Donald Trump became the 45th president of the United States on a promise to “Make America Great Again.” But a preeminent group of political scientists that Trump would no doubt characterize as “haters and losers” has once again ranked him as the worst commander-in-chief in the nation’s history.
The 2024 Presidential Greatness Project Expert Survey was conducted at the end of 2023 among members of the Presidents & Executive Politics Section of the American Political Science Association — a group that publishes multiple academic journals — and scholars who have lately published peer-reviewed papers related to presidential politics. The 154 responses were collected from self-described Republicans and conservatives in addition to Democrats and liberals. These participants ranked each president on a 0-100 scale, with 0 indicating “failure,” 50 equaling “average,” and 100 meaning “great.”
Taking the average of these scores for each president gave an aggregate rating, and it may be no surprise that Abraham Lincoln came out on top at 93.87, followed by Franklin Delano Roosevelt and George Washington, the only other presidents rated in the 90s. Joe Biden landed on the higher end of the spectrum, claiming the 14th spot with the more middling score of 62.66. At the very bottom of the list, meanwhile, was none other than Donald J. Trump, at a meager 10.92.
Trump had also placed last in the previous edition of the survey, released in 2018, but performed slightly worse this time around: Six years ago, he earned a rating of 12.34, putting him just a couple of points behind the second-worst president, James Buchanan. This year, the assessment of Buchanan improved slightly to 16.71, leaving Trump almost six points under his nearest competitor. For 2024, Trump was also rated by far the most “polarizing” of all the presidents.
