Re: Best President in Your Lifetime
You forgot lbj.
You forgot lbj.
Slenderman was the worst president EVER. He had some close runners up, Wilson, both Roosevelts (not my lifetime but very worthy of mention) as well as LBJ and that boob jimmy carter...but sm was atrocious, no words to describe how bad ...and we are still in the midst of asessing the damage with the current scandals.
Eisenhower and Reagan were pretty dang good... but Trump is out doing both, already. He has faults, we all do, but damn he gets things done dragging the swamp on his back getting there despite the obstacles they throw in his path.
All thaI just challenges, invigorates the man.
I'll say this; Obama was a good house boy. Surrounded himself with Wall Streeter's and did what he was told.
A recent Pew Poll has shown that President Obama is clearly chosen as best president in the respondents' replies:

It might be interesting to see how DP stacks up with the general population. In keeping with the Pew Poll method, you may pick two of the presidents listed below as being the best in YOUR lifetime.
Being limited to 10, I listed Kennedy....that should have been Johnson. Perhaps for purposes of this poll we can view that as one administration?

Every word of your post is raw sewage.
Drowning in your too many mugs of Morning Joe and Zika, I see. Didnt you dream there were mosquito borne clouds in your coffee? :lamo
Argue it then.
Teddy was a misguided progressive and his cousin a guy who thought government could solve ALL problems. WRONG. FDR got rescued by America rescuing the world and motivated to become the arsenal of democracies and victors/liberators...if it were up to his centralizing govt policies alone we, and the world, would probably still be in the Great Depression.
The guy could inspire with his speeches, I will grant him that.
Slendermn has undermined almost every facet of what America has acheived and stands for. He was embarrased by old America and therefore wanted to fundamentally change us. America didnt want what he was giving away for free.
Shred of knowledge and/or credibility??? Yeah … right!
Good one (like you would know what that means) ROFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Eisenhower and Reagan were pretty dang good... but Trump is out doing both, already.
That wouldn't be hard now would it. I guess Ike wasn't that bad for sleepwalking through his presidency.
Every word of your post is raw sewage.
Trump outdoing Eisenhower? Yeah, okay.
Trump outdoing Eisenhower? Yeah, okay.
Oh, dont get me wrong, Ike was great.
Along with his hard work he had the good luck of appointing 5 supremes.
Your historical illiteracy is matched only by your verbosity.
In a much more competive world Trump is reducng/reforming taxes,
reducing unemployment,
bringing back industry and manufacturing,
overseeing wage increases,
is rebuilding a sorely neglected military,
has decimated ISIS,
is holding our free loading NATO partners feet to the fire,
is making steady progress on our out of control immigration
...is making progress on that many decades now neglected Korean peninsular problem...
And he has, so far, made two appointments to the SCOTUS...
Gorsuch probably already a better pick than any of the 5 by Ike.
.. and Kav will probably be as well...
Doesn't that violate the McConnell rule?
McConnell isnt a president we are reviewing here, eh? Yano?
Obama saved the world from total economic meltdown despite the knuckle-dragging gop.
He was replaced by a man who will be regarded as the single most pathetic historical figure in American history.
Jefferson Davis and Benedict Arnold have a soulmate in Donald Trump.
Politics of taxes aside, that is what almost every Republican does. Following the party platform blueprint does not make one stand above the rest.
Wasn't long ago that the improving unemployment numbers were dismissed by Trump when it was under Obama. Oh, but now that Trump is president those numbers are no longer fake...

^Unemployment been on a steady decline since 2010. Remember, Obama was president for six of those eight years. Doubt you were giving him credit, then...
No, he is driving it overseas with his trade war. But that should be perfectly okay to Trump, after all, Trump products are made overseas, too.
Not for the middle class. And if the GOP continue to get their way they'll continue to devastate the middle class by destroying unions.
Military spending goes down when you wrap up wars. Are you really arguing the military should have the same budget with no wars as it would with two wars?
3/4 of the military operation to take out ISIS was during Obama's Administration so that means you would have to give Obama 3/4 of the credit.
But Putin is fine. We're fine. We're people.
As long as the Central American countries see turmoil we will continue to see them crossing that border.
Lol, what progress? All that he did was shake Kim's hand and tweet that we could sleep soundly now. Meanwhile, satellite images show NK is continuing to build up their nuclear sites...
Which any Republican would have made. Even a monkey would pick the 'right' justice if trained to do so.
No, Gorsuch does not beat Warren. Nowhere close.
Kav is a Bu****e. He's part of that 'swamp' you guys squeal about.
