Washington sources stated that a new poll revealed that Donald Trump has been ranked the worst president in history behind a man who failed to acknowledge slavery as the United States descended into the Civil War and a Commander in Chief who died a month after taking office.
As per the survey, to mark Presidents' Day saw the American Political Science Association (APSA) releasing results ranking each of America's 44 presidents on a 'Greatness' scale. Meanwhile the survey, which is taken every four years by 170 of APSA's presidential experts, put Abraham Lincoln and George Washington at the top of the list.
Previously Barack
Obama ranked 18th in 2014's survey, but after leaving office he rocketed into
the top ten and is now considered the eighth greatest president. Moreover Bill
Clinton and Andrew Jackson fell from their top ten spots, because of Clinton's
treatment of women and Jackson's handling of the Trail of Tears, which saw
thousands of Native Americans removed from their homes in the 1800s.
Furthermore the pair managed to stay in the top 15, however, with Clinton at
13th greatest and Jackson at 15th.
