Answer:

Jimmy Carter describes the two past Republican Administrations in a very negative light.

Step-by-step explanation:

He characterizes them as corrupt and overbearing, as administrations that took government powers too far, farther than constitutional limits allow. Carter also says that these two governments betrayed the trust that the people placed in them.

He probably said so, not only because he belonged to a different political party, and politics are always adversarial, but also because of Nixon's Watergate Scandal, and Gerald Ford's pardon of him.
