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

Johnson Space Center in Houston is named after LBJ
Even as VP under JFK, Johnson was the lead in lobbying for the Space Program.
During Vietnam, while Congress tried to cut funding, Johnson fought for it.

LBJ got us to the Moon
Nixon took the credit
LBJ was not around when man landed on the moon.
Putting mission control 1500 miles from the action is asinine.

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, 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.

Literally your list could have been done without any explanation. Recent democracts the worst. Reagan the best, and the other Republicans the in betweeners.

Reagan set the US for the Taliban, Saddam, Iran, Venezuela, all the US's problems...
 
Just how many Americans did he allow to languish in the prisons of Iran, cause inflation, unemployment,

Not to mention singlehandedly create most of the Islamic terrorist problems of the twentieth century by supporting Khomeini’s ouster of the Shah. The Shah was a typical middle eastern dictator, but he kept his boot on the Islamic extremists’ necks.
 
1. Courage? He faked bone spurs that magically healed to avoid Vietnam. He’s a coward. You worship a coward. He doesn’t pick fights with people who kick his ass. Wait til Nikki Haley kicks his ass. Can’t wait.

2. He was accused of sexual harassment up until he was inaugurated. He screwed a porn star while his pregnant trophy wife hung out at home. He’s a dirt bag but you don’t care because he has an insult comic routine you love.

3. By your logic Jayz is qualified and Abraham Lincoln was not. Jayz is a Billionaire. Lincoln was a lawyer who never made any money.

4. Racists be racists

5. You ignored blowing up a hurricane and injecting disinfectant because you like that he is an insult comic. Hilarious. You’d vote for anyone displaying the level of contempt for others that you approve.
Posting again? You already lost. But concerning #3, President Trump had 50 highly successful years in business. 0bummer had nothing, did nothing. Nothing to offer the presidency. And that's why he was the worst of all time. I don't even think you can count the current president Nappy Pants. He doesn't know where he is.

Give Nappy a little credit. He did crap on the Pope

You already replied to this, lamely, so I see why you want to come back at it again. Trump filed for bankruptcy 6 times and never ran a successful business until he had a hit comedy show called the apprentice. He’s an entertainer. Jayz has more money and is a better entertainer. Let’s elect him! You still fail. What business of his is successful? And how do you know? Just cuz he says so?

So let's get this straight. He was a billionaire by the age of 40, but somehow wasn't a successful businessman? lol You can find numerous sources that says he's a billonaire. Forbes and Newsweek are two.

Kanye West is worth double Donald Trump. Guess he’s ready to be president.
 
As recoveries go, Obama created an immediate reversal in the Stock Market, Unemployment and GDP. Prevented a Depression

If he was allowed the economic stimulus he requested, recovery would have been faster. I do not consider 200,000+ jobs a month to be sluggish. Unlike other recent Presidents, he did not have an economic downturn during his Presidency
I will take steady economic growth

But, he played the hand he was dealt. Recovery was slow and steady over seven years. Trump picked up the same pace and bragged about it.

I told you my criteria twice already.
As each President faces different challenges. Each was rated on his own merit.

For reference, being impeached twice does not help your rating
So your list is

1) Different challenges
2) Own merits

?????????????

Are you taking the piss? Do you know what "Criteria" and "List" mean?

Obviously your president ranking is done by your prejudices.

As for Obama's race relations, he was the least qualified president -

Barack Obama legacy: Did he improve US race relations?

And although it was a presidency that began atop a mountain, it ended in something of a valley.

The silent recovery: how much longer can America’s long, slow boom last?

The subsequent recovery has been long but, by American standards, weak. Traditionally, the US has recovered sharply from downturns and had several years of fast growth.

It does not matter what you "feel" what Obama was allowed to have , he delivered a worse race divide and a sluggish recovery.

You need an unbiased criteria and subjective measures. You have neither, hence a shit thread.
 
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.
