Forty-four years elapsed between the time Jimmy Carter left the presidency and the day he died.

Many of the challenges facing America in 2024 are not that different from the ones he faced in the late 1970s .

The US during the Carter years faced a crisis of confidence and a range of challenges to US power abroad.

Public trust in his government to do the right thing at least "most of the time" was at 34% at the start of his presidency and dropped to 27% in March 1980 .

That number has climbed above 50% only once since Carter - in the month after the September 11, 2001 , attacks.

It is difficult to avoid comparisons between Carter and the most recent one -term president, Biden .
