Easily Reagan. I have a deep-seated, intense contempt for that thing.

Trump is, objectively speaking, the worst President in American history, so this isn't a hard choice whatsoever despite the inclusion of the other monsters on this list.

When I asked the question do you apporve of Reagan handling of PATCO strike , he said absolutely not. Thats probably why, which is funny as it was the right decision as the PATCO strike threatened the safety of the American people.

Yeah, PATCO was good policy, and Reagan was one of the best Presidents in US history - a champion of free markets, a strong liberty, and traditional values, though he whiffed bigly on SCOTUS picks.  My rankings would probably be:
1. Reagan
2. George HW Bush
3. Trump
4. George W Bush
5. Ford
6. Clinton
7. Carter
8. Obama

Trump is objectively the worst, but I appreciate the lack of pretense and he'll likely be a useful tool for a complete ideological overhaul in 2020/2024.  Also he stopped another Bush and Cruz from making it.

Reagan is the avatar for this society's moral decay compared to the old Progressive and New Deal days. But he was still willing to work across the aisle here and there and he had a few good one-liners. Nonetheless, his administration was the most corrupt since Harding, he restarted Nixon/Safire's "media is liberal" bs, and he ignored AIDS. Objectively, he's probably the best, but what he stood for and his attitude, that is why he's more deplorable than Trump.

Bush Jr is Reagan, if Reagan had the perfect Congress, looked awkward when trying to explain things, and was willing to lie about his foreign policy motives just to beat out another hawk. His administration restarted and cranked up to eleven the anti-Science bias, practiced economic policies that caused the worst recession since The Great Depression. And he put Cheney too close to power, and Cheney is literally worse than AOTA.

In general, Obama, with Clinton probably tied (politically, he was great, he is a disgusting human being (rape))

Very close between Dubya and Trump, for different reasons. Voted Bush, since Trump hasn't had time to have as many true disasters as Bush had yet.

All of them are very close to the bottom of the list, personally.

It's a three-way race between Reagan, Trump, and Bush II for the bottom slot though.

I voted Trump, btw.

The clown is such a contemptible person that I would't be the least bit surprised if he wants to kill his critics if he could get away with it.
