Trump’s first year in office was so bad that scholars already rank him as the worst president ever

    I am thoroughly shocked that a Trumpette would stand by Trump despite being provided justification and reasoning for why Trump is polarizing America.

    Shocked.

    I wonder if the OP would buy an online poll of only Tea Party Members ranking Obama.

    What does that make your opinion? What is infinitely less than fish wrap?

    The title of this thread is the headline of the story and both are so misleading that everything beyond that has to be considered fake news. Why bother reading it?

    ROTFLMAO :roflol:
    "The first asked which political party the respondent considered themselves a part of. The results showed that 57.2% (95/166) of respondents were Democrats, while 12.7% were Republicans (21/166), 27.1% were Independents (45/166), and 3% (5/166) selected Other as their option. The second question asked whether the respondent ideologically considered themselves to be liberal, somewhat liberal, moderate, somewhat conservative, or conservative. The results of this question showed that 32.5% (54/166) consider themselves ideologically liberal, while 25.9% (43/166) consider themselves somewhat liberal, and 24.1% consider themselves moderate (40/166). Only 5.4% (9/166) consider themselves ideologically conservative, while 12% (20/166) say they are somewhat conservative."

    Yeah he could cure cancer, cure poverty, and make the whole world at peace and his rankings would not improve.

    Rabid trump hating left wing scholars don't count. Their opinion is worthless. You would need a non biased scholar in this field, and that is almost impossible to find these days. Any serious scholar would never do a rush to judgment, no more than a shrink would diagnose at a distance without ever having sessions with trump. I guess these shrinks and scholars appeal to trump haters? That the trump haters try to use fake scholarship from biased trump haters is par for the course. It is what they do. Predictable as it is invalid.

    Obama will never be great. He did nothing to deserve it. I wish he would have.

    Well, we'll never know, since he's incapable of doing anything that a president should do, much less those improbable tasks...

    Many "scholars" ALSO believe that the Bible is actually inspired by "god", so, uh, let's obviously not put much faith in what "scholars" say.

    Well within the same sentence, you did not even make it past the comma to the period, it listed the results for republican and independent scholars. It probably not a good practice to stop reading things mid sentence just because you find a statement that is disagreeable.

    You want me to apologize for you doing something that you deem to be a waste of time? Take some personal responsibility.

    No, we did not see his unfitness.
    But we can see right through you and all your lefty demagog pals, and the mainstream media and its cover up of the left, and we can see through the evil DNC, and the lying, scheming DOJ and FBI, and the democrats in congress who are obsessed with being obstructionists and bullsh-tters all for the sake of a lust for power and control, and we can see through the cowardly republican do-nothings, and the rogue judges who usurp the power of the president. And we can see through leftist radicals who will not let conservatives speak on campus, and through BLM criminals, and through snowflakes who don't have a clue what they are angry about.
    But, you.... you are blind. I guess you have an excuse.

    Oh, and those so-called "scholars?" They have egos and agendas and are as worthless as felonious illegal immigrant here to collect welfare and sell drugs.

    Seriously folks...

    Trump now has a 54% approval rating in the states that he carried in the 2016 election.

    And Rasmussen has him in the high 40s overall since the SOTU.

    Rasmussen has him in the high 40s among "likely voters." He has a 37% approval amongst all adults as per Gallup.

    But like I said, it is possible that his rankings improve going forward, but that wouldn't change his failures of the first year - the topic of this OP.

    And people are surprised to find out that Trump is regarded as the most divisive president in US history?

    Did you just make a point? I did not comprehend. Maybe because people who work in a traveling carnival have their own language.

    Obama Sets Record For Lowest Supreme Court Win Rate Since Zachary Taylor In 1850
    A new study conducted by Lee Epstein of Washington University and Eric Posner of Kirkland & Ellis analyzed nearly 100 years worth of Supreme Court decisions and found that President Obama had, by far, the worst "win rate" of any President in their data set, going back to FDR, and perhaps the worst since Zachary Taylor held the White House in 1850. With a win rate of just 50.5%, Obama fell well short of previous presidents in modern history that won nearly two-thirds of their cases.
    https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017...st-supreme-court-win-rate-zachary-taylor-1850

    Not sure what your metric is, but for me fascists finish last and losers in the Supreme Court are fascists, whether they nuked the Senate to get their unconstitutional dictates through the lower courts or not.
