This page has sections for Rankings of U.S. Presidents, Dis-endorsements of Trump, and Trump’s Facist rants.
These rankings, and dis-endorsements take into account the main reasons given by many Trump supporters voting for Trump; the Trump economy and Trump policies on immigration and the border.
To vote for Trump one must be: willfully ignorant of these facts, or hold values misaligned with those of the expert presidential rankers and dis-endorsers. By ‘misaligned values’ I mean that these Trump supporters have to tolerate sedition, corruption, unhinged ranting, idiotic hyperbole, and phenomenal mendaciousness expecting that Trump will deliver on some worthwhile goals.
The grip Trump has on the MAGA cult never fails to astonish me.

Joe Biden has not been included, and Grover Cleveland, who served as the 22nd and 24th U.S. President, has been counted as a single entry.
142 “historians, professors, and other professional observers of the presidency” were asked to rank the 44 U.S. presidents in ten areas of leadership, on a scale of one (“not effective”) to ten (“very effective”). The scores were then tabulated and averaged, to give a score out of 100 for each category, and a total score out of 1,000.

The survey, conducted online in late 2023, combined the responses of 154 experts — current or recent members of the American Political Science Association’s presidential politics division as well as scholars who recently published peer-reviewed research in related journals or academic presses. Respondents were asked to rate presidents on a scale of 0 to 100 — 0 for failure, 50 for average and 100 for great.
Dis-Endorsements of Tump for 2024 Presidential Campaign
Of the 42 people who worked in President Donald Trump’s Cabinet, just over half support his bid for another term.
What can I add that has not already been said?” Kelly said, when asked if he wanted to weigh in on his former boss in light of recent comments made by other former Trump officials. “A person that thinks those who defend their country in uniform, or are shot down or seriously wounded in combat, or spend years being tortured as POWs are all ‘suckers’ because ‘there is nothing in it for them.’
A person that did not want to be seen in the presence of military amputees because ‘it doesn’t look good for me.’ A person who demonstrated open contempt for a Gold Star family – for all Gold Star families – on TV during the 2016 campaign, and rants that our most precious heroes who gave their lives in America’s defense are ‘losers’ and wouldn’t visit their graves in France.
“A person who is not truthful regarding his position on the protection of unborn life, on women, on minorities, on evangelical Christians, on Jews, on working men and women,” Kelly continued. “A person that has no idea what America stands for and has no idea what America is all about. A person who cavalierly suggests that a selfless warrior who has served his country for 40 years in peacetime and war should lose his life for treason – in expectation that someone will take action. A person who admires autocrats and murderous dictators. A person that has nothing but contempt for our democratic institutions, our Constitution, and the rule of law.
“There is nothing more that can be said,” Kelly concluded. “God help us.” – John Kelly in Jake Taper interview Oct 3, 2023
Thank you for your support against a total degenerate named John Kelly, who made up a story out of pure Trump Derangement Syndrome Hatred! This guy had two qualities, which don’t work well together. He was tough and dumb. The problem is his toughness morphed into weakness,…
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 24, 2024
It takes a MAGA to believe ScuMbag Mendacious Trump over John Kelly.
“It’s really hard to have a conversation with someone who doesn’t even understand the concept for why we’re talking about this.
“Trump is unfit to be president,” Bolton wrote in the new foreword to “The Room Where it Happened,” his account of the 17 months he spent as Trump’s national security adviser. “If his first four years were bad, a second four will be worse.”
“Trump really cares only about retribution for himself, and it will consume much of a second term,” he wrote in the forward to the paperback edition of his memoir, which painted a bleak picture of America during a second Trump term.

“I believe anyone that puts themselves over the Constitution should never be president of the United States and anyone who asks someone else to put them over the Constitution should never be president of the United States again,” Pence said during his campaign launch speech.
Retired General Mark Milley, and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff 2019 – 2023
Milley, 66, served for more than a year as chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff under Trump before continuing in the role under President Joe Biden.
Upon stepping down in September 2023 after more than 40 years in the military, Milley laid out his apparent concerns about Trump in a pointed retirement speech. “We don’t take an oath to a king, or a queen, to a tyrant or dictator or wannabe dictator,” he said.
“No one has ever been as dangerous to this country as Donald Trump.” ” Now I realize he’s a total fascist. He is the most dangerous person in this country”. A “fascist to the core”.
Daniel Coats
Former director of national intelligence
He doesn’t know the difference between the truth and a lie.
– Washington Post journalist Bob Woodward’s book, “Rage,” Sept. 14, 2021
Jim Mattis
Former defense secretary
Today’s violent assault on our Capitol, an effort to subjugate American democracy by mob rule, was fomented by Mr. Trump.
– The Atlantic, Sept. 21, 2023
Former Wyoming House of Representative Liz Cheney
“Our republic faces a threat unlike any we have faced before,” Cheney said, pointing to Trump’s efforts to overturn the 2020 election results.
“What January 6th shows us,” Cheney said, “is that there is not an ounce, not an ounce, of compassion in Donald Trump. He is petty, he is vindictive and he is cruel. And Donald Trump is not fit to lead this good and great nation.”
Former Illinois Rep. Adam Kinzinger
The ex-congressman spoke at the Democratic National Convention in August, where he said the GOP has “switched its allegiance from the principles that gave it purpose to a man whose only purpose is itself.”
- He told GOP voters to “vote for our bedrock values and vote for Kamala Harris.”
The intrigue: He told Deadline last month he would “certainly” accept a cabinet post under Harris if offered one.
Former Vice President Dick Cheney
Former Vice President Dick Cheney, who once supported the former president, said he would vote for Harris, warning in a statement that he believed Trump “can never be trusted with power again.”
- “In our nation’s 248-year history, there has never been an individual who is a greater threat to our republic than Donald Trump,” he said in a statement in September.
- The former vice president publicly changed his tune on Trump after the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.
Former Arizona Sen. Jeff Flake
Flake, who served in Congress for close to two decades, said he would support the Democratic ticket earlier this week, citing his experience working with Walz in the House and Harris in the Senate.
- “I would encourage all Republicans who feel this way to do the same,” he said in a post to X.
What he’s saying: In a recent appearance on ABC’s “This Week,” Flake said he can’t endorse a candidate who “tries to use the powers of the presidency to overturn” an election without mentioning Trump by name.
Former Georgia Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan
Duncan, who opposed Trump’s efforts to overturn the 2020 election, said at the DNC that Republicans who opted to vote for Harris were patriots.
- In May, he endorsed President Biden (before the president bowed out of the 2024 race), labeling Trump “a criminal defendant without a moral compass.”
Ex-Trump White House officials endorse Harris
Former White House Communications Director Anthony Scaramucci and Press Secretary Stephanie Grisham have joined other members of the former administration’s staff choosing not to back him in 2024.
- Scaramucci, speaking to MSNBC the night of the first debate between Harris and Trump, said “She [Harris] is the person dedicated to service — he’s the person that’s dedicated to self-service.”
- Grisham spoke at the DNC. She told the crowd, “Kamala Harris tells the truth. She respects the American people and she has my vote.”
Cassidy Hutchinson, a former Trump aide who delivered key testimony to the House Jan. 6 committee, endorsed Harris Wednesday, saying she’s “really, really proud” to vote for the Democratic ticket.
- “Donald Trump and JD Vance cannot be trusted with the Constitution,” she said on MSNBC. “They cannot be trusted to uphold our rule of law, and they can’t be trusted to enact responsible policy.”
Zoom out: Other former Trump administration and Republican officials, like former Vice President Mike Pence, have refused to endorse Trump but have stopped short of endorsing the Democratic ticket.

Bill Barr Endorses Trump
Bill Barr – Pre Grovel
PBS News Hour 08/03/2023
“WILLIAM BARR: Well, this case is a more serious – – first, I don’t think Alvin Bragg’s case is a legitimate case.
I think it — that is a political hit.
And what’s being alleged here is that he knew that he lost the election, he knew that the claims of a stolen election were false, and yet he decided he was going to try to stay in office by subverting that process, by putting out misinformation, but, more important, by putting out these false panels of electors and presenting them to Congress and trying to push the vice president to make these decisions to suppress the legitimate votes.
I mean, that was outrageous.
And putting aside whether it’s criminal or know, it — I don’t see how the Republican Party could nominate someone who’s capable of doing something like that.”
“Someone who engaged in that kind of bullying about a process that is fundamental to our system and to our self-government shouldn’t be anywhere near the Oval Office.”

The project aims to promote conservative and right-wing policies to reshape the federal government of the United States and consolidate executive power under the premise that Donald Trump wins the 2024 presidential election.[5][6]
Project 2025 is the ninth iteration of the Mandate for Leadership series, published since 1981. The project asserts a controversial interpretation of the unitary executive theory, according to which the entire executive branch is under the complete control of the U.S. president. It proposes reclassifying tens of thousands of federal civil service workers as political appointees in order to replace them with people loyal to the president. Proponents of the project argue it would dismantle what they view as a vast, unaccountable, and mostly liberal governmental bureaucracy. The project also seeks to infuse the government and society with conservative Christian values. Critics have characterized Project 2025 as an authoritarian, Christian nationalist plan to steer the U.S. toward autocracy. Legal experts have said it would undermine the rule of law, separation of powers, separation of church and state, and civil liberties. –
Others have noted that Trump’s name appears over 300 times in the document.
Project 2025 is “built on four pillars”:
- The 30-chapter, 920-page book Mandate for Leadership: The Conservative Promise, which presents “a consensus view of how major federal agencies must be governed”
- A personnel database to “be collated and shared with the President-elect’s team”, open to the public for submissions
- An “online educational system” called the Presidential Administration Academy
- A “playbook” designed for “forming agency teams and drafting transition plans to move out upon the President’s utterance of ‘so help me God.’”
