Presidential Rankings........Obama: Tenth......Trump: last

Looks like Trump has nowhere to go but up

Opinion | How Does Trump Stack Up Against the Best — and Worst — Presidents?

Since our previous survey in 2014, some presidential legacies have soared (Barack Obama’s stock has climbed into the Top 10), while others have fallen (Andrew Jackson toppled to 15, out of the Top 10).

And President Trump? Let’s say that, according to the 170 members of the American Political Science Association’s Presidents and Executive Politics section who filled out our survey, he has at least three years to improve on an ignominious debut.

Obama moves up to 8th - Let the caterwauling begin! :eusa_dance:

President Trump came in last place in an expert ranking of "presidential greatness," according to the 2018 Presidents & Executive Politics Presidential Greatness Survey released by Boise State University Monday.

The survey was conducted among 170 current and recent members of the Presidents & Executive Politics Section of the American Political Science Association, which is a group of scholars dedicated to studying the American presidency.

These experts were asked to rank each president on a scale from zero (worst) to 100 (best) based on their overall performance in office. With this, Mr. Trump came in last place with an average score of 12.34.

Even among Republican respondents, Mr. Trump still ranked extremely low, earning the 40th spot for presidential greatness. These Republicans labeled James Buchanan -- whose presidency saw the secession of seven states before the Civil War -- as the all-time worst and George Washington as the best.

Coming in first place is Abraham Lincoln, who scored an average of 95.03 between both Democrats and Republicans surveyed. The top seven presidents have remained the same since the poll was last conducted in 2014: Lincoln, George Washington, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, Theodore Roosevelt, Thomas Jefferson, Harry Truman, and Dwight D. Eisenhower.

In this round of questioning, former president Barack Obama moved up in the rankings to 8th best president, whereas in 2014 he came in at 18th. Scholars identifying as Republican, however, ranked Obama 16th. Ronald Reagan, who also moved up from his previous ranking, trails behind Obama in 9th place.​

How many threads do we need on this same stupid story?

How do you judge a president 3 years before the end of the first term?

The book is closed on Obama

Looks like he did pretty good

He did pretty good at two things:

1. Artificially inflating the stock market, thereby making a lot of Wall Streeters wealthy.

2. Boosting the sale and manufacture of firearms and ammunition.

You know when you insult Obama it says nothing about Obama? Can you go through your posts and show when you last said a good thing about Obama?

You have lost objectivity, you lack the ability to inject cognitive thought into a conservation on this topic, so what you are saying is mute as it is not based in reason.

He struggles to find fault with the Great Obama

Meanwhile, The Great Obama sits at number 8 in a ranking of US presidents

The two Republicans that served before and after Obama?
30th and dead last


what a crock of shit. That same media outlet said they had polls that said Hillary had a 97% chance or winning and that Trump had no path to 270 EC votes. they lied then and they are lying now.

Trump has most of the media, most of congress, Hollywood, late night TV, and the entire dem/lib establishment against him and he is still turning the economy around, has made the USA respected internationally again, has put more money in working americans pockets, and is returning our culture to basic human values.

He could very well go down in history as the greatest president ever.

"the great Obama" :lame2:

Read the OP

It is not a poll but a ranking by 170 historians

Even if you only look at the rankings by Republican historians.....Obama is still 16 and Trump is 40


Historians from left wing indoctrination centers of diseducation and liberal brainwashing.

Value and significance = less than zero.
 
Obama's legacy will be ensured by being sandwiched between two of our worst presidents Bush and Trump

He will be looked at as eight years of sanity
Hypocrite...creating a nation of coffee servers is your notion of greatness?

Stop this dumb shit

Mods are free to merge - I did do a search on the topic but the search engines on these boards generally suck.

Nothing dumb about it. I think it's completely fair to gauge the success or failure based on a catastrophic first year. Could Trump change - Nope, he's proven himself to be incapable of changing anything about how he behaves or defending our country. He will come up with no new tricks in the next three (assuming he lasts that long).

I always get a kick out of these "polls".

They always have a few of the Founders at the top of the poll, only because they have to in order to gain some legitimacy, and they place all of the Progressive Founders along side of them, like FDR.

Now let's look at the history of FDR. He was an ardent racist as he locked Japanese American in camps because they looked like Japanese. Meanwhile, German Americans remained free. Then he pulled the court packing scheme because SCOTUS denied his New Deal as being unconstitutional. He tried to place stooges in SCOTUS to rule as activist judges for his policies. FDR was soooooo bad, that after his reign they limited the term of President to 2 terms, citing corruption as the reason.

The poll is pure BS, just like Obama's Nobel Peace Prize. In fact, how did Libya work for everyone? LMAO!

Half wit rubes.

I'm not big Trump fan but I have said and continue to say that Trump only has to do two things to be the best President in over half a century. The bar is set so low all he has to do is not start a war and improve the economy.

Naturally, Academia that is in the back pocket of the Deep state will never acknowledge him for it if he pulls it off.
