how much analysis and intellect does it take to value this lot
George Bush jnr -- coalition of the willing - creator of a totally unjust war
can you value that one?
John F Kennedy - KNEW AND verbalised that America couldn't win Vietnam and should get out of Vietnam ----------- BUT he didn't withdraw - for ONE reason - because if he did, he believed that he would not be re-elected - so, he continued an unjust, non winnable war - which went on to kill thousands more of his own people and thousands more Vietnamese
can you value that one?
Johnson - suffering from mental illness - he too knew that Vietnam couldn't be won -------- did he withdraw? ---------- no
can you value that one?
Nixon ---------- can you value that one? or do you need more information?
Trump - when collaborators who had worked for America - many died for America - and when the Americans were going to pull out of Iraq - then, those collaborators were going to be rounded up and killed by authorities - including their families - so, America decided, rightfully, to extract them out of Iraq etc. and bring them to the USA and they would be well earned citizens.
The plans were in execution - families had left their homes, were in airports - many on planes in flight - on the way
Donald Trump made a kneejerk decision to ban all entry to those people - instantly. Which meant that planes in the air had to turn back taking those people back to a certain death - so, too families that had left homes and were on route to the airports - with authorities for dead certain to twig to what had happened and those people would have been killed
That was Donald Trump
can you value that one?

I'm only taking a small leap to suggest you agree with me that this list is a croc of shit, pintohoo, given that two of the other four Presidents you chose to criticise are in this list's top 10 of all time . You might point that out to Scott, he thinks it's accurate.
