I had very low expectations for Biden upon his election, I was kind of hopefuly he would just not really do anything either way, but I admit I did not expect him to so enthusiastically throw himself into the worst President in US history competition.

He has some very stiff competition, but he is really giving it his all.

I still put Nixon and Bush Sr/Jr above Genocide Joe; both have a higher body count.

Top 5 for sure though

Biden also pushed for the Iraq war on the Democrat side so he is also guilty there, may be not to the same proportion so your assertion is probably correct. Nixon also likely did more damage so you are correct there too. TLDR, I think you are right. All of them have bloody hands.

The position of US president is just a competition of who can be the most evil horrid person imaginable.

I can't believe Joe Biden is really what liberals cooked up to fight against Trump. Kinda pathetic tbh

Even more than Reagan? lmao damn

[–] Addfwyn@lemmygrad.ml 22 points 10 months ago (1 children)

In terms of pure hatred, probably. Reagan had a lot of people who actually really liked him. Not for good reason, but they did.

There's a small demographic of batshit cultists who do legitimately like Biden, but I have to imagine that number is much smaller than people who liked Reagan. Mostly it's people who either are scared of Trump (as per design) or just vote for whoever the blue guy is to begin with.

At least Reagan stood for something. People who agree with what he stood for will like him for that and many others will respect him for it. They'd all be wrong, but that's irrelevant.

What does Biden stand for? Not being Trump or a woman? It won't stop lib-libs voting for him again but they shouldn't wonder why mass murderer masquerading as a bland slice of under-toasted, really thin sliced-bread is detested by most right-thinking and right-wing people alike.

Biden stands for the genocide of Palestine and the antisemitic zionist lie that all Jewish people are inherently genocidal.

[–] redtea@lemmygrad.ml 4 points 10 months ago (1 children)

There is that. Is he openly admitting it now? Unfortunately, there's a large enough crowd who would love him for doing so. Probably most of the same crowd who say vote blue to avoid the GOP but really want everyone to vote blue simply because they agree with genocide and antisemitism.

They're should be polls for this every once in a while right?

In American history? Not even close.

James Buchanan was so god awful as a person and a president, that his actions and inaction directly lead to the American Civil War and the rise of an armed Confederacy.

He is one of the 4 US presidents so bad that they only served one term, and he was despised by both sides of the isle for his absolute disaster of a presidency. The United States actively regressed under his 4 year tenure.
