Adjectives like best and worst or good and bad are subjective. Every four years, historians come together to publish a survey ranking all the presidents in United States history. Historians never label the top and bottom of the list as good or bad; they rank presidents based on their accomplishments, legacy, and historical impact. Success and failure can also be subjective on the surface, but one way to measure a president’s success or failure is his popularity, because the presidency derives its power from the people.

Putting a billionaire back in the White House and hoping he would solve the economic problems of the working class never made sense, but that’s exactly what white working-class voters did in the 2024 presidential election.Trump immediately took office and demonstrated why this was not a good idea, as within months he launched a trade war and declared that inflation had been corrected, even though that was certainly not the case. Most voters, when forced to choose between what’s happening in their own finances or a politician’s sales pitch, will defer to their own experiences.The economy is a problem that…
