Abraham Lincoln before and after the war should be different categories
Yeah he looks like he has shell-shock in that picture

Not that I care a lot, but putting GW above HW is a wild take. They both sucked, but only one of them ate paste and called his teacher “mom.”
Really depends. The title says it’s by how much it looks like they have a soul behind them eyes. W looks like he’s got one. And that’s what made him as dangerous as he was. “I wanna have a beer with the man!”
Go have a fucking beer with him, then, but don’t give him access to the fucking oval Office!
You are correct that I wanted this ranking to be independent of any actual knowledge and instead solely off of surface level reading of their appearance
In that case, I think you did a good job. Though I’d probably have place Ike higher. He looks like he has a soul to me. A weird one. Like a soul that buys used undies from vending machines lol
It’s really unnerving for me seeing old clips and pics of W in contrast to Trump. Don’t get me wrong W doesn’t deserve an ounce of forgiveness or leniency in perception of him. And his likability was what made him so dangerous.
But he also just feels like an actual human being, someone who enjoys things and has interests outside of using others for his own aggrandizement. Trump even when he’s being goofy is just fucking cruel and selfish about everything to everyone that isn’t kissing his ass.
The bar is below the floor
Can someone find W in the Epstein files please so I can be equally disgusted with both again.
I can’t believe Truman and Nixon got ranked C and Eisenhower got an F. I mean Eisenhower slaughtered a lot of people and oversaw the US drop an unbelievable amount of explosives on people, but he at least recognised the evil he had unleashed and felt sorrow for what his legacy was.
Yeah but Eisenhower looks like a crazy person in his portrait, and Nixon looks intelligent. That’s all they were ranking it on.
Surely then GWB should rank higher, he’s actually smiling, and FDR looks like whatever soul he had has been crushed into oblivion
and nixon (and reagan, too!) were elected through fucking treason.

Truman was a schlub backwater senator who should never have been a contender for the primary but ended up robbing the US of George Wallace

Right? He was a president who came out of the military during WW2. Not sure what people expected, a conscientious objector? The times got what the times were, no other kind of person would have been elected so soon postwar. Heck, he even advised that gunhappy ass MacArthur not to get involved in the Bonus Army debacle and pushed back against McCarthyism. Eisenhower, as much as he could, wanted to rein in the MIC in his “Chance for Peace” speech. Balanced against any modern president’s failings and with his social and public works programs I think the vast majority of people would find it a relief to have a president like him today.
It would be a relief to have a baked potato as a president over what we have today.
Calvin Coolidge
Is that Taft in the S tier? And Teddy Roosevelt? Funny considering they had a falling out in 1912(?). Taft set a high bar for President. Probably the 2nd best President of the 20th century (FDR being the 1st). Back when the US had decent politicians.
Weird, it’s almost like capitalism ruins everything. GET THE MONEY OUT OF POLITICS. Before it kills us all…
This is why Taft deserves S-tier.

I need data correlating my soul read to their presidential aptitude and measured ethicality

Taft was a senator, the President, and the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. He was very active in busting up monopolies. He was responsible for the direct elections of senators. He was a dedicated jurist and a true American intellectual. But the only thing he gets rembered for is being 300lbs. And having a bigger bathtub installed in the White House.
We need less racism, not more.

Oh? If were are making absurd, unfounded claims, then im gonna label you a racist. 🙂
No joe biden?
I think it’s just old, but it’s still missing 2 presidents if I didn’t count wrong.
Fixed, in the most convenient way possible
Was thinkikg the same
Am I stupid (yes) or is Biden not on here?
Yes and yes. He’s in B
B for Biden.
Hold your applause, please.
Nixon is F
Obligatory Andrew Jackson: Most Terrifying Man Ever Elected President
How in the hot holy fuck can you look at Wilson and NOT put that condescending racist anywhere above F?
You would be suprised how much of an unknown Wilson is to many people. Most just see him as that one smart looking prez with round glasses that is not Teddy. Also text books in America tend to skim past his associations with the Klan. At least the ones I’ve read and was taught from.
Ike had a bunch of problems and I know its about looks but seeing him next to Trump seems so incorrect
Ike is 100% a haunted plastic doll
Ok that’s fair, although that is giving, extremely detailed French street marionette
I feel feel like you’re judging the glosses on Truman too much
Truman’s glasses make him an enigma, perfectly balanced in the imperceptible centerpoint of C tier

That’s not what it’s measuring though lol

It’s in the title
It’s literally the title of the post
Bush was indeed a war criminal and needs to be in prison but hard to say his eyes are soulless
