Sources: 46. Developments: 2. Donald Trump released a personal ranking of United States presidents on his Truth Social platform. In this ranking, Trump placed himself in a unique top category labeled ‘The Greatest’, distinguishing himself from historical figures such as George Washington and Abraham Lincoln, who were categorized as ‘Great’ or ‘the greats’. The classification utilized a tiered structure including ‘semi-greats’, ‘average’, ‘below average’, and a final category described as ‘losers’, ‘failures’, or ‘Failures’. Within the bottom tier, Trump included Democratic predecessors Barack Obama, Joe Biden, and Jimmy Carter, as well as Republicans Ulysses S. Grant and Warren G. Harding. Reports noted that the graphic appeared to be a modified version of a 1948 LIFE magazine ranking. The post also contrasted with academic assessments, such as the 2024 Presidential Greatness Project, which ranked Trump last among evaluated presidents. The list notably excluded several prominent figures, including Ronald Reagan, John F. Kennedy, and both George W. Bush and George H.W. Bush. ## Timeline ### 2026-08-30: Donald Trump ranks U.S. presidents, placing himself as ‘The Greatest’ Donald Trump shared a personal ranking of U.S. presidents on Truth Social, placing himself in the ‘Greatest’ category above all others and labeling Joe Biden and Barack Obama as ‘losers’ or ‘failures’. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/donald-trump-ranks-us-presidents-placing-himself-as-the-greatest ### 2026-08-27: Donald Trump ranks himself as ‘The Greatest’ U.S. president Donald Trump shared a personal ranking on Truth Social, naming himself ‘The Greatest’ president, ahead of George Washington and Abraham Lincoln, while labeling Joe Biden and Barack Obama as ‘Failures’. 44 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/donald-trump-ranks-himself-as-the-greatest-us-president --- Cite as: Donald Trump presidential rankings on Truth Social.
