| A. Johnson, Buchanan, Trump |
An additional 8% say he will be remembered as below average, while 22% say one of the greatest, 16% say above average and 10% say below average. [Not sure what the two below average numbers mean.]
Still, it's very clear that historians and a lot of voters believe history will remember Trump as one of the worst ever, while a not insignificant amount will see him as one of the best ever.
No president has garnered as many strongly negative feelings as Trump. The only president who came even close to getting as many low ratings (in a five-category question) was George W. Bush in a Gallup poll at the end of his presidency; 36% said he would go down as a "poor" president.
The high percentage of Americans who say Trump will go down as one of the worst presidents lines up with what historians have been saying for years. Trump has generally been rated with James Buchanan as the worst president ever. This has been consistent across different surveys of experts.
Note: *Fox News generally favors Trump.
