To do this, they asked respondents to rate each president on a scale of 0 -- 1100 for their overall greatness, with 0 equal to failure, 50 average , and 100 great. They then averaged the ratings for each president and ranked them from highest avcerage to lowest.
The survey showed Trump ranked last.
Abraham Lincoln, who won the Civil Warand ended slavery, was ranked dfirst , ahead of Franklin Delano Roosevelt, who saw the U.S. through the Great Depression and the Second World War.
