My list of worst 5 presidents:

1. Obama
2. Hoover
3. Carter
4. W. Bush
5. FDR

Best 5 presidents:

1. Reagan
2. Trump
3. Lincoln
4. Clinton (don't kid yourselves, from an economic standpoint he was good)
5. JFK (simply for being so steadfast while facing such a real nuclear danger)

The only good that Clinton did was get a GOP congress elected which pushed him into every 'good' thing that happened. Remember, even his signing the welfare reform act, he promised to 'undo' it as soon as he could get a DEM congress. Then when it showed success, he claimed credit for it.

Nope - he was a lousy president - set in motion the modern excesses of GRAFT and CORRUPTION that Obama honed into a blunt instrument.

I consistently see Carter on these lists, but not Nixon. Nixon actually froze wages and prices during his "Nixon Shock". Can anyone explain why Nixon is considered better than Carter?

Any list of worst presidents that doesn't include LBJ or Nixon on it is shite.

Clinton didn't really do anything to create that economy, so I don't really give him credit for it, and it was the Republican Congress that set up the budget surplus.

JFK actually made the Cold War worse with his inexperience. The USSR never would've made those moves while Eisenhower was in office.
And why no love for Eisenhower on any of these lists? He was probably the least partisan

And "Trump",

Many rules put in base to protect the stock market where taken away by him caused the boom but there is always a price to pay down the road, which started after he had left office.
