Jimmy Carter, Peanut Farmer Who Reached White House, Dies at 100

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

70% : Carter attended the inauguration of Republican Donald Trump in 2017, the sixth and final presidential swearing-in he witnessed after leaving office.
59% : Carter "assembled a new front line on nearly every issue, with no inherited party game plan or ideological playbook to fall back on," Jonathan Alter wrote in a 2020 biography that painted him as often right in his instincts but flawed in executing government responses.
59% : Carter won praise after his presidency for the steps he had taken toward deregulation, particularly of the airline industry, where the removal of government control of fares and routes promoted competition.
54% : His allegiance to an inner moral compass, his vow to support societies that "share with us an abiding respect for individual human rights" and his tendency to speak his mind collided at times with political realities during his four years in office, from 1977 to 1981, and served as a preview of what was to come in a service-filled post-presidency that lasted decades.
32% : Days earlier, he had told congregants at his hometown church that of 22 voters in his family, none had voted for Trump.
24% : Trump "has never been involved in politics before," Carter explained, according to an account by Voice of America.
