President Trump Sparks a Fierce Online Debate as He Reveals His Ranking of America’s Presidents, Including Himself

Wait 5 sec.

President Trump has sparked an online firestorm after revealing his ranking of the best and worst presidents in American history.On Thursday night, Trump took to Truth Social and compiled an intriguing list of presidential rankings across six specific categories. The categories used were “The Greatest,” “Great,” “Near Great,” “Average,” “Below Average,” and “Failures.”Unsurprisingly, Trump rated himself as the greatest of them all, but many of the other rankings are surprising.For example, he ranks the notoriously racist and infamous big government globalist Woodrow Wilson as “Great” along with FDR, who interned Japanese-Americans during World War II and prolonged the Great Depression.He also ranks James Madison, the Father of the Constitution, as “Average” and arguably the last true small government conservative president, Calvin Coolidge, as “Below Average.”As one would expect, Trump lists Barack Obama, Joe Biden, and Jimmy Carter as three of the five failures. But James Buchanan, who is considered by many to be the absolute worst president, is merely listed as “Below Average.”Richard Nixon, Ronald Reagan, JFK, both Bushes, LBJ, and Harry Truman are missing completely. One assumes these were mere oversights.While Trump is not necessarily wrong (it’s his opinion, after all), this departs from how a typical conservative would rank our presidents.LOOK: THE OFFICIAL RANKING HAS BEEN RELEASEDPresident Trump just posted the only presidential chart that actually matches reality.THE GREATEST — all by himself.Not second.

Some praised Trump for putting together the list, sparking debate, and trolling the left again.Others were confused by some of the omissions, including Reagan, and stunned at his rankings of Wilson and FDR in particular.Best trolling President we’ve ever had.— General LeMay (@GenCurtLeMay) August 27, 2026I would add Reagan at the top and also Coolidge near the top.

Coolidge being on the below average list is a stunning display of historical ignorance.
