Buchanan's leadership during his lame duck period, before the American Civil War, has been widely criticized. He simultaneously angered the North by not stopping secession, and the South by not yielding to their demands. He supported the Corwin Amendment in an effort to reconcile the country, but it was too little, too late. He made an unsuccessful attempt to reinforce Fort Sumter, but otherwise refrained from preparing the military. His failure to forestall the Civil War has been described as incompetency, and he spent his last years defending his reputation.

Ah, so that's it. President Buchanan was the dude who could've prevented the Civil War but was too incompetent to do it.

Ah, smells like desperation.

Joe Brandon is the worst president in American history, and it's only going to get worse.

I suppose it depends on who you believe. I mean, you can find numerous sources on both Buchanan and Lincoln. Some will even argue that it was Lincoln that took that title.

Fake news .. trump won 84% of the counties in an America.. Biden 14% lol

It's amazing how much the press still hates Trump. He was a wonderful president, he accomplished a LOT during his four years in office. He SHOULD still be president. The obvious cheating by Biden - multiple voting by one person, dead people voting, and ballot harvesting most likely ran rampant. Trump would be in my Top 10 as BEST U.S. president ever. My worst list would include Andrew Johnson, Lyndon Johnson, and Obama for my bottom three.

Already a thread on this, and the list is obviously incoherent.
Trump is one step away from Buchanan? The man many scholars say caused the Civil War?
Harding #6??... the man who literally gambled on the outcome of his policies?

The only reason Trump is even on the list is because the people deciding want him to be there.

No, Buffy.

The question is: "How did Buchanan beat trump in the worst president rankings?"

 

[Canon Shooter]

It's a seriously flawed poll.

"President George W. Bush, who had previously ranked 11th-worst in the last iterations of the U.S. News rankings, was remembered more fondly by recent presidential surveys. He ranked 15th-worst, just ahead of James A. Garfield and Martin Van Buren."

So, Bush II used to be #11, and now he's #15? How could that happen in there have only been two former Presidents (Obama and Trump) added to the mix?

For recent presidents, opinions change as time pass and people die.

That's why it's easier to rank Lincoln than Obama.

Possibly because any such list is by its very nature subjective bullshit?

Obama should have been on the list.

Obama and Biden but the pollsters most likely can't spell their names, dumb asses that they are.

 

[TroglocratsRdumb]

#1 Obama
#2 Obama 2.0 (Biden)

Of course, which is exactly why the poll is flawed. There's nothing concrete about it. Put enough idiot libs in a room and sooner or later they'll rank Carter as the best President we've ever had...

Because he was President just before the Civil War broke out.

James Buchanan | The White House

James Buchanan, the 15th President of the United States (1857-1861), served immediately prior to the American Civil War. He remains the only President to be elected from Pennsylvania and to remain a lifelong bachelor.

IMO William Henry Harrison should be #1

He died in office before he could fuck anything up.
