Apparently, Jimmy Carter was on CNBC today and said he could have beaten Reagan if he was more manly.  Feminists are not gonna like this.  He was on with the host Tania Bryer.  She said, &#8220;Even your wife, Rosalynn, was encouraging you to take action against Iran,&#8221; back during the hostage crisis.  &#8220;Was it hard to not take everyone\u2019s advice around you, even your wife?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>CARTER:  Yes. Well, I could have been reelected if I had taken military action against Iran. It would have shown that I was strong and resolute and manly and so forth. But I think if I &#8211; I could have wiped Iran off the map with the weapons that we had, but in the process, a lot of innocent people would have been killed, probably including the hostages. And so I stood up against all that advice and then eventually my prayers were answered and every hostage came home safe and free. And so I think I made the right decision in retrospect, but it was not easy at the time.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"eZObject_96660\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/ReaganCarter.jpg\"\/><BR\/>RUSH:  Yeah, I could have been manly.
