We’ve had bad presidents before, like Andrew Jackson, Andrew Johnson, and Richard Nixon, but they all weren’t this insane, corrupt, or just monstrous. And they all thought they were doing what’s best for America. They were often wrong, and selfish, bigoted, and so on, but Trump doesn’t *care at all* about anyone other than himself.

My MAGA parents still insist we are better off under Trump’s rule than if Kamala were president. They are beyond gone. Living in their own reality. They think Trump is bringing the US that MAGA utopia Jesse Watters promises them daily on Fox New’s The Five.

I’m pretty sure he’s the worst American in history.

He bankrupted several casinos. I know that’s old news but it’s a gigantic sized red flag that he’s a reckless, impulsive moron. There are halfway houses packed with people that would make a better president than this chump. The bill is coming due and none of us are going to like it.

if only… if only… we could have had some kind of “preview” what kind of president he would be…

Criminal record. Epstein’s associate. Miss teen USA locker room dweller. Grab em by the… they let you do it when you’re a star. No military service, bone spurs in foot, can’t fight, can’t serve. Pathetic, overweight, wears makeup, hair is unnatural, fading, and stays on like a baseball cap with a bill and everything.

I remember claiming in this sub during his first term in office that he was the worst president and getting flak. It was obvious back then he was a psychopathic narcissist and unlike any president before him.

Technically he’s the worst two presidents in American history.

The only president who comes within a mile of how awful the 47th is would be the 45th.
wildjagd8 on
Easily among the worst heads of government in 20th-21st Century world history as well I’d argue, and yes I think he’s in the Hitler ballpark. The only thing he has yet to do is intentionally conduct an organized genocide, and I think most of us would agree he would have no qualms about committing genocide. His disturbing nuclear interests and fixations are alarming to say the least.

Worst President so far. This is now the bar by which Republicans will be judged and trying to limbo under.

Buchanan is the only one close, and would have been worse had Trump not been elected a second time. But the corruption now is just so much worse than Buchanan’s.

Bullshit clickbait headline. How are we supposed to know who they’re talking about?
I really don’t think the /s is necessary, but just in case…
viserov on
Even with previous godawful presidents, there’s still a few things they accomplished during their term that is worth celebrating.
I legitimately can’t think of one thing Trump has done that was good for America.

I don’t get how we had to elect him again to realize this. It was obvious the first time to anyone with a brain.

Can we extend that to Maga being the worst political movement in U.S. history (at least modern history).

He’s so fucking bad he got my social anxiety ridden ass to register and out to vote multiple times. Even W didn’t do that. And I’m in TN where my vote doesn’t even really matter.

I’m in agreement with that statement but what truly baffles me is that so many people in this country still believe he is doing great.

And at the worst possible time for our species, objectively. Idiocracy? Great Filter? Simulation Theory? What possible explanation could there be for anyone at all supporting Donald Trump.

And what does this say about the voting population? Something is not working if the people do not have the critical thinking skills to rule a person like Tmp out.

We’re not giving Congress enough credit in this.

Umm, trump is polling with an approval rating 111.2 %
are you calling him a liar ?

Unless you’re a Christian nationalist who makes 30k a year and has no assets, health insurance, savings, or a local hospital. Then he’s the best president ever!!
ionbear1 on
He was considered the worst when he lost in 2020, and he was still elected in 2024. Save me the pity NYT this is on you and other mainstream media for allowing his name to be relevant following the 2020 election.

And yet…they voted for him twice…
Aimela on
In this country, he is uniquely:
* The worst president ever
* The most un-American president ever
* The most criminal president ever
* The oldest president ever inaugurated(he’s held that title twice)
* The most narcissistic president ever

It’s not even *remotely* a competition.
