Not sure the word modern is needed tbh but still a "well earned" title for the big guy. This list did include Jimmy Carter as well, so technically this does put sleepy joe into contention for worst ever, regardless of recency bias.
Thoughts?

the guy said he was going to bring people together. Well, mission accomplished...
He also said he was going to cure cancer though 🤔
It's truly amazing to watch the world rally around President elect Donald J. Trump, after enduring four very long years of this [garbage]!
Now we know what has been keeping Jimmy Carter alive all these years and he can finally die in peace.

What does that make the people that voted for him?
Best since Lincoln some say.
Joe would know, he’s been around for most of them
Honestly, this is silly. I may not like the things he's achieved domestically, but they are significant even if some of them did come back to bite him in the ass. Foreign policy has been hit or miss - piss poor on Ukraine, very solid on Israel.
To be fair, I don’t think you can put this all on Joe. The dude has no clue what has been going on for a majority of his presidency if not all of it.
The real question should be, has he been one of the worst politicians of all time. Based on the amount of years he held a political position and the little amount of good he achieved during that tenure.

Uh, drug price negotiations? (For context, it is important to recognize that this has been anathema to the industry quite literally as long as I have been alive.) And as I said here and elsewhere, I really think he and his team managed the Israeli situation in a way that avoided much more serious outcomes.
Really? For four years we heard what a jock-stud, bull of a man he was, no? Right up until Dem coup time........ 🤣 🤡
yeah you may have heard that from liberals. I’ve been saying for years that he is clueless and has been a puppet for someone else pulling the strings and has been a terrible career politician.
I think you need to have 50-60 years of history past the president before you can rank them.
I listen to a lot of podcasts on history and anything past 1960’s is too emotionally political to stomach.

Not exactly the Treaty of Versailles, now is it? 🤡 Yet, the monthly cost of Medicare went up more than the social security COLA, and American hostages are still being raped daily by hamas.....Mount Rushmore worthy........
and what better source for insight into american politics than a british tabloid
Not necessarily in this order, but probably something like:
1. Border
2. Ukraine (they took a reasonable calculated risk to send an early de-escalation message rather than making the invasion calculus harder by putting a token number of americans in harms way, which has ended up being a catastrophic failure with no foreseeable solution)
3. Covid relief profligate spending (and no, i can't really be too much more specific given that it was so all encompassing that there's not really a single place to start, and yes, i realize that it took two to tango)
i think its disingenuous to lay covid relief spending at the feet of biden when 5 of the 6 (and about 2/3 of the funding) was passed before biden took office
well as i said, two to tango. but if it makes you feel any better, i really despised student loan forgiveness as naked pandering that quite literally did nothing to address the broader fact/underlying root causes of college pricing being no different than drug pricing in terms of its model, result, or equity
I'm not even sure he's actually alive based on those cringe videos of him being wheeled around on a stretcher to "vote" for Kamala. He couldn't move or speak, but they somehow knew who to cast his ballot for.. dead vote always trends blue.
Obiden = Obama's 3rd term.
So I guess they both tie for most evil POTUS in USA history.
A badge of honor in the eyes of the left.

Poorly worded question, my apologies, worst three presidents? No order needed. I'm not going to pretend to actually know who did what and the actual significance of any of it but would be interested in your opinion.
Like flies flocking to a cow pie here. Predictable
Shouldn't you be pissing yourself about the impending doomsday in another thread?
Biden
Carter
Buchanan
Chis agreeing that threads about biden are threads about shit.. wow, maybe the left is capable of learning afterall.
Fair point. However, British media has been far more fair and partisan than most the crap I have seen/read here in America.
Ah. That's (mostly) a little easier, at least in terms of the big picture rather than getting "something" done. Honestly, the most recent guys aren't even close to being on that list.
1. Buchanan - his laissez-faire exit was nothing short of disgraceful and virtually guaranteed the civil war would be right around the corner, and i say that as a fellow alumnus of his alma mater
2. Wilson - set up the infrastructure that led to WWII and institutionalized the then-emerging myth that humans can solve complicated society-scale problems through regulation, and I say that as his fraternity brother [humorous side note: when we were recently having a cocktail at the President's Lounge at The Homestead in VA, I got pics of Aardvark Jr. giving a thumbs-up to the Coolidge portrait (his favorite) and flipping the bird to the Wilson portrait (his most detested); guys playing billiards burst out into uncontrollable laughter]
3. LBJ - Great Society indeed. He created generational poverty, just like the UNRWA, which is a neat trick indeed. All because he was a psychological basket case with a legislator's mindset, who felt he wasn't politically loved as much as the kennedys.

No it was not, but as he might have said, it was in fact a BFD. And so you know, the monthly medicare cost would have gone up a lot more if they hadn't arbitrarily capped the allowable amount of YTY part D premium increases after removing insurer subsidies in the catastrophic benefit.
