President Trump tweeted a friendly shout-out to former president Jimmy Carter for a week-old interview Saturday morning.

“Just read the nice remarks by President Jimmy Carter about me and how badly I am treated by the press (Fake News). Thank you Mr. President!,” Trump wrote at 8:28 a.m.

It appears Trump was finally catching up with Carter’s Oct. 21 interview in The New York Times.

“I think the media have been harder on Trump than any other president certainly that I’ve known about,” Carter said. “I think they feel free to claim that Trump is mentally deranged and everything else without hesitation.”

Carter used the interview to lobby Trump into naming him as an envoy to North Korea to negotiate with Kim Jong-Un and defuse tensions between his regime and the United States.

Trump tweeted before heading to his Trump National Golf Club in Sterling, Va.

In the interview with Times columnist Maureen Dowd, Carter had even harsher words for fellow ex-president Barack Obama, complaining about his drone campaigns against Yemen and his failure to make peace in the Middle East.

Obama “made some very wonderful statements, in my opinion, when he first got in office,” Carter said, “and then he reneged on that.”
