It seems like these have been popping up in my feed since he died. Not political stuff just pics or videos of him being a gear head.

I’ve seen black and white pics of him on an early Honda tail 110? riding friends.

Ive seen video of him working on an engine in a garage.

And more.

Here’s something I found interesting…

Hmmm, who’d-a known?

I bet it was real.

He made a big impact with Habitat for Humanity. He did a lot to help families in need get a house. And a lot of those houses he worked on building.

An honest guy that like honest Harry Truman, didn't jive well with a corrupt Democrat party and didn't last.

Dealing with slimeballs like Joe Biden, Joe Kennedy Sr, Congressman LBJ and the like, a party of shit birds they held their nose and dealt with.

Ya can't get a legit, honest man to cheat.

Being he was a nuclear submariner, I'm pretty sure he was mechanically competent and had the toys in his youth.
Successful farmer and being mechanically competent has to be essential I'd wager.

Habitat for Humanity he not only slugged nails but often ran the crews.

Do some research into Rosalne Carters relationship with Jim Jones

Wow, who knew? He used to go to Sebring for the 12 hour and record audio of the cars and sold the records. I wonder if he partied in the bog?

Billy Beer, the fillin’ station, Miss Lillian,, it was an interesting time, but America felt bad about itself.

His VP Mondale ran in the next election and got his balls cut off when he ran on a “oh yes, we’ll raise taxes” platform.
Democrats still do that but now they gaslight it with deflection and finger pointing and flat out lying.

I remember this seemed to seal the deal for Reagan.

My first bike was the same Honda C110 50cc. Dad bobbed the rear fender, put an off road fender on the front and a header exhaust. Such a simpler time. Loved that push rod bike.

Mondale wanted the stage lights turned brighter thinking it would make Reagan look old and bad.
Show Biz Reagan knew better and immediately agreed to it.
The Gipper looked even better and Mondale looked like a Bassett Hound.

Carter funeral arrangements back up your post. Jimmy made the arrangements personally. No matter what your politics or opinion of President Carter the man had NOTHING IN COMMON with Biden.
