#ranking of presidents

The survey, which included 154 usable responses from experts in presidential politics, revealed that Trump's average rating was a mere 10.92 out of 100. This placed him well below any other president, with James Buchanan, Andrew Johnson, Franklin Pierce, William Henry Harrison, and Warren Harding rounding out the bottom ranks, but none quite reaching the depths of Trump's unpopularity. The survey determined Abraham Lincoln to be the greatest president in American history overall. Regarding the experts polled for the study, the survey notes: "Respondents included current and recent members of the Presidents & Executive Politics Section of the American Political Science Association, which is the foremost organization of social science experts in presidential politics, as well as scholars who had recently published peer-reviewed academic research in key related scholarly journals or academic presses." [...] Even amongst solely Republicans, Trump netted out at number 41 on the list of presidents out of 45 who have served the office. Meanwhile, those who identified as Conservatives ranked Trump 43, while those who identified as independents ranked him dead last at 45, matching his overall ranking. This stands in stark contrast to views of Joe Biden's presidency. The historians ranked Biden the 14th overall greatest president, just a couple of spots behind Bill Clinton (12) and ahead of other more recent presidencies, including Reagan (16), George H.W. Bush (19), George W. Bush (32) and Carter (22). Barack Obama moved up the list to number 7. When asked to identify the most polarizing presidents, Trump once again stood out, being selected by a significant number of respondents as the most polarizing figure in U.S. presidential history. His divisive nature was evident, with experts ranking him far above other presidents like Andrew Jackson, Barack Obama, and Ronald Reagan in terms of polarization. [color emphasis added]
And to think that many Americans want to re-elect the "worst president in history" over the 14th ranked president in history (Biden), according to eminent presidential scholars.
But then again, Fox News buried the lede of this story, so their ignorant MAGA audience will remain ignorant of how presidential scholars perceive Trump:
The right-wing propaganda network known as Fox News appeared to have difficulty breaking the news to their readers. In an article written about the survey, the network buried the lede, instead writing in their headline, "New presidential rankings place Obama in top 10, Reagan and Trump below Biden," a headline designed to stir outrage amongst their readers.

had to draw this to understand the way i feel about him now that the manga's ended. 🥲 on that note: if you like hawks and his ending, maybe don't read my tags lol. it's not bashing (imo) but they're not v nice. 😅
bg + unobstructed pose under the cut!
his expression's a lil different 'cuz i only changed the merged layer, all the lighting effects already flattened onto it. 💀 alas.
#hawks#mha hawks#bnha hawks#takami keigo#keigo takami#bnha#bnha fanart#mha#mha fanart#spoilers#bnha spoilers#mha spoilers#it's not very positive lol i don't really like the way his character ended 🥲#i think his hero worship for endeavor blinded him from seeing or doing anything that could make a difference#i was so let down when he didm't have any sort of critique or moral dilemma after the touya reveal#and just immediately supported endeavor--it made me think he wss incapable of being critical of his idol.#only further underscored with the way he remembers his endeavor plushie while he defends the rabking system.#like. he thinks about his childhood toy of his hero while he defends the system that ultimately caused that ''hero'' to ruin his family.#so blinded by that pedestal that he unironically thinks about the BIGGEST example of why the ranking system does NOT work#WHILE he defends said system.#he was introduced as this morally complicated guy and instead of his childhood worship of a flawed guy making him more interesting#by having him really THINK about what it means that his hero inadvertently created a super villain#he was instead flattened into an endeavor fan boy. and even tho he was introduced as a guy w a complicated bg of#villainous father + harshly trained by the HPSC from a young age he still doesn't do very much with the system of which he's gained charge.#if he thought of the plushie as a memory of what it meant to have a symbol of hope in his hands it's like...#hawks... abolishing the ranking system wont stop merch and news articles and good PR from happening...#anyways yeah. he was one of my faves for a really long time but the way he ends... i dont like that guy.#that being said him becoming president of the HPSC isnt smth i hate even tho idve given him a vacay and his sought-after free time.#and i like that he brings a katana around now. i tried to make the projection make it look like his epilogue self has wings.#oh and i hated the tiny epilogue panel that made it look like endeavor replaced his entire set of kids. :) just. absolutely loathed it. :))

why is no one considering the fucked up possibilities about kaiser's relationship with ray dark
#do you think he wonders what his life would have been like if ray dark never found him#how would a boy who grew up in poverty feel about letting a man he just met pay for his tattoo#hated by his father. abandoned by his mother. but he was chosen by someone#but only because of his skill#if he fails to live up to expectations what will ray dark say#what will the other members of the new gen 11 say#how does he play knowing the president of pifa is watching him#did he watch ray dark rise up the ranks. does he know what dark had to do in order to reach that position#was he the first 'unpolished lump of talent' to be chosen#what will happen when he has to face him after he's failed#im normal about this. as you can see#blue lock#bllk#michael kaiser#ray dark

Jimmy Carter decided to die within a month of trump's inauguration as a laugh.
All of his nurses and home health aides were like "No Mr. Carter, please don't die! To die now would begin the mandatory 30 day period of mourning in which our country's flags must be lowered to half mast right before Donald Trump would be inaugurated. It would be incredibly disrespectful and hurtful of you, Mr. Carter, to, in your hundred years of age with frequent health scares, choose to die at such a wildly inappropriate time!"
And in response Mr. Carter blinked, breathing deeply, his heart already deep in the peanut fields and his mind set on making history.
#us politics#Jimmy carter#The man really said “historians think I'm a failed president but by god am I going to prove them wrong this one time”#I always thought it was weird that so many historians list carter as like the absolute worst when we've had total madmen in the oval office#like carter wasn't great but we've had people who I would classify as total monsters in the office and we're ranking the peanut guy last?

@love-is-a-pearl there’s a poll, and Pearlshipping is not getting enough votes: https://www.ranker.com/list/best-pokemon-ships/anna-lindwasser
eh hope this doesnt sound too mean but I honestly dont care for ship polls?
Some folks really do think those affect the writing of the anime but a) that one is over; b) it doesnt really LMAO; so I just.. dont see the point of those? To feel like your ship won something?? why??
That being said, GO CONTESTSHIPPING! trully the only drama-free ship in this fandom (if you wanna vote, vote for them, it would be HILARIOUS if an Ash-less non-gen1 ship was the one to win one of those polls)
#|→ not not#also is so funny you can tell amours were the only people voting in that poll cause violaxgrant is on the third place#did they really vote on it just to try and keep poke out of the ranking? LMAO#amourxpoke rivalry is so funny dude#answered asks#if folks only had that much commitment when voting for their country's presidents..

A message to everyone, but especially my hard-left friends:
Please read this. Two or three times if you must.
I'm pretty hard left by US standards, just plain left by Euro standards - democratic socialist, hell yeah. Do I like Harris? Not much. But as a reminder, if we do not vote for her, this is the shit we have to deal with.
Trump is literally campaigning on rounding up all migrants now - not just "illegal" migrants. And with his deniability regarding Project 2025 in the toilet (he's promised to bring on the plan's architect into his administration day one) we know that denaturalization is on the docket, as is the eradication of all LGBTQIA+ protections and - oh yeah - the concept of democracy itself in the USA.
You can whine about not having a better option (Jill Stein is a Russian asset, don't bring up her fucking name around me) or you can get off your asses, make the tactical vote, and make sure shit doesn't get worse.
#Election 2024#2024 presidential election#Zee rants#I am old#I am angry#And I am thoroughly pissed at my fellow “leftists” that are falling for the same shit they did in 2016#You want a hard left president?#Push for ranked choice voting#It's the only way we're getting one in our lifetime#Voting is a weapon#Not an engagement ring

If trump wins it's extremely likely he'd get to fill at least TWO MORE supreme court seats.
"MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell details the “easy two-judge deal” that Donald Trump and rich Republicans could execute to extend the Trump court's rule with younger extreme justices if he’s reelected, “Your vote means possibly 40 more years control of the Supreme Court.”"
Clarence Thomas would give up his seat for another million dollar RV. And it's also predicted Samuel Alito would also be willing to give up his seat.
Please watch this video, it explains the issue better than I can. I also am upset at Biden, but it's not just about him. It's the people he can put in power, and stop from being put in power.
#wrenfea.news#american politics#ive been watching a lot of old news segments from the trump administration#and we cannot risk going back to that#especially with how desperate and emboldened he is to do anything to stay in power#like literally everyday was something new and horrible he was doing#we have no chance of stopping American involvement in the Palestinian genocide if he is president#things aren't black and white#we need ranked choice voting

I still can't forgive Horikoshi for setting up Hawks to be in the perfect position to change the system and then have him... not do that
#i have other issues with the ending but i truly think if he had hawks abolish the hero rankings that would solve so many problems#what was the point of making dabi (product of the hero rankings) burn hawks' wings? was that not an icarus metaphor?#how can he come away from that encounter and decide the hero rankings are still good actually#i get that he's an 'optimist' but none of his optimism equated to real action for the better#the epilogue says it does even though the system did not change in any tangible way. so how did it do that#just because everyday people were inspired by midoriya? that'll only go so far#methinks horikoshi maybe wanted to do more drastic changes then for some reason settled for keeping the status quo#it was such a let down because i loved hawks solely for the potential he had to change everything#it's why i was 100% okay with him being president. i was hyped for that. but he didn't do anythinnggggg so what was the point#hawks#mha

Happy Presidents Day! It's time for the results of the annual Presidential Greatness Project Expert Survey
So here are the five best and five worst presidents according to the 2024 survey. BTW, Grover Cleveland only gets counted once for this survey.
Here are the historians' collective rankings for the top five and bottom five.
I'm fully in agreement with #1 and #45.
The entire 12 page article (PDF) can be read here.
Lincoln, FDR, and Washington are in an exclusive group of greatness by themselves. Trump is in an exclusive group of odium all by himself. The ghosts of James Buchanan and Andrew Johnson are undoubtedly pleased that thanks to Trump, they'll never need to worry again about being considered the worst ever POTUS.
Some other tidbits from the survey.
Jimmy Carter (#22 overall) was chosen as the most underrated POTUS.
John F. Kennedy (#10 overall) was chosen as the most overrated.
The biggest rise in the rankings was by Barack Obama who rose 9 places since 2015.
The biggest decline goes to Andrew Jackson who tumbled 12 places since 2015.
Joe Biden is at #14 overall – in between John Adams and Woodrow Wilson. Though Biden is essentially tied with Adams; both having received scores of 62.66 points.
The ratings average which Republican historians gave to Biden (47.69) was significantly higher than the ratings average which Democratic historians gave to Trump (6.66). No, I didn't make up that 666. 👿
It's only history scholars who participated in this survey. They tend to take a longer view than most of us.
My biggest disagreements are that I would have placed Gerald Ford and John Quincy Adams higher and George W. Bush much lower.
A couple of articles about the 2024 rankings...
MAGA freaks out after Fox News reports Obama in top 10 presidents — and Trump in dead last
Presidential experts rank Biden 14th among presidents in survey, Trump comes in last

I think I really like soundwin because, well, number one obviously the visuals, but number two, their characterization. Like, initially they're both kind of pricks (but neither of them have bad intentions, they're just hot headed and also like 17 years old), and at no point does that... change? There's no 'redeeming' arc for either of them, but they both do apologize and attempt to get better at communicating.
And then we also get to see the other sides of them - of Sound being soft and Win flirting - and it's like... these guys aren't just one thing. They're multifaceted people and it's just portrayed so well!
And the portrayal of an initially-antagonistic pair getting together and still being antagonistic but working past it together instead of just dissolving all characterization into a heap of fluff?? They continue to tease each other - and even say genuinely hurtful stuff. But they work past it together because they care for each other!! And they understand that the other doesn't always mean what they say!
I just, I don't know they make me emotional sjfkdkfk
(but also. the visuals)
#distant screaming screams into the void#msp#my school president#soundwin#they're rising in my rankings so quickly and honestly?? they deserve it
