This is exactly what I was going to say.

I’m not sure. I really loved Reagan’s first term, his second, not so much. Trump did many good things. Before my time, but I’ve come to believe Eisenhower was a good President. 60 years later, I think JFK governed much like a Republican; I think Vietnam would have been much different if he had lived. He’ll never get the credit he earned, but Nixon was really pretty darn good.

Speaking of Vietnam, I loathe LBJ and his lies (Tonkin Gulf Resolution) and spineless, incoherent conduct of the war. and all he did domestically to destroy (especially) black families, creating the situation we are still living with today. Carter. Obama. Biden. Each seemingly worse than the other. Carter came off as just feckless to me. A man in way over his head. Obama is malevolent and cold blooded as a snake. Serious intent in his Presidency to fundamentally change America, just like he said he would. Biden is a sock puppet. Obama surely has a role, but I suspect that there’s a cabal of radical leftists making policy for Biden.

Favs:




Shitbirds:
Obama
Biden
Carter
Clinton
LBJ
FDR

Best Lincoln Worst Carter - Obama (tie)

In my lifetime:

Favorite would be Reagan, and it’s not even close.

Tough choice between Carter and Biden for worst.

Favorite probably Reagan.
Best Lincoln but is such a different era, it's hard to judge against more recent Presidents.
Worst has been Carter but now Biden seems to be exceeding him.
I'd also give Carter some bonus points to push him above Biden because I think he was just out of his depth and misguided. He truly wanted to do the right thing, his heart was in the right place.
Unlike Biden who is truly a sleazy guy.
Also Biden isn't done yet and his record hasn't had time to go through the benefit of hindsight phase to see how things play out.

Best/Favorite: Trump
Worst: Biden

I’m not sure I’ve decided the best yet. Andrew Jackson is getting my vote for worst.

In my opinion the best was Teddy Roosevelt for many reasons. The fact that he was a legitimate badass and a Congressional Medal of Honor winner certainly weigh in, but I legitimately believe that his political, and world views align most closely with mine.

As for the worst, objectively it’s hard to argue that Biden isnt the worst or close to the worst. Carter is objectively a contender too. I think Wilson and FDR have been objectively amongst the most damaging presidents as well.

Reagan/Trump. Jimmy Carter came damn close to destroying our family business (lumber yard) and Reagan got us moving again. I have an overwhelming good feeling that Trump is going to do the same thing post Biden.

Reagan.

Truman. He had the gumption to do something that ended the war and not cause more American casualties.

My answer is based on who in my lifetime.

Favorite is Reagan

Worst is Biden.

I see some commenting on best so once again in my lifetime I would say best (which as was said by someone else best is different than the OP's question of favorite) was Trump

Favorite: Calvin Coolidge. "I believe in the American Constitution. I favor the American system of individual enterprise, and I am opposed to any general extension of government ownership, and control. I believe not only in advocating economy in public expenditure, but in its practical application and actual accomplishment. I believe in a reduction and reform of taxation, and shall continue my efforts in that direction."

Worst: Woodrow Wilson. Big government and the administrative state began with him.

I'm surprised some are picking Carter. Jimmy looks like George fucking Washington when compared to the current administration. Biden and his merry band of Godless communists have done more damage to this nation and the world, by far, than the worst combined. And they ain't done yet.

Calvin Coolidge

Worst, Carter we're still dealing with his failed policies in the Middle East.

100% on both. Biden is Carter 2.0

Ronald Reagan is my favorite/best pick. I still remember Election Day 1980 and driving to the polling place like it was yesterday. My first presidential election. He was soft spoken and kind but was tough when it was needed to be. One example: Remember how the American hostages in the US Embassy in Iran were released 444 days after being taken hostage, exactly on the day Reagan took office? They knew better than to screw around with him.

Jackson was no saint, but he would literally kick the shit out of any man from a recent generation. With a bullet in his chest. Here's why I say that if you have time and some tolerance for profanity.

And Im telling you right now it's absolutely worth registering for nfatalk to read that post.
here's a teaser:

"Jackson surveyed his forces and realized he was woefully outnumbered and outgunned. So he did what any badass would do -- he improvised. He scraped together a force consisting of U.S. sailors, Marines, soldiers, militiamen, Choctaw Indians, and Free Blacks. When that wasn't enough, he went out to Barataria Bay and enlisted the help of a band of MOTHERFUCKING PIRATES. He not only went to war with a company of pirate soldiers, he also had these scurvy bastards pull the cannon off of their ships and added them to the U.S. artillery batteries already stationed along the road to New Orleans in a heavily-fortified area known as "Line Jackson". All in all, Andrew managed to pull together almost 4,000 fighting men and eight artillery batteries and hunkered down to try and slow the British invasion.

On 8 January 1815 the British assault began. The Brits launched a full-scale charge with over 8,000 men, outnumbering the U.S. forces by just over a 2:1 ratio. Well it didn't fucking matter. Jackson's pirates (and maybe even ninjas and robots) went into full-on berserk mode and U.S. artillery and musketfire blasted the redcoat lines. At the end of the day the British had suffered 2,037 casualties, including the deaths of all three senior commanding officers, while the American forces only had 13 men killed and 58 wounded. The line held, and the victory was total. The British sailed away with their tails between their legs within a week. . ."


Biden is the worst of what politics makes a man.

Trump is the best IMO.

Favorite: Reagan
Least Favorite: Obama (arrogant prick)

Best: Coolidge
Worst: Biden (grifting MORON)

Reagan had a way of delivering a message that made you feel like it is great to be an American. The commies we dealt with while Reagan was in office stood behind the iron curtain. The commies we deal with now stand inside our own borders. I didn’t think anyone would ever beat that pussy Carter as the worst ever. Obama came close, but it wasn’t until his puppet boy Biden got in before Carter was surpassed in my opinion. I’m not sure our country isn’t beyond the point of no return without some measure of violence to take it back. Trump may be the only hope to bring us back from the abyss.
