“Presidental greatness” of the 45 Presidents of the United States, President Joe Biden emerged as the 14th-best President, while his anticipated 2024 presidential contender, former President Donald Trump, came in last place. Known as the 2024 Presidential Greatness Project Expert Survey, the study was conducted by a group of leading experts specializing in the American presidency — including the current and recent members of the Presidents and Executive Politics Section of the American Political Science Association.

The opinions of “experts” are what unthinking, brainwashed and lazy people follow so that they can maintain the illusion of their own intelligence and get along at the proper cocktail parties.

Typical Leftist fantasizing. I'd put Washington, John Quincy Adam's, and some other Founders at the top of the list. Then Lincoln, Reagan, Trump... The highest ranking Democrats would include JFK and Truman after that. Wilson, LBJ, FDR, Biden, Carter and Obama would be done at or very near the bottom.

Did they use the same experts that the government uses to predict economic indicators? They are never right either. Their predictions are always wrong and need to be adjusted. When the actual financial reports come out, they are always quietly adjusted a few months later to reflect reality. The presidential ranking should also be ranked again, later, to reflect reality. Maybe have real people do the selection. Not a bunch of liberal academics.

This publisher is out of Staten Island. You can imagine the type of "experts" they have assembled. This is like taking a poll of University people about climate. You know the results before you begin. Or polling Hillary Clintoon's people whether Trump colluded with Russia. It's a farce.

This list is pure bull Schiff and made me laugh myself out of my chair. Bumbling Biden is in the top 20 with take a turn on the intern Clinton and Obama ranked higher than Reagan. Typically, with PDJT ranked dead last. Because why? He was a meanie to democrat losers and tweeted all of the things he did for We the People online? Absolutely ridiculous. #9 had it right. GW would be first followed by T Jefferson, John Adams and James Monroe. Then Abe, Reanadus Magnus (thanks Rush), Ike, GHWB and dead last the Shrub. For democrats JFK and Truman with LBJ, Clinton, Carter, Obama and the Kumquat in that order.

How is someone qualified as a "Presidential expert"? I know the best presidents of my time have been Ronald Reagan and Donald Trump. The only Republican president I consider very good was Harry Truman. The absolute worst are Obama, Biden and Carter in that order. I give Biden some sympathy points because I don't think he is the actual person running the Biden regime. Someone else is pulling the demented old fool's strings.

You are correct poster #15! George Washington was the best President of the United States. However, President Donald Trump was a close second. Yeah, that's right. Even better than the third best, President Ronald Reagan. Jimmuh Carter at 22 is a belly laugh, not to mention the magic Kenyan at 7, Clintoon at 12, and braindead bidet at 14. President Reagan ranked at 16 behind those three crooks is unconscionable. I would not have expected anything different form these brainwashed dullards whose "Vision" includes the following pap: "The American Political Science Association (APSA) promotes SCHOLARY UNDERSTANDING of political ideas, norms, behaviors, and institutions to inform public choices about government, governance, and public policy." Yuh see, you and I are not smart enough to understand their reasoning. Their "Values" are equally scoff worthy: "It is committed to transparency, open enquiry, scholarly pluralism, high standards of ethics and integrity, and a global perspective." Transparency, ethics, integrity? HA! Global perspective is also very revealing. Yup, a bunch of academic deadheads schooled in the finest arts of Marxism, Communism, Fascism, etc.,.. This wonderful organization where the polling took place even includes a Diversity and Inclusion program, just so everyone knows EXACTLY where they're coming from. Let's see how many enemedia outlets refer to this crap "survey" in the coming months.

"a group of leading experts specializing in the American presidency" Nice try. Trump was not best; but Biden may have been worst. I might be more inclined to rank the two in the reverse positions from what that group did. And don't be fooled by the lofty title of those elites -- it was little more than a herd of stinkin' Commies in fancy attire. Their idea of what makes an **American** President winds up looking a lot like a tribute to the Soviets or ChiComs.

"Experts". Self proclaimed no doubt. Well, I am a bit of an expert myself. I have used US currency all of my life and there are Presidents on the currency. I also celebrate Presidents Day, voted for many Presidents, and once stayed in the Presidential Suite of a nice hotel. In my rankings, Biden is dead last.

Argentine President Javier Milei met former American President Donald Trump on the sidelines of the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) on Saturday, their first in-person meeting ever and the culmination of a year of mutual support and praise in public. Both were in Maryland to address the conference – Trump delivering his traditional high-energy speech addressing his ongoing presidential campaign and Milei abandoning his more popular delivery style to issue an hour-long treatise on economic theory. Milei and Trump reportedly met following Trump’s speech, in which Trump took a moment to recognize and celebrate Milei as a “great gentleman” and “fabulous guy.”

Like Pakistan deporting its illegal Afghan aliens, El Salvador jailing its gangs, or Argentina balancing its budget in nine weeks, it just requires political will.

Jim Jordan, who chairs the committee, demanded the network reveal who at CBS or parent-company Paramount Global “made the decision to terminate” Herridge.
