Reagan "killed" Obama...by being placed one single solitary rank above him...out of 46?

Maybe Trump lost out because of personality.

Or his two impeachments in the same term, inciting a riot on the Capitol building, being caught lying about a global pandemic, shutting down the government for the longest time in U.S. history, making over 30,000 false statements, rolling back a slew of climate change initiatives, pulling out of the Paris Accord, siding with Russia over U.S. intelligence on national TV....

Oh wait, you were trying to be clever.

No, this isn't a Lib-Dem sham. Historians from both ends of the spectrum rank presidents on ten issues. The good news for Trump supporters: he's not dead last.

So is Lincoln, he was America's worst president. Lincoln thought he was going to be impeached when the civil war broke out and the bodies started piling up.
He should have been.

With good reason. Non-establishment types despise him. He was a terrible leader: Erratic, petulant, vindictive, and delusional. 400,000 people died on his watch; with proper health management at the federal level, it could have been a tenth of that. He will be remembered as America’s Caligula.

Everyone but the fruit bat right wing fringe hates trump but many Republican establishment types don’t have the ‘moral fortitude’ to admit it because they want to stay part of the establishment.
But apart from that your absolutely correct as usual 👍

I’d have put LBJ above Kennedy and Eisenhower but I’m not a yank so it probably doesn’t count.

Vietnam alone should put LBJ near the bottom. He escalated the war to a ridiculous level then ran away from the mess he put the country in and didn't run for reelection.

History is certainly not a right wing strongpoint.

There was zero possibility of Lincoln being impeached by the Republican Congress when the CSA traitors started the war and his conduct of that war, the most seminal threat to the US ever, rates him as one of our greatest Presidents with only FDR as serious competition.
