President Donald Trump has long exulted in superlatives. The first. The best. The most. The greatest. “No president has ever done what I’ve done,” he boasts. “No president has ever even come close,” he says. But as his four years in office draw to an end, there’s only one title to which he can lay claim: Donald Trump is the worst president America has ever had.

Re: The Worst President in History
Trump was the worst president ever.
Trump was the most dishonest president ever: He produced more than 30,000 documented falsehoods.
Trump was the most corrupt president ever. He used his office to enrich his businesses, interfered in Justice Department investigations, engaged in obstruction of justice, stonewalled Congress, refused to release his tax returns, purged inspectors-general and pardoned his cronies and co-conspirators.
Trump was the most openly racist president in modern times — arguably since Woodrow Wilson. He consistently tried to fire up his White base with bigotry against people of color.
Trump was the first president who refused to accept election defeat or propagated bizarre conspiracy theories to undermine confidence in the electoral system.
Trump became the only president ever impeached twice — once for trying to blackmail Ukraine into helping him politically, the second time for inciting a violent insurrection to try to stay in office.
Trump was the first president to leave office with only 34 percent approval in the Gallup poll after having been the first president never to crack 50 percent support since the advent of Gallup polling.
Thanks, President Trump. By being so awful, you have all but guaranteed that Biden will be far more successful by comparison.
