      There’s a reasonable chance he’s been purged from the rolls.

    This makes me happy. Hopefully it’ll encourage more people to help with his charity work too.

    Hey, Donny. Even though I’m yearning to join my wife, I’m in constant pain, and I’m past ready to die, I’m hanging on for 3 more months just to give you the middle finger.

      Jimmy Carter would never give Trump the middle finger. He’s too classy.

      He’s the sort of man who stands for something he believes in and leaves it at that. He was the Fred Rogers of politicians.

      I can feel your loss. Losing your soulmate is devastating. My best advice I can give you is to seek help and talk, either a professional or a friend. Suicide should never be a solution and I‘m sure that your wife wouldn‘t want you to leave this earth when we don‘t know whats on the other side.

      Edit: Also, we need you to kick Donnys or MAGAa ass again in four years

      Edit2: Nvm, I misunderstoof the comment

        I believe they are referencing that Jimmy Carter’s wife died last year.

        I think he’s waiting for 2028… which would really be pushing it for Jimmy, since a fascist dictatorship that no longer holds elections might be in charge.

        If that’s the case, I wish him the best of luck in 2032.
