Tags: worst, President, ever, top 10, bad, US, United States of America, hated
Some Presidents are great, some bad, and some are the worst. These are the later:
| | Bill Clinton |
| | Franklin Pierce (1853-1857) - His fervor for expanding the borders--thereby adding several slave states--helped set the stage for the Civil War. |
| | James Buchanan (1857-1861) - He refused to challenge either the spread of slavery or the growing bloc of states that became the Confederacy. |
| | Warren G. Harding (1921-1923) - He was an ineffectual and indecisive leader who played poker while his friends plundered the U.S. treasury. |
| | Andrew Johnson (1865-1869) - He survived impeachment after opposing Reconstruction initiatives including the 14th amendment. |
| | Millard Fillmore (1850-1853) - He backed the Compromise of 1850 that delayed the Southern secession by allowing slavery to spread. |
| | John Tyler (1841-1845) - He was a stalwart defender of slavery who abandoned his party’s platform once he was president. |
| | Ulysses S. Grant (1869-1877) - Serving right after Johnson, he presided over an outbreak of graft and corruption, but had good intentions. |
| | William Harrison (1841) - He was president for all of 30 days after contracting pneumonia during his interminable inaugural. |
| | Herbert Hoover (1929-1933) - He was known as a poor communicator who fueled trade wars and exacerbated the Depression. |
| | Richard Nixon (1969-1974) - Though politically gifted, he will forever be associated with the Watergate scandal and his resignation. |
| | Zachary Taylor (1849-1850) - A political novice, the war hero is entirely forgettable as president. |
| | Bill Clinton |
