Jimmy Carter said, a powerful China is good for the USA.

Jimmy Carter also said that, China is NOT a threat to the USA.

Jimmy Carter also said that, he believe that if a person looks at his eyes, then the person is NOT going to lie to him.

So I believe he is a very stupid man.

Try not to be embarrassed by this. Many people these days don't understand complex subjects and end up making asinine statements like this. Blame your government for the education system!

When did he say this? As MigL said, context matters.

Also, are these exact quotes, or are you changing the message by paraphrasing?

There's a good reason to say that, a balanced world needs both sides to be an effective coin.

He probably didn't say that, bc it makes no sense given the first statement; a common enemy at the gate is how China is good for US.

That's a twisted interpretation of the common myth that we can see when a person is lying.

The stupid man just believes what he reads, a wise man also asks his wife... 😉

Oh good! Threads like this are like a stranger walking into a restaurant, pulling down their pants, and taking a giant steaming dump on the floor just so they can have some kicks. They walk away, get some distance, then turn around to watch and laugh at the way people freak out and gasp and the brown dookie they deposited by hostess stand without ever planning to return or engage.

In 2014:

"China’s rising success in the world isn’t a threat to the United States, former U.S. President Jimmy Carter said in a speech in Shanghai to mark the 35th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic ties between the two countries this year."

China’s rising economic success in the world isn’t a threat to the United States, that may be true but only in isolation from other facts about China, e.g. it being a totalitarian surveillance society that seeks to diminish liberal democracy in the world and ensnare developing countries in a web of debt obligations and political debts via its Belt and Road initiative, which may also prove a Trojan Horse for military expansion.  Also, brutal repression and ethnic cleansing - Uighurs, Tibetans, et al.  

So, yeah, affordable appliances here may not be a direct threat, and help a squeezed middle class pay the bills, but that doesn't mean China's humming factory floor was developed out of pure altruism for the world's working class

Context would be nice.   And, because I occasionally enjoy being a dick, don't "context," and "time and circumstances" mean the same thing thus rendering that second clause redundant?  🙂

"Context of the quote' refers to the rest of the speech embedding the quote.
"Times and circumstances when it was made' refers to a time and situation/place.

Did you enjoy that ? 😄 
( sorry, couldn't resist )

Indeed, but every so often that 'giant steaming turd' is all sparkily and golden coloured; let him have his little giggle, he can't be expected understand what sparkles are...

That sounds awfully American...

Anyway you are NOT a smart person.

There is NO way to prove he was right.

He is a famous dumb.

Your President are NOT smart.

You also are NOT smart.

After 20 years, a few people will care who is the President of the USA.

Well, you are right that a few people will care. Some enough to make random posts on social media.
