Eisenhower is a pretty obvious example imo.

I think that’s unfair and indicative of the attitudes that also try to claim Washington was an “overrated President.”  Having the ability to not unravel as a top executive in a completely unprecedented situation is something that is hard to quantify with stats or lists but also pretty damn amazing in and of itself.

Publius Licinius Crassus.

I am pretty sure his parents did not check his name into Google to make sure people could not make fun of him in 86 BC.

Caesar loves him, but he as a total flop on the battlefield.
