Donald Trump sparked widespread social media reaction after posting a presidential ranking list on his social media platform, placing himself as the 'greatest ever' - above even Abraham Lincoln and George Washington

Shocks his biggest critics? Nope. Nothing should be shocking now.

    I rank myself the greatest musician ever. Above Elvis and Michael Jackson. And I can’t even sing or play an instrument.

      He’s done more damage to the people in the US and perhaps on this planet than that one dude who invented both ethyl lead gasoline additive and Chlorofluorocarbons. And what’s most impressive is he did the vast majority of it in the last 10 years of his life.

    I take solace in knowing he will rank as one of the worst US Presidents of all time. I’m not too good on US history so I can’t say for sure if he’s the absolute worst. But at least in my living memory it’s no contest. He will be blamed for lots of impending future problems.

    Oh yeah and he’s a pedo.

      Andrew Johnson was worse. The US could have had a chance at being a decent country if reconstruction hadn’t gone the way it did. Arguably set the stage for what is currently occurring.

      I think it’s reflecting a recent poll by MAGAts, that they also give trump a higher approval than Nixon or Lincoln by a lot.

        It took Lincoln hours to die. Getting shot in the head isn’t as instant of a death as most people think.

          Especially with a black powder derringer.

    I’ve a feeling that this wanker is going to die before he gets to reap what he sowed.

    Would love to see his family and associates getting their comeuppances while he’s still alive and can see it happening.

    Not that I’m holding my breath.

A community for discussing events around the World

Rules:

  • Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:

    • Post news articles only
    • Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
    • Title must match the article headline
    • Not United States Internal News
    • Recent (Past 30 Days)
    • Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
  • Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think “Is this fair use?”, it probably isn’t. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.

  • Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed.

  • Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.

  • Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF OCTOBER 19 2025

  • Rule 5: Keep it civil. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to “Mom! He’s bugging me!” and “I’m not touching you!” Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

  • Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.

  • Rule 7: We didn’t USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you’re posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
