About this episode

The episode compares Donald Trump to Jimmy Carter, highlighting the differences in their political actions and moral standings.

Tonight on The Joy Reid Show, history doesn't repeat, but it sure does rhyme, huh? Now it may shock and confuse you to hear Jimmy Carter and Donald Trump in any way compared, but hear us out! Because the parallels between now and the late 1970s/early 1980s are more numerous than you may think! Only where Jimmy Carter did his best to do good, Trump is doing his best to do complete and unfettered evil.
