https://www.yahoo.com/news/donald-trump-ranked-worst-president-215700182.html

Nearly 200 of America's top political scientists have voted Donald Trump the worst president in US history.

According to the 2018 Presidents & Executive Politics Presidential Greatness Survey, Mr Trump ranks even lower than disgraced President Richard Nixon even among conservatives. Abraham Lincoln, unsurprisingly, takes the top prize. Mr Nixon sits at 33.

The study, conducted every four years, surveys social science researchers from the American Political Science Associations section on presidents and executive politics. It asks the experts to rank each presidents greatness on a scale of 0 to 100, with 100 being great, 50 being average, and 0 being a total failure.

Mr Trump averaged a score of 12.34, bumping James Buchanan the president who saw the US descend into the Civil War out of the bottom spot. The result comes just months after Trump finished his first year in office as the most unpopular president in modern history.


Welp.

Do you think
- we've had a Civil War or depression since Obama took office, or will have one in the near future as the result of his actions?
- that I like Obama?

The arrest and summary execution of all democratic members of congress by the Secret Service is probably more likely than Trump being impeached at this point.

The Secret Service are glorified bodyguards. They don't do assassinations, that's the CIA's thing.

Stupid. Dubya was much worse. The two wars he started will have to be dealt with far longer than anything Trump has thus far introduced (although give him 8 years and he might change that) octillery

Ostracizing all of our allies, destroying extremely important environmental protections, ruining the reputation of an entire party, actively destroying the economy, taking part in blatantly illegal favoritism towards his business, treason with one of the most antagonistic countries in the world, and now possibly setting back civil rights for decades with two awful Supreme Court appointments that are going to last far longer than anything W did, and that's just the tip of the iceberg.

Trump may maybe the WORST politician to ever be President. But as far as running this goes, hes probably the best.

Most people will disagree.

Hes running the USA like a boss. Shaking things up and getting things done.

He will probably go down as one of the best Presidents ever. But he won't be known for this till years later, probably after his death.

But, some people are so brain washed from main stream media.. until that brain washing wears off they won't notice anything GOOD that Trump as done.

For example. Trump is basically doing alot of the things DEMOCRATS gave been talking about doing for years and years. Now that Trump actually does it, its bad. And all the main stream media tries to tell people how to think about it.

This CRAP^... is why Trump is going to win an another term. People can see past the BS.
