Feb. 19 (UPI) -- A new survey of historians ranks Donald Trump the worst president in U.S. history.

Trump has touted his poll numbers against President Joe Biden ahead of a potential rematch in November. However, the 2024 Presidential Greatness Project Expert Survey, conducted by Qualtrics, has Biden significantly ahead of the former president.

The survey was conducted online among more than 500 members of the American Political Science Association, an organization of professionals in the field. Respondents rated Biden at 62.66 on a scale of 100 for overall greatness, good for 14th out of 45 presidents.

Abraham Lincoln scored the highest rating at 93.87, followed by Franklin Delano Roosevelt at 90.83 and George Washington at 90.32

Surprise, surprise, surprise, historians rank Trump last even though there was a booming economy, energy independence, and no American involvement in foreign wars.

Gomar Pyle would be a better president than ice cream Brandon.

More than likely, Jo Jo Pedophile forgave a lot of student loans for these so-called “historians”.

“Biden at 62.66 on a scale of 100 for overall greatness, good for 14th out of 45 presidents.”

What else do we need to say about the level of fake news being promoted here?

I’d expect a poll like this to have Obama as #1.

Every time someone says “history will say....” and then something obviously evil about the Left I have to say the historians right now continue to be absolutely woke apologists for Marxism. The Douglas Brinkley, Jon Meacham, Doris Kearns Goodwin, Howard Zinn and others are already anti-Trump and anti-American.

They are writing history.
Plus anyone who is on the conservative side doesn’t get tenure, doesn’t get accepted by the woke publishing corporations and doesn’t get on TV panels. I saw Douglas Brinkley taking his turn on a roundtable to make absurd hostile slanders against President Trump.

This reminds me of William Buckley’s comment that he would rather be ruled by 2,000 names out of the Boston phone book than than the Harvard faculty.

Only idiots would call other idiots at the American Political Science Association “historians”.

I don’t think you can rank a ‘best president’, we’ve had many great ones.

Of course, there is a WORST president...

Putting forth the story on Trump that he will deserve to lose when he loses in November (after 2-3 vote “stoppages” in the middle of the night).

Historians. Ha. They have a bad habit of revising history. Whew, the upside down bs in our kids’ textbooks. I couldn’t wait from some hooey in my students’ history books and go off curriculum with it.
