Fox News is not taking kindly to the news that Trump has been named the worst president in US history.
Kaleigh McEnany, Trump’s former press secretary and current Fox News personality, said:
A new ranking, and I add, in my opinion, a highly questionable ranking of presidents, is turning heads after Biden finished higher than both Donald Trump and Ronald Reagan in his wildest dreams. The survey was conducted by the Presidential Greatness Project, which claims to be the leading organization of social scientists in presidential politics.
They may be the prime example of the disconnect between Ivory Tower academia and real people. Aside from that, Abe Lincoln took first place. Okay, right. Then comes Obama in 7th place, and Biden in 14th, effectively beating Ronald Reagan, who came in 16th. And Trump, dead last. Listen, Lisa, where to start? This is infuriating in so many ways.

Just to give you an idea of what real people think of Donald Trump, President Biden beat him by more than ten million votes, and Trump is also the only president in the history of polls not to have even one of his presidents with an approval rating. over 50%, so the real people, the ones who actually voted him out of office, don’t like Donald Trump.
All the real people who booed Trump at Sneaker Con also showed their disapproval over the weekend.
Rankings are not a matter of academia. Pundits and a majority of the American people seem to agree that Donald Trump has been a terrible president. Trump may be the worst president in American history.
Fox News must try to discredit the ratings because, if they are accurate, they suggest that Republicans could have a very long 2020 campaign if they continue to insist on governing the least popular president in history who is also facing 91 felony counts.
