"the polls have consistently ranked James Buchanon [sic] as the worst president of the United States."

Who was being polled?
Answer that and you'll learn why such polls are not to be relied on. Polling people with a known bias is inherently to be avoided.

While on that, knowing that Wikipedia has a political political bias, who would go to it on such issues?

To be fair to Biden, its probably not accurate to say he was the worst president. More exactly we should say his was the worst presidency, since, in truth, Biden had little to do with it and little understanding of what was being done in his name. Just today, we see a story that Biden signed an Executive Order about pausing NG exports having being misled by his staff into thinking he was signing something quite different. I suspect a lot of that went on.

When historians look back on the disaster of the past four years, they'll need to build into their assessment that it was being done in Biden's name rather than by Biden.

"Trump's already floated the idea of a 3rd term in office.
Look at what Putin did. Putin selected a local
subordinate to run for President. Dmitry Medvedev. When
the man was elected he appointed Putin as Prime Minister."

The second term hasn't even started yet and the TDS crowd are already fretting about a 3rd. Truly it is said that Trump lives in the heads of the TDS crowd rent free. BTW the US doesn't have a Prime Minister!!

The inauguration timed for 4am our time tomorrow , has been moved indoors due to it being the coldest January in DC in 40 years. Thank God for global warming heh? Imagine how cold it'd be if we weren't all frying the planet!!

OTOH some are suggesting its being done due to overt threats of assassination against Trump.

mhaze,

BTW: Russia has a Prime Minister - the reference being
discussed was to Putin and how he got his position
extended. Snd today Russia has both a PM and a President.
Perhaps Trump may try to follow suit - who knows.

Trump is flooding the idea of a third term. He's got a long
history of "jokes" as a way of flooding trial balloons.

Foxy, we all know you have little understanding of the US constitution - remember how you made a fool of yourself over the Electoral college? But just look into the 22nd amendment.

OK Foxy. You believe a lot of totally bonkers stuff. I'll add it to the list, shall I?

Meanwhile, the Gaza ceasefire seems to be holding. It will, of course, at some time, unravel - Hamas can't help themselves - but for the moment the killing has stopped.

Isn't it funny how all the virtue signallers spent a year whining about the need for a ceasefire but now that Trump has delivered one, they want to whine about anything other than a ceasefire. We're gunna get four years of this head in the sand stuff - and I will enjoy every minute of it

mhaze,

Still banging on about the electoral college.

OMG - you should be more concerned about supporting
a man whose speeches lack cohesion and produce
fear, anger, grievance, and braggadocio.

Political experts have called Trump's ignorance
"breathtaking". Jeffrey Goldberg has said:

"Trump has little understanding of international
order or understanding why or how the world works
or the way it is".

To you that doesn't seem to matter at all.

You didn’t indicate in your previous post which poll you were referring to as having ranked the Biden presidency as “the worst presidency the US has known”. I have no idea which poll you were referring to. As you were the one who posted that, you should be able to find out “who was being polled”, not me.

Every poll I consulted ranked James Buchanan as the worst US president.

Polling is, of course, a serious business and to be valid, needs to follow the rules of strict neutrality and random selection of individuals representative of the population to be surveyed.

I don’t know why you mention Wikipedia. To the best of my knowledge, Wikipedia does not carry out polling.

"Still banging on about the electoral college."

Well I thought you'd learned you lesson after that monumental stuff up...but alas, the constitution still bamboozles you.

Go read the 22dn amendment.

"Jeffrey Goldberg has said:"

Oh the chap who fell hook line and sinker for Russiagate and then doubled down by falling hook line and sinker for the Hunter Laptop hoax. Yeah, let's all take notice of what he says!!

Then again Foxy fell for those as well so its no surprise she'd slavishly follow a fellow dupe.

BTW on the laptop hoax, Trump has withdrawn the security clearances of all 51 agents and former agents who perpetrated that hoax. Revenge is sweet.

Also....ceasefire!!

Banjo, you linked to Wikipedia to support your claims. Do try to keep up.

I didn't look for polling on this - its a futile effort since its impossible to get a non-biased poll. I did my own research and reached my own conclusions. I think that's better than running off to Mr Google begging to be told what you want to hear
