Carter said Trump is rightly concerned that ‘China is getting ahead of us,´” Hurt wrote. (Tweet) She continued on in a second tweet: “Carter said that’s true. He suggested maybe it’s because China hasn’t been spending money on war like the US. They haven’t been at

Good. America needs to remember our internecine squabbles make us weaker and potential and actual enemies stronger.
Lonnnnnng after we’re all gone, China and the USA will be the two remaining superpowers and an “easy coexistance” seems increasingly unlikely.

Brilliant, cant-miss strategy. Get the advice, do the opposite.
Next up: John Kerry, Hillary Clinton, Susan Rice and Ben Rhodes.

Trump probably just wanted to hear Jimmah´s opinions on China, so that he could then do just the OPPOSITE.

Jimmah got it all wrong. Melania called Rosalyn to talk about china patterns. Mrs. Carter suggested a rabbit warren motif.

Trump meant the best Chinese takeout dish. Jimmah always liked stir fired wabbit with peanut sauce, served with a bottle of Billy Beer.

Oh, Man! What a crock of Hooey! The day Donald Trump calls Jimmy Carter for advice is not ever going to be a real day. In Jimmah´s dreams, perhaps...but, not in reality.

OK, who pranked Jimmah??
Alec Baldwin get a little drunk and figured "What the heck, lets play a joke on Jimmah; he is probably pretty lonely."
Either that, or Jimmah´s hallucinating.

I´m curious. Let´s assume DJT did call carter. Hasn´t there always been a courtesy-thing among Presidents that they wouldn´t divulge such conversations? Maybe those courtesy-things apply to all but DJT. Not too obvious...

Hmm. Why do I doubt that Trump would care what this incompetent fool, and DEM, would have to say?

If Trump called Carter to talk China, he probably wanted to know where the set was that Carter probably stole from the State Dining Room.

If it happened, it will be the last time Trump called Carter. These calls are expected to be held in confidence.

Trump probably told Jimmy to stay out of China and U.S. talks. Jimmy has a problem and always sticks his nose in places he should not be. There is no way that Trump was asking for guidance.....only in Jimmy´s dreams.

Probably checking to see how many Habitat for Humanities houses Jimmah can get built in Sanctuary Cities.
Should be easy, it´s not like the illegals are used to toilets, running water or electricity.

I think it was a dream on Jimmy´s part. If he claims that Trump called him for advice on Iran then we will know for sure.
Or maybe Melania is thinking about replacing the White House china. Since it´s missing a good part of the set due to having been accidentally loaded onto a certain U-Haul destined for Chappaqua there are probably not enough dishes left to accomodate a full dinner party.

By making a public media story out of that private phone call from President Trump addressing a national security related issue, Jimmy Carter has most likely ensured that he will never hear from Trump again.
