Coopting and corrupting the DOJ in an effort to take down your chief political opponent during a presidential campaign.

Or, conspiring with the Russians to create a falsified smear "dossier" which is "leaked" to the press as "intelligence information" and to the FBI/DOJ in an effort to affect the outcome of a presidential election.

Take your pick.

Because conservative scholars also give Trump an F-. Even they rank Trump in the bottom five of all presidents.

Winning!
Again -- the entire thing is ridiculous!
He's only been in office for one year, you can't even compare him to presidents who served 1 or more full terms. And if you were comparing him, you can't put him near the bottom, the economy and the stock market are doing too well. So that leads me to believe it's nothing more than a sour grapes hatchet job by the establishment.

real scholars know that real scholars don't rate a President's performance on one year.

No, it means you don't like what you are reading, so you dismiss it.

All 9 conservatives in the survey. So what. 47% of the academics were smart enough to not respond to the survey.

Interestingly, President Obama moved up 10 spots since 2014, from number 18 to number 8.
A preschooler could come up with the same findings. He is terrible.
