The debate over Donald Trump’s ranking among U.S. Presidents has long been heated, with his name consistently scraping the bottom. Only figures like Buchanan or Johnson occasionally rank lower, and even that’s debatable.
After his first term, claiming Trump was the worst often sparked mockery. But with the turmoil of his initial term and the chaotic start to his second, it’s increasingly difficult to argue he won’t end up dead last. While other Presidents may have flirted with similar flaws or risky ideas, none appear to have matched Trump’s level of disruption.
