How Jimmy Carter’s long feud with Donald Trump started on Stephen Colbert
Jimmy Carter may have been a longtime Sunday school teacher but he also knew how to dish it out to a political rival – with a smile on his face.

 

Nearly seven years ago, at the age of 93, Carter launched some memorable shots at Donald Trump in an interview on the Late Show with Stephen Colbert.

 

How Jimmy Carter’s long feud with Donald Trump started on Stephen Colbert

 

It came at a time when Democrats were in an uproar during Trump’s first term.

Trump hit back against Carter, repeatedly trashing him in campaign speeches until as recently as this fall – including on his 100th birthday.

 

Now, Carter’s death on Sunday is set to cut into some of the build-up to Trump’s inauguration on January 20th. Trump has been rolling out cabinet announcements and firing out policy ideas as he prepares to take the oath for the second time after his historic comeback. Democrats have been on the back foot.

 

But Carter is set to be memorialized in Washington, D.C. and Georgia just days before the inauguration. Following Carter’s death Trump issued a statement saying the nation owed the 39th president a ‘debt of gratitude’ for his service.

It was very different to the swipes and counter-swipes the two had previously taken at each other during a long feud.
