#1 William Jefferson I Did Not Have Sex With That Woman Rapist Put Some Ice On It Clinton.
#2 is not even close. At his worst, Carter was not as bad as Clinton. That Clinton did less damage is because the Republican Congress had applied the brakes. With a Democrate House and Senate, this nation would look more like Italy than the USA.
My first reaction to everyone who always wants to say Carter now is to let history judge, but I tend to want to do the same thing and to agree:
Worst: The only elected president to be impeached. A man who diddled while al Qaida arose.
No one else is close to as bad.
Your ridiculous. Carter was clearly the worst. Go back to taking hits on your bong. Clinton at least had a very strong economy and stock market.
Jimmy Carter wrecked the economy, shut down the nuclear industry, wrecked the national intelligence establishment, nearly wrecked the military and sold out many of our allies. During Carters time the frontiers of tyranny advanced and freedom wained around the world. I’ve got to give the number one slot to Carter.
2 and 3 are a toss up. Could be Buchanan, Polk, Grant, Lyndon Johnson or Nixon.
There could also be a category of “Worse Screw-up By A President” for which the nominees are... About everyone. Any number of otherwise non-terrible presidents have made grievous mistakes - Captain Truman gutting the military while Stalin built his up, Wilson and the suspension of rights during WWI and the Versailles treaty afterward, Harding, who reversed Wilson’s abuses but was caught up in Teapot Dome, etc., etc., etc.
FWIW here’s mine.
1. Carter
2. FDR
3. Wilson
Get ready for the same with this circus of idiots in congress awaiting the messiah, the witch of westchester or emptysuit empty head Obama. Gee, just like ol’ times eh?
