Trump Ranks Dead Last (Again) in Poll of Presidential Greatness
The former president always offers himself glowing superlatives, but scholars find little to admire about the presumptive 2024 GOP nominee
February 19, 2024
Donald Trump became the 45th president of the United States on a promise to “Make America Great Again.” But a preeminent group of political scientists that Trump would no doubt characterize as “haters and losers” has once again ranked him as the worst commander-in-chief in the nation’s history.
These participants ranked each president on a 0-100 scale, with 0 indicating “failure,” 50 equaling “average,” and 100 meaning “great.”
Taking the average of these scores for each president gave an aggregate rating, and it may be no surprise that Abraham Lincoln came out on top at 93.87, followed by Franklin Delano Roosevelt and George Washington, the only other presidents rated in the 90s. Joe Biden landed on the higher end of the spectrum, claiming the 14th spot with the more middling score of 62.66. At the very bottom of the list, meanwhile, was none other than Donald J. Trump, at a meager 10.92.
Trump had also placed last in the previous edition of the survey, released in 2018, but performed slightly worse this time around: Six years ago, he earned a rating of 12.34, putting him just a couple of points behind the second-worst president, James Buchanan.
