Jimmy Carter Explains Why Trump Won and Hints at What We Can Do to Stop It (Original Post) thomhartmann Jun 2017 OP
I don't see Jimmy Carter in that video. It's deceptive. It's some other guy talking and talking... Honeycombe8 Jun 2017 #1
'Some other guy' is Tom Hartmann, elleng Jun 2017 #2
I'll just look up what Carter said. I don't need a 5 min. intro by some guy. nt Honeycombe8 Jun 2017 #3

IMO MOST really should listen to Thom Hartmann (even tho I haven't always agreed with him, which is no big deal.)

I wonder, is Hartmann still working for RT? Does he still rip off his listeners by selling ad time to anyone, including the gold ripoff artists whose scripts he reads? It's really sad that so many people, even here on DU, think the guy is "smart" and "knows history" when his knowledge of history is so basic, slanted and, in most cases, just wrong. At least it was years ago when I listened to a few of his shows.

You worry me. He sells gold and is on RT. So what?

"Even here on DU"

Yeah, I still think he's smart. I'm the same as I've always been. I have not changed. He's the Brunch with Bernie guy since pre 2006. What has changed? It ain't me. It ain't him. It ain't Carter....FUCK

of Hartmann's connection to RT. I listen to him from time to time on XM in my car but I get weary of the set up debate performances he does on the show. He does the same schtick day after day.
