In my humble opinion so FAR has to be TRUMP....

Uncle Donny best POTUS since Uncle Ronny and Uncle Ronny was the best modern POTUS


W and Uncle Barry were both better than Carter but that is a very low bar to get under. Even Johnson is above the Carter bar


the Good:

Reagan
Eisenhower ( Nazi Interstates one of the best things ever )
Nixon ( over Kennedy only cause he served longer - like them both )
Kennedy ( would be a R today )
Trump ( honestly tough to rate Trump thru Kennedy - all good IMO )
Clinton ( blessed with that R congress & the gridlock )


the Bad:

Ford ( not much to go on really )
Bush1
Bush2 ( Bush1 part 2 IMO )
Obama


the Ugly:

Johnson ( disaster in every aspect of the word )
Carter ( only JC could out ugly Johnson )

Opinion? And whats yours?
 
Trump is by far the absolute worst president I've ever experienced.

In my humble opinion that's an idiotic idea.

Trump's only been president for one year. Even though I defend Trump quite a bit from the rabid left nonsense, I think you are stretching this pick to the extremes. I doubt Trump will make it past 2020 and it will probably take several years after that for history to judge him. After 2018 he could very well be facing a Democratic Congress. If that happens then the resistance will be in full force and he will get nothing done unless it is a Democratic agenda. Nixon had some very good points but he has to be disqualified from the good list because he resigned in disgrace. He could make the bad list based on that.

It's pretty hard to put Trump or Nixon in the good category.

Most honesty and integrity:
Carter--too honest to be a politician
Obama--too much integrity to play dirty
Johnson--that whole civil rights thing lost the Dems the South for 100 years

Shrewdest:
Clinton--without a doubt the most cunning political creature in my lifetime
Reagan--The Cowboy schtick; also best ever debate line: "There ya go again."

Clever political animals:
Junior--Compassionate conservative, aw schucks
Trump--MAGA!

Sleazeballs:
Kennedy
Nixon

Nothingburgers:
Bush Sr
Ford
 
I guess it would depend on the values one judges them by.

I think, all things considered, Obama and Clinton was the best for my pocket book. Trump's is enjoying riding Obama's wake but every time he does or says something stupid, (which is almost on a daily basis,) I lose money. The last quarter was a real wake up call. Time will tell where Trump will fall on the economic judgement criteria.

One could argue that, in my lifetime, Carter was the worst. However, NO ONE can deny that, if we were to judge our President's on honor, integrity and all the good things American's aspire to (or should aspire to,) President Carter would be Prez #1 in that regard.

Bush 1 was honorable. It could have been worse.

Bush II was a gypsy in the palace. He fraudulently led us to war and sent our economy in to a tailspin. But I think Cheney, Rummy, and Bush Corp., shoulders a lot of that blame as well. I think the war was more about Halliburton, as well as some other oilfield cronies, than it was about American "freedom." <rolls eyes>. So, Bush sucked but I'll stop there since his momma just died.

If God was to ever give the White House an enema, He would stick it in Trump. It's only been a year but it's been a year of total embarrassment. Holy cow it's been like a bad reality show you can't change the channel on. Without a shadow of a doubt, hands down, Trump is the worst I have known in my lifetime, (but I'm only 61.) I am confident that history will record him as the worst ever and I highly doubt that any future president will be judged worse than Comrade Trump in the next 150-200 years.

Obama didn't use integrity when he beat Hillary. He actually taught Hillary how to fight dirty and that's exactly what she did against both Bernie and Trump. Admittedly, Obama was much better at it than Hillary was.

Seriously off the hook example of revisionist history. Hillary was the master of fighting dirty. That's why Obama beat her...barely.

lol, these Trump fans can't keep their talking points in order. One minute they are arguing that Hillary started the birther conspiracy theory, and another minute they are saying Hillary didn't know anything about fighting dirty.

I will say this. She didn't fight Trump as hard as she fought Obama in 2008. I don't know if he was old age, or health issues (maybe both), but Hillary didn't fight Trump with the same fire she fought Obama in 2008. Had she went toe to toe with Trump the way she should have, she probably would have won.
 
Martin van Buren was the best President by far. None yet have matched his sideburns. Roosevelt had a pretty impressive mustache, so he'd be next. As for the bad, Obama is only slightly better than Trump on the strength of his eyebrows.

Be honest, you're only judging by the fact he was one of the funnier features on Seinfeld.
