how we Scandinavians

Reverse the list completely.
Swap Reagan with Bush Jr.

I do wonder were you would stuff Carter and that guy who came just before him.

That would be a ranking from somewhere far outside of Scandinavia. The ranking is accurate and based.

I mostly agree (of course I would, given my own politics ahah).

But I have to give special props to Jimmy Carter for being arguably the last American president with decent morals, who tried to put an end to sociopathic realpolitik and to actually improve lives (both at home and abroad). And for that, he was mocked as a weak leader, a far greater sin than being evil in politics.

Same happened to Truman for refusing to use nukes in Korea.

Carter ranked above Reagan? You CLEARLY did not live in the USA in the 70's and 80's.

Also Obama didn't do much of anything, he can't be in the top half of that list.

You are right about Jimmy Carter. Put him in 1st place.

#1 Ronald Reagan
#2 Bill Clinton
#3 Jimmy Carter
#4 Bush senior

The last four really are not high tiered presidents, and are not worth ranking. Even the first four were average compared to prior presidents.

The DECEPTION is REAL.

The only good thing I can say about Reagan is he was just an actor that the likes of Falwell Sr. and Jesse Helms and Schlafly used as their ventriloquist dummy to make their phony balogna "moral majority" seem legitimate.

That's literally the only explanation for saying something as stupid as "My heart and my best intentions still tell me that's true, but the facts and the evidence tell me it is not." That's Trump-tier idiocy.

Jimmy Carter was a great man, but his best contributions to humanity were made before and after his time in office.

Surviving TWO separate nuclear disasters (and probably-related brain cancer) was no mean feat.

In This Thread I will provide a Accurate Fair Ranking of the last eight US. Presidents:

Hi there! Scandinavian here :)
This is a accurate ranking based on how we Scandinavians see things :cool_seagull:

#1 Jimmy Carter :p_heart:
#2 Obama
#3 Bill Clinton
#4 Biden
#5 Bush senior
#6 Bush junior
#7 Ronald Reagan
#8 D. Trump :cupdown:

This should be about right. Your opinion on this ranking? :tmntmikey:


EDIT:
Jimmy Carter up to #1 where he belongs.

Not even close. Flip it.

I'd swap Biden with Bush Sr, and Bush Jr with Reagan.

Biden loses because of hidden dementia
Bush Sr gains because he kept the US stable during Reagan's hidden dementia
Bush Jr loses because he was a drunk nepobaby figure head.
Reagan gains because even demented he was a better leader than W.

Reagan would win out on Biden except he really started all this "cut taxes, launch unnecessary wars" schtick that ballons our debt. Do one or the other, not both. Basic math.

I think Scandinavians can agree that if Hubert Humphrey had beaten Nixon, we'd have utopian cities on Mars by now.
