According to Dan Rather, [https://steady.substack.com/p/jimmy-carter-1924-2024 Jimmy Carter was "a man of honesty.]" Carter's response to Reagan's victory in 1980 was to concoct the "October surprise" theory. See "[https://anncoulter.com/2020/11/18/gee-why-cant-trump-accept-defeat-like-the-democrats/ Gee, Why Can’t Trump Accept Defeat Like the Democrats?]" The idea that we were running out of oil and everything else in ten years was a major theme of Carter's presidency.

According to Dan Rather, [https://steady.substack.com/p/jimmy-carter-1924-2024 Jimmy Carter was "a man of honesty.]" Carter's response to Reagan's victory in 1980 was to claim that Reagan won by conspiring to delay the release of the hostages held in Iran. This ludicrous "October surprise" theory obsessed the American political class for years and years. See "[https://anncoulter.com/2020/11/18/gee-why-cant-trump-accept-defeat-like-the-democrats/ Gee, Why Can’t Trump Accept Defeat Like the Democrats?]" Another major theme of the Carter presidency was the claim that we would run out of oil and everything else in ten years time.
