Who else? Jimmy Carter.
This is the guy who:
Gave away the panama canal that americans paid and died to build, and it's now run by the communist Chinese.
Said he "lusted in his heart" when thinking about women other than his wife in an interview with playboy.
Allowed gas lines that ran around the block rather than deregulate the petroleum industry.
Said "America's best days are over" during his famous fireside chat speech.
Aided the fall of the Shah of Iran giving rise to Radical Islam in Iran, which eventually, as we know, led to the rise of terrorism.
Defunded and dismantled the CIA to the detriment of our ability to find data on our enemies today. This is another reason that lead to 9/11.
Gave aid and comfort to the terrorist Yassir Arafat, who subsequently refused any peace deal with Israel, because he wanted to steal all the "palestinian's" money.
Allowed the taking of hostages in Iran, where they were held for 444 days, while he weakly vascillated and made a feeble attempt at rescue via chopper. The choppers crashed and the pilots bodies were dragged through the streets.
He splashed a rabbit that he felt might be attacking him while on a fishing trip.
He asked his young daughter her advise on how to deal with Nuclear weapons.
Never met a dictator that he didn't adore. His favorite among them being Fidel Castro.
We could go on all day about America's most weak and ineffective president. It's no wonder that the American people elected Ronald Reagan.

Carter pardoned all Draft-Dodgers and Traitors.
He begged them to leave Sweden & Canada and come back "home".
But he didn't try to get our POWs back, even though we knew there were still some alive then.

Carter issued a general amnesty but Ford pardoned those who had been convicted of avoiding the draft and been punished for it

Carter did. It was the very first thing he did when he took office in 1977.
