Isn’t it almost impossible to believe that the same nation which elected Jimmy Carter to its highest office also bestowed that honor upon Donald Trump?  Not surprisingly, it seems the Carter presidency was the aberration, much as some of us would like to hope Trump’s was the step outside the norms of America’s political reality.
