Shittiest list by far

They literally toss Obama on that list out of fear of being labeled a racist. The guy was an absolute horror show.

Let’s see, he signed off on the federal reserve being started and set the foundation for the modern American aristocracy we know and love as the deep states today. That and he set the precedent for American intervention into wars we have no business being involved with to make the “world safe for democracy.” Guy was a turd.

If you're a right-winger:
>Signed Federal Reserve Act
>Jailed German citizens for being German citizens
>Instituted wartime rationing for a dubious war

If you're a left-winger:
>Jailed suffragettes for exercising their first amendment rights
>Got the US involved in a dubious war
>Enforced and expanded the Alien & Sedition Acts to ridiculous levels
>Signed prohibition into law, ushering in a decade and a half of growing violence
>Fucked over Marijuana legalization

It's a testament to how transparently kike-infested Presidential analysts are that he's ever on anybody's best President's list.

>t. mongolian mutt

>18. Andrew Jackson
I want to kill them all.

Both bushes

...

1. JFK
2. Trump
3....
45. Obonga Hussien Osama

Yeah. Kill yourself, scum of the earth

JFK was not that good. He was a barely tolerable president and the only good thing he had ever done was begin investigating the deep state, avoiding nuclear war with russia, avoiding war with cuba, and starting the space race.

So what is the criteria they’re using to rank these presidents? Bill clinton’s biggest accomplishment was cheating on his wife with an inten in the Oval Office and Obama’s was being married to a tranny.

sorry
>t. refugee ahmed

HW's nickname in Skull and Bones was Magog...

>only good thing
>avoiding nuclear war with russia

>JFK wasn’t that good

???

Lincoln

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Northwoods

Fuck off cancuck nigger. You don't know shit about american history. Trump doesn't mean shit until he attacks the fed and starts to trash the CIA. Kennedy knowingly signed a gunshot to the head for the sake of my country. Your faggot leaf uk province can burn in hell.

JFK was absolute shit, the only reasons we care about him is because he was killed and the media had made a cult around him, he was Obama 1.0 and he was by far one of the worst presidents we had, he was so high all the fucking time he nearly got us into nuclear war with russia multiple times

>no richard nixon
based nix did nothing wrong

reddit approves of this post

What did Obama actually do other than be black and not be Bush?

Serious question.

Nah slavery was terrible it brought all those africans to America so to stop the practice and make it illegal to bring more was a great first step, but he would have been much better if he had followed through with the second step of his plan, shipping them all back to Africa

Seceding would have been terrible and would have resulted in a weaker western world and Communism probably would have taken over.

>FDR
>LBJ
>WW

lmfao

literally my top 3 worst presidents ever. i mean the list was obviously shit to begin with, but come on.

>Lincoln was the best President
I love how they would never be able to list anything he actually did other than "freeing the slaves".

He was more of a rabbi than a president

Lincoln started the fucking civil war and encouraged scorched earth tactics on american soil. The man who was the cause of 500,000 american deaths because he couldn't fucking negotiate. He's not even in the top 30.

Racial tension rose to its highest point since the 60's under him. His economic policies are literally going to kill us in the near future and Trump will be getting the blame because that's how the news will spin it.

Anyone who puts woodrow willson on a list is a retard or has a agenda. he even said after he got out he probably just fucked the US.

Kennedy fucked Portugal, Rhodesia and South Africa for the niggers and was allied with the communists there, headshot well deserved.

he put us 10 trillion into debt, passed the abortion that is Obamacare as well as DACA and a ton of other shit

Obama was actually quite adept at making shit happen but it was mostly executive orders so thankfully it's all being reversed. He was also really good at breaking the social fabric of America and to make society the most racial tense since the 1960s

When did Lincoln surpass Washington??

You killed her brother too. Take some responsibility, you are the evil of the world. The vehicle through which Satan enters the world.

regan kept all the wetbacks

Why is the worst president number one

Sorry, we really wish we would've gotten the rest of them finland but we're really losing our edge.

>I love how they would never be able to list anything he actually did other than "freeing the slaves".
Freeing the slaves was nowhere near as important as preserving the Union, and as far as his politics he was very conservative and pro-religion, the biggest blight on his presidency is the suspension of Habeas Corpus and he opened the door to the Federal government really fucking up States when it came to their rights, so that's why I only put him at 8 on my list

George Washington is the greatest American to have ever lived

>Below Lincoln

Fucking niggers lol

Lol yeah that’s the light version. I mean, why do people think he was a good president?

I'm unaware of his involvement, if any, with south africa. What i have researched is his attack on US Intel agencies and his view on my governments civil service.

1. Andrew Jackson
2. Donald Trump
3. Ronald Reagan


45. obama

yet they still lost lmao

LBJ was worst, sworn in by coupe de tat. Clinton's only success was because Newt Gingrich was a phenomenol Speaker of House, the real reason the economy boomed. Obama would be worst except he was never President. All Barry's actions are null and void.

Top 5:
1) Washington
2) Jefferson
3) Andrew Jackson
4) Lincoln
5) FDR

Pres. Trump may earn a legacy in the top 2.

He said "nice" things from time to time and dropped a mic

Ur fuckin retarded you know that? Lincoln was ready to enshrine slavery not the constitution to kee the Union together, open a fuckingn history book Lincoln was probably one of the worst presidents ever

20. George H. W. Bush
>tried to kill reagan, warmongerer
19. John Adams

18. Andrew Jackson

17. James Madison

16. William McKinley Jr.

15. Bill Clinton
>rapist

14. James K. Polk

13. James Monroe

12. Barack Obama
>racist, assassinated american citizens, warmongerer, stacked courts with retards
11. Woodrow Wilson
>warmongerer, racist
10. Lyndon B. Johnson
>killed kennedy, gave niggers the vote
9. Ronald Reagan

8. John F. Kennedy
>bay of pigs illegal invasion, almost destroyed world, assassinated south vietnam's president, vietnam war

7. Thomas Jefferson

6. Harry S. Truman
>dropped nuke on 300,000 japanese despite war being over, warcrimes

5. Dwight D. Eisenhower

4. Theodore Roosevelt

3. Franklin D. Roosevelt
>tried to stack supreme court to strangle country with his failing socialist policies
>warmongerer who locked up pacifists, chinese citizens, and was the only president greedy enough to do 4 terms

2. George Washington

1. Abraham Lincoln
>destroyed the country through war
>destroyed the future of the country through nigger infestation

wow great list, great presidents, great experts

Worthless - the opinion of a bunch of Marxists

Obama is not the worst President America has ever had

Warren Harding was the worst, no doubt. James Buchanan and Ulysses S Grant are definitely top 5 worst Presidents material.

Obama probably ranks 5th on the list. Jimmy Carter edges him out in 4th position just because even though he would have dreamed to achieve what Obama wanted to, he was ultimately so useless and damaging to America that his inaction was even worse than Obama's actions.

>Nice nice nice. Dropping 2 atom bombs and killing hundreds of thousands in other bombings must not have been considered here? Typical of am*Rican scum. Fuck all American presidents from Washington to Trump.


The Communist killed over 100,000,000 people in 75 years. Study history commie

>that leftist bias

Wew


That's a fucking terrible list.

>No Jackson or Teddy
>Youre serious

Nationalized the student loan creation mechanism and used it to make college and grad students pay for Obamacare. Those loans can never be discharged and the government has far more numerous methods to induce payment than the private sector ever did.

>Ur fuckin retarded you know that? Lincoln was ready to enshrine slavery not the constitution to kee the Union together, open a fuckingn history book Lincoln was probably one of the worst presidents ever
He was an abolitionist his whole life, don't be ridiculous. The whole situation with the Corwin Amendment was that it passed in a couple of States before he was even president, and at this point he believed it was an issue of states' rights and he wouldn't go against the decision if the States were to ratify it in a constitutional convention

That doesn't mean he was happy with it and he was attacked at the time as obviously an abolitionist and completely against it personally

Trump's biggest accomplishment is what?

He signed a Tax Cut that blows a $1.2 TRILLION hole in the deficit for Coporations?

As far as major policy, that's it.

He might be able to improve his standing, but in 100 years "LIBTARDZ R BUTTHURT" isn't a quantifier. They'll be reading about Russia collusion etc.

woodrow wilson was objectively the worst, followed by FDR then LBJ. After that, its debateable. I dont think obama hits top 5 but hes top 10 for sure.

How does HW Bush get a top 20? WTF? Just for a little war? He got btfo by Clinton and had an uprising by his own party with Perot. At least Obama is only 12 in this not 8 like in the survey that put Trump last which is disgusting.

theyll be reading about how trump destroyed propaganda networks disguised as media

no one gives a shit about muh russia

over half of those are garbage

how is obama even top half of US pres'?

Lol, Abraham Lincoln freed the slaves without firsts figuring out how to get rid of them and caused most of the problems our country has today. He was the single worst president of all time.

Some liberal crap that got repealed and took us out of Great Depression 2, people hate on Obama but come on its sorta impressive.

This

The effect of Trump's presence has done more good for this country that some shitty policies which get executive order repeal. We have a demand now to:

1) reform the failing FBI
2) understand the enormity of election manipulations
3) know what foreign countries did
4) wake people up to mass shootings being a cause of an incompetent justice system
5) pizzagate maybe
6) #metoo

Also a great economy and loads of small changes such as pulling us out of TPP and Paris Accord increasing middle class jobs.

Tax cuts raising salaries and bonuses.

Infrastructure that we needed will be coming soon because both sides wanted it.

I am not a communist. I'm a 100% Finnish, non-communist far-right man.

>theyll be reading about how trump destroyed propaganda networks disguised as media

What? His whole gimmick is that he TWEETS.
Do you know what Twitter is, and why its owner cant' sell it?

>no one gives a shit about muh russia

Then why are their indictments & pleas? MUH RUSSIA will be the Trump story...because outside of that he's just GOP boilerplate by a GOP Congress voted to be anti-black President.

You forgot to tell me what Trump has accomplished. Faggots like you jerking off about butthurt liberals...in 100 years you'll be dead too. Pepe the frog will be on Trump's wikipedia page and people will be like .. "wow, people were dumb as shit..."

LOL. You think the President is a PROM QUEEN.

Grow up.

>Woodrow "federal reserve and WWI" Wilson not the 2nd or 1st worst
>Clinton higher than Jackson and James Madison
>Obama on the list at all
>No Coolidge

Is it really that easy to be a "political scientist"?

He was the media's darling. End.
The media is able to influence what just about half the population "thinks". If the media wants half the country to hate you - they can do that.

The media is dangerously close to being more powerful than our actual governments thanks to centralization of media companies being used to collectively push propaganda without any room for other opinions or voices.

...

>Abraham Lincoln

jesus did some kike write this shit?

this list is fucking garbage. this is like black panther reviews tier.
>muh niggers

Because if you know anything about American history it's easy.

Faggots like you didn't hate Obama because he did nothing, you hated him because he actually did shit that triggered you.

the best thing lincoln did was get shot in the head.

Trump shouldn't be in any list until he's completed his 1-2 terms

He was a real people person.

Only he didn't get shot in the head. He was shot in the chest and lived for 3 days after. Stay mad southfag.

Obama was a rubber stamp for 6 years in a Republican controlled Congress. He vetoed one bill.

The only thing he "did" was in the first 2 years of his presidency before becoming one of the worst lame duck presidents ever. Now i actually rate Onigger quite highly since he did very little of substance. There's security in the Federal Govt on slow burn especially with legislation. Onigger tried to consolidate Executive power which is fucking hilarious that Trump will be making the history books as the guy who rolled back that power. History smiles kindly on those who give up power. A Washingtonian move.

Bottom 12 list:

George W. Bush 33
Martin Van Buren 34
Chester Arthur 35
Herbert Hoover 36
Millard Fillmore 37
William Henry Harrison 38
John Tyler 39
Warren G. Harding 40
Franklin Pierce 41
Andrew Johnson 42 42
Richard Nixon 43
Donald J Trump 44

According to the sane analysts

i never see any libshits who talk about how obongo abused executive powers

he really was a movie star to them

Based coolidge

...

He coined the notion of the Constitution being a "living document" that can be changed by interpretation.

ofc this is why these "historians" released a list before Trump is yet over half way through his first term.

It's why no one with merit will take it seriously and it actually does a disservice to any actual Historian who signed off on this garbage. I would be surprised if it was from actual working historians.

Seriously.

No phase out, no buyback. Destroy your economy, then burn your farms.

>Ronald Reagan over Jefferson
>no Jackson

Name the historians faggot fuck

CSPAN just said it was 100 historians who participated in their poll
