Mr. Biden’s signature accomplishment, according to the historians, was evicting Donald J. Trump from the Oval Office.
President Biden has not had a lot of fun perusing polls lately. He has a lower approval rating than every president going back to Dwight D. Eisenhower at this stage of their tenures, and he trails former President Donald J. Trump in a fall rematch. But Mr. Biden can take solace from one survey in which he is way out in front of Mr. Trump.
A new poll of historians coming out on Presidents’ Day weekend ranks Mr. Biden as the 14th-best president in American history, just ahead of Woodrow Wilson, Ronald Reagan and Ulysses S. Grant. While that may not get Mr. Biden a spot on Mount Rushmore, it certainly puts him well ahead of Mr. Trump, who places dead last as the worst president ever.

When you see the word “project” in a title, you know there is a foregone outcome.
Biden’s only actual accomplishment would be the infrastructure bill which was just a huge waste of money. Not sure what else he did. Trump should be ranked a lot higher for at least not starting a new war , which doesn’t sound like an accomplishment but it’s better than the last bunch of presidents
Let me guess all these historians just loved the scholarly work of Hannah-Jones.
Where was this poll taken? NYC? Washington D.C.?
Fani’s backside.
I’m betting that they actually polled those 51 “intelligence” officials...
“Smart Stupid People,” is the term Dan Bongino uses for these idiots.
I thought they closed all the insane asylums.

Pure unadulterated crap

Yep...and it’s only going to get worse. I saw this yesterday and just laughed at it. There will be some rubes out there that will fall for this hook line and sinker.
Bottom 5: Biden, Wilson, FDR, LBJ, Andrew Johnson
JANE LONG: Fani’s backside.
RLMOREL: That can't be right. It said there were 154 "scholars" in there. There had to be a lot more, because there is certainly room for them.

now why do they even do these stupid lists...its all left wing psychos writing them...
For such a poll, if it ever happened, to have ANY credibility they would have to publish WHO was polled. The underlying data I’m sure would show it was mainly democrats that were polled. Democrats would spit on their own mother if it would advance the ball on a political issue.
Baghdad Bob found a new job, I see.
😂😂😂🤣
You are right on, about that!
New time, I’ll have to say I was being sarcastic. However, most “historians” are far left...
The Times got it wrong. It was a poll of political scientists, not historians.
When it comes to which president should join Presidents Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln, and Teddy Roosevelt on Mt. Rushmore, Franklin Delano Roosevelt again comes in first, by a wide margin (65.4%). Barack Obama came in second (11%), followed by a three-way tie between Dwight Eisenhower, James Madison, and John F. Kennedy (4% each)
Idiots.
They also asked the "experts" to say who they thought was "most overrated" and "most underrated."
Jimmy Carter is the most under-rated president, selected by 64 respondents and earning a 2.2 average (1 is a “most under-rated” ranking). Ulysses Grant is the second-most under-rated (56, 2.4), followed by George H.W. Bush (47, 2.9), Eisenhower (45, 2.8), Lyndon Johnson (43 (2.3), and Biden (42, 2.9). Conversely, John F. Kennedy is considered the most over-rated president, selected by 84 respondents and earning a 2.4 average (1 is a “most over-rated” ranking), followed very closely by Ronald Reagan (83, 2.1), then Jackson (70, 2.3), Wilson (60, 2.9), Jefferson (37, 3.3), and Teddy Roosevelt (40, 2.5).
Kennedy is indeed overrated, but it took them 50 years to realize it. Maybe in another 50 years they'll realize they overrated Obama.
And Reagan overrated? Not if Biden, Kennedy, and Obama are judged better than he is.
The "overrateds" indicate the folly of the question. By the time "experts" decide someone is "overrated" they've already downgraded and underrated him.
Reagan was originally low in the polls and rose as respondents realized their mistake. Now he's falling again and they think he is overrated.
But Jimmy Carter as most underrated? Ridiculous. The "experts" forget more than they ever manage to learn.
