Best and Worst Presidents of My Lifetime. Mashmont Rates Them.

NOT to teabaggers ans Q-NUTS.
They believe their dear leader.

2018
The US president addressed supporters at a Veterans of Foreign Wars convention in Kansas City on 24 July, requesting them to not listen to what they read or saw in the news.

“Just stick with us, don’t believe the crap you see from these people, the fake news,” Mr Trump said as the crowd erupted in boos. He later added: “Just remember, what you’re seeing and what you’re reading is not what’s happening…”
Not to anyone with a brain.
 
Ronald Reagan Gave massive tax cuts in his first term which led to a huge recession, The worst recession at its time since the great depression, And then walked back the tax cuts but only on the poor and working class. So in the end the wealthy And corporations got a huge tax cuts and the working class ended up paying double.
tax cuts led to a recession?

You can make yourself believe anything you want, can't you?

This thread has worn very well. Trump continues to have been proven right on every one of his claims. He's also right about the stolen election. Ultimately we will all discover that. But time is proving Trump was among the greatest presidents of all time. And Biden has proven to be probably the worst most abject incompetent senile president in history.

Ladies and gentlemen, I have had the exhilarating experience of living under two of the greatest presidents in American history, and four of the worst most abject presidents, if you can even call them presidents.

THE BEST:
Ronald Reagan was iconic, and certainly among the top five or six best in history. I wasn't sure it could get much better than him. But then of course we were blessed with the greatest of all time, President Donald J. Trump. This man not only accomplished a great deal in his first term, but he totally smashed the fear-and-PC culture instituted by the Marxist left that cows all the other politicians. Trump was immune to fear. He was the most courageous, able, and well-qualified presidential candidate in American history, and he is arguably the GOAT. Certainly in the top three. But I say, probably number one. And once his second term is completed, he's almost assuredly in the top spot by most people's reckoning.

THE WORST:

And now we go to the bad. Incredibly I have lived (suffered) through four of the worst five presidents of all time. Carter, Clinton, 0bama, and now Nappy Joe, each worst than the last. You never think that's possible, but then it is. Carter was just plain incompetent. He mouthed Christianity, but didn't practice it. Clinton brought shame and immorality and incompetence to the Oval Office with his constant affairs and philandering all hours of the night. His inattention caused 9-11. Clinton embarrassed the US, and does so to this day. 0bummer was the least qualified candidate in American history. No work record. No record of achievement. Elected solely because he was black. Not qualified to shine shoes in D.C. Completely incompetent on how to govern or lead. America fell WAY down with this professional Marxist intentionally leading the decline. Last is Depends Biden. I shouldn't even have him on the list since he was not legitimately elected. Can't find his ass with both hands, let alone govern. He simply doesn't know where he is. The problem is, he was an incompetent arrogant buffoon even BEFORE he became a senile vegetable. Unfortunately, now he is a grave danger to the safety of this country.

IN BETWEEN:

The two Bushes were above average. George H.W. Bush was very good in war, but his weakness was in cooperating with the Democrats on taxes, then not seeing their plan to use it against him. George W. Bush was very good in two important areas. The man knew how to build and lead an economy, which he did for six years until the Democrat Congress pissed it all away and led us to the Great Recession. Bush also protected the US in a very dangerous time. His problem is he allowed himself to get buried by the leftwing media. He didn't fight back. He was ever the 'gentleman', and as a result founded himself polling in the 20s. Bush's problem is he believed the lying deep-state "Intel" that told him Saddam had magically gotten rid of his WMD. He also didn't control the border. Today, he undermines the great President Trump, because he is upset Trump beat up on Jeb and Liz Cheney.
Ford was slightly better than average, but was a moderate. Not strong enough on abortion. Not around long enough to do anything but be a place holder.
Nixon was below average NOT because of Watergate, but because of his creation of the disastrous EPA and environmental (anti-capitalist) laws, and his caving to the left on an array of other legislation.
LBJ was horrible. Near the bottom. Perhaps a bottom sixer. I probably should have put him in the crowded 'worst' category. Wasted billions of dollars on Marxist programs that never worked, grossly expanded the welfare state, and began the flood of illegals we have to this day.
JFK was a Democrat, but he was more conservative than many Republicans of today. Strong against Communism. This was back when some Democrats still loved America, before they went completely nuts and became a party that would be unrecognizable to Kennedy. But JFK won because of a stolen election and was incompetent and immoral. For those reasons, he was below average.
I was around for a little of Ike. Not much. He was above average. Led America during the greatest decade of our existence morally.
Oh, man. Did Mash call this one! Three years ago:
How is it I knew in early 2022 Biden had dementia when the leftwing media only discovered it last June?
 
That’s higher than Biden ever was, and just three points lower than Obama’s average approval rating and higher than Jimmy Carter’s best.

Don’t you get a little tired of posting bullshit all the time?

This was 4 years ago:

 
He is at 45% and plummetting.
Yeah... and polls were ssssssooooo reliable in the run-up to the 2016 and 2024 elections, too, right? :itsok:

Trump doesn't have to worry about getting re-elected... he's pruning back Federal Gubmint, and that's gonna get painful.

The People at-large understand that, I expect.

Here's how I rate the presidents of my lifetime.

1. Reagan - like it or not, he was probably the most effective president of my lifetime. He brought the country out of the Malaise of the 1970's, beat inflation, and turned around the economy. On the downside, he laid the seeds for perpetual debt and damaged the unionized middle class. The thing is, Reagan was a lot more moderate than people like to remember him.

2. LBJ - despite Vietnam, he fundamentally transformed the US on the fronts of civil rights and social welfare.

3. Obama - Give the man credit where credit is due; he inherited an economy that was a mess and turned it around. Effectively ended the Iraq War, which was stupid. Rebuilt our credibility around the world.

4. Biden - History will be very kind to Biden, contrasting with how badly Trump fucked up everything and then was allowed to do it again.

5. JFK- Really kind of overrated. Credit for not blowing up the world in the Cuban Missile Crisis, I guess.

6. Bush Senior - showed solid leadership in resolving the banking crisis. I give him some credit for being a strong leader in the Gulf War, but I think the Gulf War never should have happened to start with.

7. Clinton- Good economic times marred by constant corruption.

8. Ford was a decent caretaker, the biggest mistake was setting the precedent of using the pardon power to protect criminal presidents and their lackeys.

9 Carter - Weak and Feckless. Good man personally, but never cut out to be president.

10. Dubya Bush - inherited a good economy, brought us two recessions, two wars, and managed to lose a major city.

11. Nixon - Could have been a great president, but his flaws led to Watergate. His handling of Vietnam makes him a war criminal.

12. Trump - Let's see, worst Plague in 100 years, worst recession in 80 years. Worst riots in 50 years. Has turned the government into a daily clown show and undermined the foundation of democracy worse than Nixon ever did. And we aren't even past the worst of it yet.
