Who’s the worst president of the United States since World War II? Donald Trump, according to a plurality of voters.
A new Quinnipiac University National Poll released Wednesday showed that 41% of voters named Trump as the worst of the 13 presidents who have held office since then. He was then followed by Barack Obama, who received 21% of votes.
Here’s the rest of the breakdown:
Richard Nixon, 10%
Jimmy Carter, 8%
George W. Bush, 6%
Bill Clinton, 4%
Lyndon B. Johnson, 2%
Ronald Reagan, 2%
Gerald Ford, 1%
Obama can look on the bright side, though -
Here’s who voters thought was the best president since World War II:
Ronald Reagan, 28%
Barack Obama, 24%
John F. Kennedy, 10%
Bill Clinton, 10%
Donald Trump, 7%
Dwight D. Eisenhower, 4%
Harry Truman, 3%
Jimmy Carter, 3%
Lyndon B. Johnson, 2%
Richard Nixon, 1%
George H. W. Bush, 1%
George W. Bush, 1%
It’s a fascinating what happens when “someone who doesn’t hit the intellectual bar people expected for the president” is contrasted with “someone who doesn’t hit the intellectual bar people expect from their door girl at Sephora.”
Trump will go down as the worst. Period. I predict if he loses reelection, he will not keep quiet, but will continue to be a damaging and disruptive influence. In fact, I think he will constantly hold his Nuremberg style rallies and attempt to run again.
