Donald Trump has unleashed his own bizarre personal ranking of former American presidents.
Unsurprisingly, Trump, 80, put himself at the top of the list as “The Greatest” of all time in his Thursday Truth Social post.
A generous Trump also declared former Presidents Abraham Lincoln, George Washington, Franklin D. Roosevelt, Woodrow Wilson, Thomas Jefferson, and Andrew Jackson to be “Great”, but not on his elite level.

It’s a stupid list for sure.
I’m not sure about Coolidge as below average.
Wilson great?!?!?!
No-shows on his Truth Social list included John F. Kennedy, Ronald Reagan, Richard Nixon, Harry S. Truman, Gerald Ford, William Henry Harrison, James A. Garfield, Dwight D. Eisenhower, Lyndon B. Johnson, and both George H.W. Bush and George W. Bush.
LOL!
It’s all schtick.
the Racist, Socialist Wilson was NEVER great!
surprised to see wilson and FDR up there with washington and lincoln
Honest question: What purpose does this serve?
I’m surprised LBJ isn’t under the failures category.
Donald Trump has been busy with AI slop to hang with Lincoln and Washington.

This was most likely posted by his comfort child.
Wilson: Great
Coolidge: Below Average
Reagan: not even mentioned
This had better be another one of Trump’s jokes.
And it probably is.
FDR and Wilson were “great” and Coolidge was “below average”?
Scary list, and telling to boot.
> I’m not sure about Coolidge as below average. <
Coolidge was the last president to balance the budget in all the years he was in office. That alone should rate him as (at least) Good.
Oh, well. I guess no one in DC sees that as a worthy accomplishment any more.
He’s not wrong.
Right. IMO LBJ was the worst president ever. Worse than Obama and Biden.
Just ask 57,000 dead Americans, if that were possible. Not to mention his Great Society which still plagues the US.
As the midterms approach, I wonder if the party is doing anything toward increasing turn out and increasing GOP support.
Wilson was a racist who got us into a stupid war. Other than that, great President.
This had better be another one of Trump’s jokes.
And it probably is.
