Americans of all stripes love to debate which president was best or worst. This is a subject that is too important to rely on opinion polls, which are skewed by individual bias and political views. While It's difficult to rate how good or bad any president may have been in comparison to another, a careful look at the facts shows one president failed in virtually every aspect of the job to a degree unrivaled by any other.
When you review the facts below and consider his impact on our economy, foreign policy, and domestic policy, by almost any standard, itâs difficult to find any president who did more harm and left the country in worse shape than George W. Bush.
At the same time that Bush was leaving office with a 28% job approval rating, 61% of historians rated George W. Bush's presidency as the worst in history. In another, informal survey of 109 professional historians, 98.2% judged the Bush presidency as a failure while a mere 1.8% classified it as a success.
Below you can find all the reasons that George Bush deserves the title of Worst President in US History. I encourage you to do your own research and verify the facts stated in this article.

Dumbest Article. Hands Down.
They're always unbiased, right?
He was known as an Aunt Nancy.
But GW gave us Obama.
Woodrow Wilson
William Henry Harrison. He accomplished nothing...
I consider that a plus.
Used to be true, but I think the present occupant has successfully worsted him.
Of course they hate G W Bush because he was a wascly wepublican. But heck he wasn’t even a conservative. They would love to rank Ted Cruz. :-)
“GW Bush was still WAY better than Barry Obama “
And Carter
It’s good to see Harding slip off the list
of worst president. He certainly wasn’t the best,
but he did nowhere near the damage to the country
as did Obama and others.
Gee! Does that mean they can't even meet the minimum?
It certainly is a plus. It was my poor attempt at sick humor. To be fair, I just got back from the gym and there’s little blood in my brain.
I still say LBJ is the worst.
GW did make Obama possible.
GW had a chance to turn us back on the road to limited government and Conservancy when the Republicans controlled and House, Senate, and the the Presidency. Instead he doubled down on government growth and liberal programs.
That moves him considerably up towards the top of the worst list.
Remember that little thing called the war between the states?
It’s not that bad.
Taft? He did nothing to stop the income tax from being adapted. That cancerous amendment is at the core Americas decline. In fact Taft was for it. Technically not something he had control over.
Clinton? Treasonous deals with China and a war in Europe where we fought on the enemies side (Islam). Not to mention the endless corruption. Why not him?
I give the worst of all time to Obama because it was his plan all along to do the most damage. The others , at least, retained some bits of love of country.
. Nope. The GOPe dopes did. They were so happy to not have the Hilldebeest running that gave up the battle.
“I give the worst of all time to Obama because it was his plan all along to do the most damage. The others , at least, retained some bits of love of country.”
Take a look at the link in my tagline - a long article on FDR written in 1938 iirc. Obama is trying to finish what FDR got started.
That would make a good debate. BO hasn’t started a Civil War, yet.
