[VIDEO] On January 20, 2025, the United States of America will inaugurate the 47th President in Donald J. Trump. Who knows what his legacy will be once he leaves office.
Bill O'Reilly in a special on NewsNation discusses his book Confronting the Presidents besides being a "news analyst" his other passion is as a historian. He brags about his "best sellers" and this is one of many of his books.
His 5 worst presidents is surprising.
5. Franklin Pierce (1853-1857)
4. John Tyler (1841-1845)
3. Lyndon B. Johnson (1963-1969)
2. Joe Biden (2021-2025)
1. I already known James Buchanan (1857-1861)
Franklin Pierce served immediately before James Buchanan both presidents are considered a failure. Buchanan especially because he allowed the United States to split apart before his far more successful successor Abraham Lincoln took office.
John Tyler succeeded William Henry Harrison as president (he only served 31 days in office before his passing). He was unable to govern and O'Reilly sites Tyler's absolute support for slavery as why he ranks him as the fourth worst President.
What makes Lyndon Johnson the worst was the Vietnam War. Also they noted some aspects of his personality basically very crude and bullying. However, I would agree his conduct of the Vietnam War hampers his historic legacy which includes the Civil Rights Act, the Voting Rights Act, and even the War on Poverty.
Joe Biden well where do we start with him. He's still our president until at least January 20, 2025. And it's amazing he's already on this list. They cite the troubled withdrawal from Afghanistan, others may cite America's standing in the world since he became President, his cognitive disabilities, etc. Well I'm sure O'Reilly goes further than I do here.
And let's not forget about the 5 best Presidents. However, you have to watch the video to find out.
