Can you people please just follow the rules?

Take the guys I listed and rank them from best to worst.

It's really hard to combine different rankings when y'all are skipping presidents, adding your own presidents, making your own rules, etc.

^ I edited the post.  I can't rank a President who isn't done with his term, though, so if you must include Trump ... I give you permission to put him last. Wink

Bottom Tier (worst to best):

1. Donald Trump
2. Franklin Pierce
3. James Buchanan
4. Andrew Johnson
5. John Tyler
6. Herbert Hoover
7. Millard Fillmore
8. Warren Harding
9. Andrew Jackson
10. Martin Van Buren
11. Benjamin Harrison
12. George W. Bush

The last three Presidents weren’t that terrible overall, but did have flaws. I also did not rank Willian Henry Harrison because he was in office only a very short time and this had no positive (or negative) accomplishments to his name.

He was one of the most corrupt and incompetent presidents of all time, a self-admitted unqualified simpleton:

Quote
“I am not fit for this office and should never have been here.”

Also, like all the Republican presidents of the 20s with their short-sighted economic policies, he must shoulder a share of the blame for the Great Depression.

sure, it's just that to say any of that guarantees his placement in the Terrible Twelve is rather generous to the other 43 men we're talking about here, and i think with harding inexperience ought be more of a lens than a knock in and of itself given the chaotic 1920 republican convention
