> And what about our current president? Most historians – and public opinion – do not give President Trump particularly high marks after 15 months in office. Yet his predicted greatness score (score=33.53) is one of the highest of all presidents – surpassed only by George Washington (score=34.37), Thomas Jefferson (score=34.70), Lyndon Baines Johnson (score=35.77) and Abraham Lincoln (score=37.51).

Well, that pretty much does it for this "greatness score".


I don't know, he's not totally out of the running yet. All he needs to do is get some momentum with the right moment, it's anyone's game still. I think the recent war in Israel-Palestine is the exact kind of issue someone like him/his team would exploit to get emotions all riled up.


Is Trump's predicted greatness score based on his actual weight or the visibly ridiculous weight he claims?
