I agree. All the presidents have committed atrocities.

Reagan has the most corrupt regime until Trump.



Yeah. 2016 was not a good year for the Clinton name. They've both been corrupt for decades, but at least Bill had the fortune of being President during what seemed like a good time to be President. JFK is interesting because even though he was a Democrat, he said things that a lot of modern Democrats wouldn't like very much, which makes him popular amongst both sides. In fact, while he was by no means a Libertarian, even Libertarians kind of liked him because he publicly spoke about corruption of the military industrial complex, his dislike of the CIA, and why maintaining the gold standard is important. As we all know, he got killed, the military industrial complex got bigger and worse, the CIA got more powerful and we abandoned gold in 1971.

Bill Clinton's name being dragged through the mud while Reagan gets a pass for destroying the middle class is a joke.

Bill Clinton led the US to the strongest economy and largest job growth in the last 50 years, even prior to the internet boom in his first term, job growth was booming. Reagan caused the country to go into huge debt because of his tax breaks to the mega-rich.

Republicans are all about their little smear campaigns and not actual results.

If only they could be like the benevolent leaders of your country.

And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."

Ronald Reagan was absolutely the worst president the country has elected to date.

All the 1% crap started with his administration.

So true the best two president the US ever had was FDR and LBJ.  But LBJ could have been a whole lot better if he didn't escalate the conflict in Vietnam.



The thing is Clinton just took Reagan neo liberal economic thinking and changed it with a more democrats touch.

That is why many on the left dont like him either.

Yeah, that was when the eastern bloc fell and the former isolated Soviet market opened to west, which lead to global economic growth. I remember viewing Bill Clinton as a freerider who had nothing to do because of how things were in the world.

And, I'd like to point out, that if you think Reagan distroyed the middle class, it was, because of that, actually him who laid foundation for the job growth during the Clinton term. This is because middle class is expensive workforce, while jobs usually grow where it's cheap. This is also why the governments all over the world are driving the middle class to lower class workforce.
