Depending on how the next four years go I’m on the fence between Bush Jr. and Trump but I’d like to hear from you

Edit:

Top 10 suggestions so far (unordered):

  • Andrew Jackson
  • Andrew Johnson
  • George W. Bush Jr
  • Ronald Reagan
  • Richard Nixon
  • James K. Polk
  • Woodrow Wilson
  • James Buchanan
  • Franklin Pierce
  • Donald J. Trump

    Does worst mean:

    • least able to achieve their stated agenda, ie worst at their job. (Trump)
    • worst vision for America, ie most evil (Reagan)
    • worst overall impact to America, ie one you’d kill with a time machine (Bush Jr, but Trump might catch up in term 2)
    • Worst for the world, ie the one I’d kill with a time machine (Washington)

    Although I’m not American and don’t know your history that well.

      You probably know it way better than the average American. I say this not only as an American, but as one who has been outside North America. I find that our own perspective on us is pretty skewed, and it takes a lot of work to set it straight. More than most of us are willing to do.
