Donald Trump is the worst president ever rated last by a 2024 survey of American historians

Shame and disgrace: Echo opinion letter published in the Longview News-Journal, a Texas newspaper:

Dear Editor:  It’s a matter of public record that former President Donald Trump was the most corrupt and the most incompetent U.S. president in history. A survey of American historians in the 2024 Presidential Greatness Project rated Abraham Lincoln at No. 1, the best president in our 235-year history, and they rated Trump at No. 45, the worst.

Trump’s bungled handling of the worst global pandemic in 100 years caused the unnecessary deaths of over 200,000 Americans. Now we have learned that Trump sent scarce COVID testing equipment to Russian war criminal Vladimir Putin, while good Americans died in hospitals without their loved ones by their sides, as refrigerator trucks waited on American streets to carry off the dead.

Trump watched on White House TV as common criminals and traitors ransacked the U.S. Capitol and criminally assaulted Capitol police on January 6, 2021, a date that will tragically live in infamy.

Trump’s undermining of NATO, the greatest strategic partnership in U.S. history, puts American military personnel at great risk and threatens our national security.

Trump’s dereliction of duty in these instances brings shame😳😡😒  and disgrace to the once-proud political party that for so long marketed itself as the “party of Lincoln.”
