Donald Trump thinks he’s The Greatest of all 45 presidents.

In an image on Truth Social, he positions 34 presidents as Great, Near Great, Average, Below Average, and Failures.

He completely omits JFK, Lyndon Johnson, and Harry Truman.

His failures include his sworn enemies, Biden and Obama, and Jimmy Carter.

Also missing is Richard Nixon and both Bushes.

His list of “Great” presidents includes FDR, who stood against everything Trump is for. He also likes Lincoln — who would snub him if they were in the same room, as well as Jefferson, Washington, and Woodrow Wilson.

He includes in that group Andrew Jackson, who caused massive suffering with orders to displace Native Americans while he championed slavery. Jackson actually would be second or third from the bottom of an intellectually formed evaluation.

But Trump, who never attended a college class and has never read anything, has no idea what he’s talking about. It’s just mental diarrhea designed to promote himself and attack his enemies.

Of course he hates Kennedy and Johnson, who championed civil rights. You’d think he’d like Truman, who dropped the bomb on Japan. I’m sure he thinks FDR did that, even though Roosevelt was dead and had created massive opportunities for workers.

Oh, and Bill Clinton? He’s just average, even though he balanced the budget and kept us on prosperous path without hurting anyone (except, of course, Monica Lewinsky.)

What an ass.
