"...bar that every other president cleared..."

The bar is achievement relative to other Presidents.



>you’re a joke because you’re the poorest billionaire, you only just cleared the bar

I guess everyone is a failure when you’re comparing someone to 40 of the most successful out of billions

If I were in your shoes right now, I'd be quaking in my boots. We have less than 100 days until the election and Trump is getting massacred. He needs to turn this around real quick if he wants to win.

"His greatest accomplishment was winning election"

Again proud to clear the lowest possible bar that every other president cleared. By definition the least impressive one can be


Well it was indeed Obama's greatest accomplishment, since that's what got him a nobel peace price and definitely not anything past inauguration day

I'd say his greatest accomplishment was weathering the financial crisis, followed by the ACA, followed by the killing of his mentor Obama bin Laden.

Something HUGE has to happen between now and November for Trump to even be in the running.

Currently Biden is winning in every single swing state even if you double the "secret vote" from 2016.

There's really no avenue Trump has to winning that is in his control at this point. He could be a media darling for the next few months and it wouldn't do much to sway people.

Obama will probably be a top 25% president indefinitely, and will almost certainly be a top 50% president indefinitely.

At this point, I'm having a hard time seeing how Trump makes it out of the bottom 25%.

The hilarious thing is that Democrats are now favored to take the Senate. If you had told me that in February I would have laughed in your face.

Trump is already more corrupt than the Harding and Nixon administrations. It's unlikely that he'll be worse than folks like Pierce and Buchanan though. Bottom 25% is pretty much guaranteed.

I find it difficult to rate modern presidents because we're still seeing the ramifications of their actions. For example, Clinton was rated a "fine president" but looking back, we see some pretty serious mistakes. He was obviously a good statesman and politician, but he made some pretty awful decisions. Obama was a political novice for over half of his first term. I think it would have been better if he lost in 2008 to Hillary so that he could learn the ropes.
