@drdrang Okay, here's my hot take: EVERY US president has blood on their hands, because THE OFFICE was designed from the outset to run an imperial murder machine. (Because that's what the US colonies were, from the outset—the frontier of an expanding empire—and then it inherited the British empire after 1945.)

Carter gets credit for doing good works along the way, but it's like praising Marcus Aurelius for not being Caligula: yes, but they were both Roman emperors and crucified their enemies.
