Kayleigh McEnany reacts to her old boss Donald Trump being named the worst president ever

Former White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany has responded to a new poll that named Donald Trump as the worst president in US history.

The Fox News host said on Monday she found it “infuriating in so many ways” that Donald Trump came in last in a poll ranking all US presidents.

The survey was launched by the “Presidential Greatness Project” and asked academics to rank each of the 45 people who have served as president from George Washington to Joe Biden.

“They are the ivory-tower elites who in no way represent the view of the American people,” Ms McEnany said of the survey’s 154 respondents.

Ms McEnany continued by saying it was “fair” that the survey ranked Abraham Lincoln in first place, however, she was less impressed by the ranking Donald Trump had received in relation to Democrats Barack Obama and Joe Biden.

“Then comes Obama at seventh and Biden came in 14th, actually beating Ronald Reagan, who came in 16th, and Trump, dead last,” she said.

Mr Trump scored just 10.9/100 in the survey, which also branded him the “most polarising” president.

Among Republican scholars who took part in the survey, Mr Trump ranked in 41st place out of the 45 candidates.

The former president is currently facing a combined 91 criminal counts in four separate cases, including one centered around the January 6 attack on the US Capitol, which was carried out by his supporters trying to block the certification of the election and keep him in power despite losing.

Following Ms McEnany’s remarks, plenty of X users rushed to remind the former White House press secretary of this.
