‘I give my highest respect’: Trump comments on death of former President Jimmy Carter

Former President Jimmy Carter’s death over the weekend elicited responses from several prominent figures, including two statements from President-elect Donald Trump.

Trump commented on the passing of the country’s 39th president in two Truth Social posts. Carter, 100, died on Sunday at his home in Plains, Georgia.

“I just heard of the news about the passing of President Jimmy Carter. Those of us who have been fortunate to have served as President understand this is a very exclusive club, and only we can relate to the enormous responsibility of leading the Greatest Nation in History,” Trump’s initial Truth Social post said.

“The challenges Jimmy faced as President came at a pivotal time for our country and he did everything in his power to improve the lives of all Americans. For that, we all owe him a debt of gratitude.”

‘He truly loved and respected our Country’

An hour after Trump’s initial statement, he shared another post on Truth Social saying, “President Jimmy Carter is dead at 100 years of age. While I strongly disagreed with him philosophically and politically, I also realized that he truly loved and respected our Country, and all it stands for.”
