Trump declares himself ‘greatest’ US president

President Donald Trump has released a self-created ranking of U.S. presidents, placing himself at the top as 'The Greatest' while labeling Joe Biden and Barack Obama as 'failures.' The ranking categorizes presidents into six tiers, with Trump alone occupying the highest level. Lincoln and Washington are placed one tier below him, while other notable figures like Roosevelt and Jefferson are categorized as 'Great.' Biden and Obama are grouped with other Democrats and past presidents considered less successful. The graphic appears to be based on a 1948 LIFE magazine ranking but includes Trump's addition and omits several historically significant presidents. Trump's approval ratings have declined significantly during his second term, according to recent polls.
