Jimmy Carter being set to lie in state on Tuesday was not enough to protect him from Donald Trump’s rage. The president-elect—as just part of a complaint-laden screed—slammed Carter in a news conference over his decades-old decision to relinquish control of the Panama Canal to Panama.

President-elect Donald Trump on Sunday said the nation owes former President Jimmy Carter “a debt of gratitude.” In a post on his Truth Social platform, Trump said the 39th president,

After calling Biden the worst U.S. president in history, he said that "Jimmy Carter is the happiest man because Jimmy Carter is considered a brilliant president by comparison."

Donald Trump raged online over flags in the capital being flown at half-mast during his inauguration to mourn the passing of Jimmy Carter.

On Tuesday, Carter's body will be flown from Atlanta to Joint Base Andrews in Maryland, where his casket will be transferred with ceremony to a hearse. From there, a motorcade will proceed to the U.S. Navy Memorial, where his casket will then be transferred from a hearse to a horse-drawn caisson with ceremony.
