Both things can be true, but it’s funny that two opposite sounding replies came to this one comment about US politics.

      Carter started implementing the neoliberal economic policies that Reagan would take further, he was the one who started tearing up the New Deal and abandoning unions and the working class. I’d probably say JFK was the last defensible president, but hell, I’d take Nixon over Carter. There’s a reason he lost in a such a landslide.
