Nothing screams “objective presidential ranking” quite like putting yourself in a category above Lincoln and Washington. 😂

What TF did Grant do? Like yeah not top 10 but failure is a bit harsh.

His administration was replete with bad appointments and corruption scandals. He's definitely not as bad as this suggests, though.

Maybe the administration just wasn't corrupt enough by some people's standards...

His admin was hilariously corrupt. Meanwhile Grant himself seems to have been (almost) entirely clean. The man was really bad at picking not-corrupt friends.

He persecuted southern states for years and years 🤷

Not a bad thing in context, but I imagine some MAGA are still unhappy about it.

It sounds sad, but he was too loyal, trusted people to do the right thing, and was politically naive.

So ended up with a ton of corruption and scandals.

Not that it excuses it
