OSAKA/WASHINGTON: When asked if he thinks that Donald Trump is an “illegitimate president” on Friday, former President Jimmy Carter said, “yes”. During a panel on human rights at the Carter Center in Virginia, the former president criticized Trump on how he handled Russia’s interference in the 2016 election, saying, “The president himself should condemn it, admit that it happened, which I think 16 intelligence agencies have already agreed to say.”

On Saturday, at a news conference after the G-20 summit in Japan, Trump responded: “Look, he was a nice man. He was a terrible president. He’s a Democrat. And it’s a typical talking point.” Trump continued, “He’s loyal to the Democrats. And I guess you should be. As everybody now understands, I won not because of Russia, not because of anybody but myself.” Never one to take the high road, Trump went into full attack mode saying Carter has “been badly trashed. He’s like the forgotten president. And I understand why they say that. He was not a good president.”
