The terrorist attacks were planned mainly during the Clinton administration.

Bush went by military information supplied to him. George Tenet said Iraq having WMD was a "slam dunk."

The recession was basically due to Democrat/leftist policies.

Trump is just a brain dead idiot. Reagan was smart enough to get stuff done, and not for the positive.
Reagan did not throw those mental patients out into the streets when President.

The rich actually paid slightly more in taxes, by percent, after his two tax cuts and the middle class paid less.

Please get your facts right.

Donald J Trump

Which of these bad presidents (two of whom were impeached by the House but not convicted by the Senate) do you think was the worst?

In case you thought you were being terribly clever by posting this poll without including two of worst Presidents in modern history, I have bad news for you. Not clever. At all. Just another boring TDS outburst.

I don't like these polls that don't include EVERY of whatever category is being talked about, in this case presidents.

As a moderate, I'm tired of all of this one side good, one side bad crap. Anybody with ANY common sense and logic knows there are nuances where both sides have good and bad etc...

First president in my lifetime was Truman, but Brandon is by far the worst and he has ( theoretically) two more years to go.
I thought LBJ & Clinton were real slimeballs , but they look like Pericles next to the mendacious, corrupt idiot pretending to be president.

In recent times it would definitely be Biden followed by the great redeemer Jimmy Carter.
The better question would be is “what is the difference between these 2 presidents?”.
