Some Repubs use their head as more than a hatrack, but many are too brainlocked to quit licking Rump 😏😏😏😃

Crticism is fine. The issue is most criticism is purely ignorant and can't be backed up. That's when it tells me it's about more than Obama himself.

I wasn't an Obama fan but however he did accomplish a few things.
1. He lowered the unemployment rate from 10% to under 5% in 6 years.
2. There are several people that have healthcare now thanks to him
3. Don't forget about the America Recovery act
4. Ended war in Irag and captured Bin Laden
5. Saved the US auto industry

Just a few. Like every president he had some good accomplishments. However people refuse to see and admit that. Admit it or not a lot of the economic growth we are experiencing can be attributed to him.

People are so scared to criticize Obama for fear they will be called a racist but truth be told he accomplished nothing in 8 years that benefited this country.

Some of us aren't ignorant and realize there have been been both good Republican and Democrat presidents.

Republicans only, please
Seriously

Interesting that the strongest dem's on this site are replying. Have they switched Party's or Is this an indication of their mind set to run down the repub's and Trump at every opportunity.

How much confidence could you have in any poll that did not list Jimmy Carter at the top or at least in the top 2?

Jack Dorsey should be commended for that.

I hope it all goes to the medical professionals that are putting their lives on the line.

Those one percenters the mush brains love to hate, are coming in handy right now.

The stock market was booming until a few weeks ago. The economy was showing signs of weakening mid last year.

Trump did not make the economy any stronger, just the stock market and the 1%ers. Remember that tax cut you got in 2017? Neither do I. All I saw was less taxes taken out of my paycheck which resulted in less of a refund. The 1%ers and corporations got big tax cuts.

Although it's true we had the lowest unemployment rate in decades, consider the jobs. Many less than 30 hours a week, without health insurance.

What has Trump done for you?

Some should really have paid better attention in history class. Nixon inherited a struggling economy and a war from Lyndon B Johnson. But telling the full story doesn't help their slant on reality.

Aside from Truman and FDR. and only because Truman had to make the hardest decision to bomb Japan, and the courage to do it a second time, and FDR because of WW11. By the way, the war got in the way of socialist FDR.
The best pres. for America is Trump. "We built the greatest economy in the world, I'll do it a second time." Donald Trump, today.

What Trump is facing is like what Truman was facing. Both at war. Both with world changing decisions on their shoulders.

Trump. Pay attention. But that's without much thought. I might move him up

Anyone that puts Obama dead last doesn't remember Carter

Obama had some leadership and he broke the color barrier.

Trump is a flimflam man
and bad for America.

How could anyone rank Obama above dead last?
