Dwight Eisenhower - Founded NASA and the Interstate system.

Thomas Jefferson - Doubled the size of the country by negotiating the greatest real estate deal in history.

It is so unfortunate that our early Presidents didn't have a crystal ball to see what would offend snowflakes in their safe spaces on protected college campuses 200 years later.





You are right. Only snowflakes sympathize with the forced removal of peaceful Cherokees that resulted in 3-4K deaths. Which was due to an act that was constructed directly from the President’s office who refused to listen to other viable options because he needed the land to cultivate more slavery. Total snowflakes.

Two individuals from whom the modern Democrat Party are trying desperately to distance themselves.

More evidence today's Democrat Party "ain't right in the head."

The answer for anyone who believes in limited government is Grover Cleveland.

Can I combine Cleveland with Andrew Jackson and beat the shite out of my opponents with a stick?

Sure, I like a limited government that's not afraid to tell a banking cartel to frick off, and then survive their assassination attempt by whipping his arse with a cane.

FDR was terrible. He and LBJ were the others I considered for bottom 5.

I like his bootstrap story, and the way he destroyed the National Bank, but I can't get past the Indian Removal Act. If Davy Crochett doesn't like you, then you must be pretty awful.

FDR was a top 5 bad guy.

Honestly, the list of bad presidents is about 40+ deep, so it is a competitive list. Abraham Lincoln takes the cake, FDR takes 2nd. Wilson after him, but then I'm open to some more modern presidents.
