Answer D perhaps best describes Carter's ability to pass laws in Congress. Carter was critical of Congress before and during his presidency and resisted cashing in political favours. As a result, his relationship with and connections in Congress suffered, and many of his ideas were not given support. This is particularly evident in his clashes with the Speaker of the House.
