One of the most significant events that hurt Jimmy Carter's presidency was the Iran Hostage Crisis, which began in November 1979 when 52 American diplomats and citizens were taken hostage by Iranian militants. The crisis lasted 444 days and was characterized by a perceived inability of the Carter administration to resolve the situation, which contributed to a decline in public confidence. Additionally, the economic challenges of high inflation and unemployment during this period further weakened his presidency and affected his re-election campaign in 1980.
It eroded their trust in President Jimmy Carter and helped Ronald Reagan get elected.
