    Default The Trump Presidency Is Now History. So How Will It Rank?

    Trump was the first president to be impeached twice and the first to stir up a mob to try to attack the Capitol and disrupt his successor from becoming president,” said Eric Rauchway, professor of history at the University of California, Davis. “These will definitely go down in history books, and they are not good.”

    I already feel that he is the worst,” said Ted Widmer, professor of history at the City University of New York, noting that as bad as Buchanan was — and he was very bad indeed — he was “not as aggressively bad as Trump.”

    Lower than dog shit. His convictions will see him loiter near the bottom like the other scumsuckers.

    He served only one term, and got beat handily in his bid for re-election. He left a nation more divided than ever, with the worst economy in decades, highest unemployment, most small businesses lost, and an utter failure at responding to the only real crisis of his administration.

    On every level, he was one of our worst Presidents. He was in over his head from day 1, and completely incompetent.

    Historians will rank Trump as the worst.

    Trump will be at the bottom. Historians were using about that the last year or so. His inciting a riot that trashed the capital and resulted in 5 deaths will not raise his score.

    Trump will go down in history as the singularly worst President we have ever had. His approval numbers are worse today, than when he entered office, and even then they were lousy.

    Lockdowns were necessary because Trump refused to deal with Covid.

    Anyone who cared about this country was in favor of a lockdown. Had Trump dealt properly with the pandemic from day 1, we wouldn't have over 400,000 dead and its possible that he would have been re elected.
