Like, him at the top is bullshit in of itself, and putting Jackson in the top is bullshit too. But, he put Grant in the shitbox. Grant: the man who literally won the Civil War for the Union. Fuck off with that!

*Edit: Linky

**Edit 2: Also, Hoover oversaw the start of the Great Depression. So, that wouldn’t make him average. Also, where’s JFK?

    Also, where’s JFK?

    Trump’s team pilfered this from the November 1st, 1948 edition of LIFE Magazine. Arthur Schlesinger, a Harvard University historian at the time, conducted a poll of 55 scholars and authorities to rank U.S. presidents. It’s considered the first poll of its kind. The poll leaves off Harrison and Garfield because they died too soon into their terms to be fairly evaluated. They also left off Truman because he was the president at the time.

    Please don’t repost Trump’s shit.

    My idiot cousin posts a new conspiracy theory to pastebin every day. I don’t give him attention or follow his “commands”, I just shame other people who do.

    The only presidents from the last 80 years included in this are himself and the 4 Democrat presidents alive during his presidency that he has already publically shit on. Almost like he is afraid to put himself over presidents people in his party and target age demographics actually have fond memories of. No Reagan, neither Bush, no JFK, LBJ, Eisenhower…

    Grant would have gotten blackout drunk and set Trump on fire.

    I like to believe Washington would have as well

    His face in his AI portraits always looks like he’s 100lbs lighter and his 13yo victim has just escaped

    Which is hilarious because he would have hated Lincoln and he’s too much of a sissy to put him at the bottom.

    This has the “how come I have all the power in the world but still I am the biggest loser” energy.
