIP 🪦 Mr Carter 💘💘♥️♥️
Truly a president for the people. Endeavoring to help all Americans..
His kind of decency is sorely missed.
RIP, Jimmy.
A job well done. A life well lived. May he rest in peace.
