A new ranking of presidents by a group of self-styled experts determined that Abraham Lincoln is America's greatest president, while Donald Trump ranks last.

Lincoln topped the list of presidents in the 2024 Presidential Greatness Project expert survey for the third time, following his top spot in the rankings in the 2015 and 2018 versions of the survey.

According to a release from the Presidential Greatness Project, which touts itself as the "foremost organization of social science experts in presidential politics," the 154 respondents to the survey included "current and recent members of the Presidents & Executive Politics Section of the American Political Science Association…as well as scholars who have recently published peer-reviewed academic research in key related scholarly journals or academic presses."

That D after Biden’s name sure is magical.


According to Northeastern Illinois University, a D belongs after Lincoln’s name too. A plaque on a building reads ‘Abraham Lincoln, Democrat’.

‘Self styled’ is the key take away in this absurd ranking.
As always, the brain dead liberal morons have everything exactly backwards. Trump and Reagan are the two most significant presidents of the last 100 years.
Here’s an easy way to illustrate the liberal mind set.
They turned Washington’s birthday and Lincoln’s birthday into a single holiday, President’s Day.
And the reason is jealousy. Both Washington and Lincoln were conservatives. Washington’s Whig Party eventually became the Republican Party, and Lincoln was the first elected Republican president.
There are no democrat presidents who come within a mile of the greatness and contributions to liberty or America than Washington or Lincoln.
In the liberal quest to raise their own slovenly, and in many cases, despicable presidents to the same level of greatness as Washington and Lincoln, and in an effort to erase the tremendous accomplishments of republican presidents, they combined both traditional national holidays that recognize the towering achievements of Washington and Lincoln into a single holiday called ‘Presidents Day’.
This is a weak and transparent attempt to raise the ineffective, incompetent and at times treasonous administrations of democrats, like Buchanan, Wilson, Clinton, Obama and Biden to the same level as Washington and Lincoln.
Nice try, democrats, but people still revere the great conservative presidents, and have zero respect for the clowns that democrats try to elevate to the same level.

These sorts of rankings all depend on the criteria used to evaluate a president.

Do they give higher rankings for wartime presidents? Presidents who presided during a depression? Presidents who were there during historic events, whether or not that President influenced such events?

Re: "Jackson would have done the same thing, maybe more."

Andrew Jackson, I presume?

As I recall, Andrew Jackson was one of the original founders of the Democratic Party.

When the political sledding gets rough, the first thing Democrats wish for is a totalitarian dictator.

That was my post. Jackson is the only President to retire the National Debt.

it’s safe for liberals to favor Lincoln now because they know the average person on the street doesn’t think he was a Republican.

IMHO, all the 21st century Presidents were failures except Donald Trump!

The most successful Presidents in my lifetime were Nixon, Reagan, and Trump!

Washington was #1, and Lincoln #2.

This “foremost organization of social science experts in presidential politics” must have gotten ahold of some bad, mind-altering drugs.

These “self-styled experts” certainly are self-styled but they are anything but experts.

"According to a release from the Presidential Greatness Project, which touts itself as the 'foremost organization of social science experts in presidential politics,'"

Is that a Harvard study?
