Greatest President: George Washington or AAbraham Lincoln (President Birthday Month)

At the ceremony’s conclusion, Washington insisted that President Adams and Vice President Jefferson exit before he did, since he was now merely a citizen and was thus outranked. As biographer Harrison Clark put it, “The transfer of power was thus symbolically complete.”

So, I would think, but reading the Wiki about him he did quite a bit during his lifetime, and was, until Reagan, the oldest person to be elected President.

I've been told that democrats said Reagan was too old to be president.

Dumb asses will never understand why the 1%  is trillions of dollars richer and the bottom half is so much worse off because of that asshole.  Armed Saddam Husseins Iraq. Gave weapons to Iran in exchange for hostages. He armed and supported the Mujahideen rebels in Afghanistan. Birth of Bin Laden and Al Qaeda.

At least 138 Reagan administration officials, including several cabinet members, were investigated for, indicted for, or convicted of crimes. This is the largest number of any U.S. president. Many of them were pardoned by Reagan or President Bush before they could even stand trial.

Lied about the “welfare queen in Chicago” getting 150k in checks. Investigation found one woman who go 8K illegally.

He tripled the national debt in only eight years. Although Republicans blamed Congress for the deficits, all eight of the budgets Congress passed had less spending and smaller deficits than the budgets proposed by Reagan.

When he took office in 1981, unemployment was at 7.5% and dropping. A few months after his economic policies took effect, unemployment began to rise again. Millions of people continued to lose their jobs for the next two years until unemployment exceeded 10%. It stayed above 10% for nearly a year, peaking at 10.8%. Three years after he was elected, unemployment was still higher than when he was sworn in.

The financial deregulation and changes to the tax code that President Reagan enacted ultimately caused nearly 750 different financial institutions to fail. This cost taxpayers about $150 billion.


There’s more but fuck it. These assholes like a president as long as he doesn’t like brown people.  The Republican Party is such a cesspool of racist pieces of shit and knuckle draggers it’s pathetic. Eliminate women’s rights and harm the brown people is their main goal in life. Break things shoot things kill things.


Rant over


I know only Trapp read all of this.  

As president, [Washington] was particularly sensitive to the diverse interests of the new country and fervent in his efforts to prevent its fragmentation. [...]

He promoted roads, canals, the post office—anything and everything that would bind the different states and regions together. …

Never taking the unity of the country for granted, he remained preoccupied throughout his presidency with creating the sinews of nationhood. … Washington, more than anyone, promoted the sense of Union that Lincoln and others would later uphold.
