Odrama is the easy pick for worst US President in my lifetime. No one did more to divide the country with identity politics when he could have united it.

The worst US President not in my lifetime, LBJ. He damaged the moral fiber of the nuclear African American family and enslaved them to the democratic plantation.

Obama for the major abuse of his office weaponizing all the agencies to attack or gain information on political foes. He is a disgusting man and should be scorned for what he did while in office. Not to mention how horribly he ran the country and his ineffective policies. He had no right being president of the U.S.

He has done more to destroy America than any enemy has been able to.

LBJ is the worst POTUS. At least of post 1900 presidents.

Carter was bad too, but he really didn't do anything that has much of an impact today.

LBJ on the other hand created the military industrial complex, the War on Poverty and the Civil Rights Act. Not to mention HUD and other garden variety gibsmedat programs. All of which still exist now.

To top it all off, LBJ also signed the 1964 Immigration Act. A very forgotten part of the LBJ legacy.

If Lincoln had deported the slaves to Africa, the country would be far better.

Granted that it's questionable if Lincoln actually would have done that if he had survived.

What about Franklin Pierce? 70s Catholic elementary school doctrine held that he was the worst, I suppose bc he did nothing to stem the slide to Civil War.

Obama was bad, but he definitely was not as bad as LBJ. I don't even think Obama was as bad as Carter.

He's easily the worst since Harding and arguably the worst since Buchanan. I can't put Trump below Buchanan because Buchanan let the nation split in two which led to the Civil War. I don't think Trump will ever cause a Civil War although it sure seems like he's trying his best.

It is downright preposterous to claim trump is the worst

It takes an extreme level of hackishness

He is?

He's trying his best?

Dude was in office for about a minute before the MSM started talking about impeachment.

Split America in two? Where were you during the Obama administration?

You know who is splitting America in two and it's not the people who were elected by Americans...it's the people who weren't elected by Americans...and they like newspapers.

Trump broke the stranglehold of the media as basically our conduit to what we think is happening. And we knew they lied and politicked. Hello Dan Rather.

If Trump has done anything is to be transparent and bypass the media and show you can speak directly to the American people unfiltered. I don't know if any other President would have been so bold. So many Presidents just took their medicine from biased lying MSM who always wanted to control the narrative and National Policy as the Fourth Estate.

People complain about the SC having too much power, yet we ignore the Fourth Estate that thinks they are a part of government?

This nonsense has been going on for years. Forget the sham...they are not watchdogs...they are the dogs.

Trump not giving a frick is about the best thing this country needed. Media had gotten way too powerful. Nobody elected them but they steered policy and public opinion to a degree not envisioned by the founding fathers.

Regardless of how dumb you think Trump's twitter feed is - the fact that he's bypassing MSM and doing it on his own terms and speaking directly to the American people is groundbreaking and refreshing and independant politics which people clamored for back in the early 90's - which is why the left is freaking out - the MSM no longer controls the narrative much to their dismay.

Shite, Jefferson warned about the media. We've been waiting for an anti-establishment since the early days of the Republic.

William Randolph Hearst:

"You provide the pictures, I'll provide the War."

This is the arrogance and that was 100 years ago.

Obama- had us on the door step to socialism and did more to divide this country than anyone since the Civil War.
LBJ- did more to destroy Black families with "war on poverty", not to mention just being a total piece of shite.
Carter- weak, feckless . piss poor leader

oh, by the way, all dems.

Obama was a socialist lightweight compared to FDR and LBJ.
