Meh, they're all just meh to me.
Reagan helped tear down the Berlin Wall and end the Evil Empire and communism in Europe.

Nothing meh about that.

Thats fine, but I was born about 6 months before he left office. Barely qualifying as "lifetime".

If I were a Millenial I'd praise him for getting us out of the recession. The problem is that I am a boomer, so I know what a REAL recovery is as I lived through three of them.


I don't know why Trump is even being discussed here. He is only in his 3rd year. We still have 2-6 years to add him to such a list.


For me 3 best 3 worst:
Reagan
JFK

Both of these men were interchangeable in philosophy.

and Clinton in his second term when he went to the middle.

-

Johnson by far the worst because he pushed Viet Nam and killed millions of people for no reason other than money.
Nixon, because he was a total skuzz!
Carter who was a fool.


From 1963-1980 we had horrible Presidents, I know because I was there.


GWB and Obama are interchangeable. Nothing changed from one to the other. Between the two they went on a spending spree and quadrupled the national debt in just 16 years.

Nothing meh about that.

Nothing meh at all about that.
Unfortunately an entire generation has no clue what that evil empire was about and now they want it here. Most profs are Marxists so they have only good things to say about the USSR. So sad!

Nope. Sorry! Disagree.

They must have only asked people between the age of 12 and 19 because the best president in my lifetime so far has been Bill Clinton followed by George H.W Bush.

While I'm not sure I'd rank him #1, Obama's legacy is that he worked hard to ensure that there would actually BE a free society left here in the USA to remember at all decades from now. Obama understood the rule of law and the Constitution at a very deep level. Contrast that with the current President who is doing everything in his power to destroy what we worked toward for hundreds of years.

Trump does not have a clue and could not care less. Then consider the millions of fools that are following him down the path that don't have a clue either.

worked hard? last thing I remember was him saying he has a phone and a pen to get things done.

Is that understanding why his AG was held in contempt of Congress?
