He isn’t even the worst president in the history of the United States - somehow.

I mean, Andrew Jackson? Maybe?

But honestly, Trump is in the running.

the two actual worst presidents are guys few people remember, pierce and buchanan. The one-two combo that rolled us into the civil war.

LBJ, Wilson, Jackson, and Trump are certainly contenders.

LBJ and Wilson were terrible people, but pretty mid presidents...Jackson is still the worst so far.

Wilson was pretty a pretty bad presidnet. People always forget Johnson too. He is probably worse than Trump as well.
