Presidential scholars say it's not worth it for Bush to get involved in public spats with Trump and say it will only hurt him in the history books.

A Gallup poll conducted last month found Americans ranked Biden, 82, far beneath Presidents Donald Trump, Barack Obama and George W. Bush on critical foreign and domestic policy markers.

President Joe Biden has a lower rating than his three White House predecessors, Donald Trump, Barack Obama, and George W. Bush -- on critical policy matters such as national defence, immigration, and federal debt, according to a recent Gallup poll.

A majority of Americans say President Biden will be remembered as a below-average president, rating second-to-last in a ranking of 10 recent presidents.

A majority of Americans say the nation fell behind in key areas like race relations, crime, national defense and education in the time President Joe Biden was in office.

A new Gallup survey found over half, 54%, believe Biden will be remembered as a “below average” (17%) or “poor” (37%) president. Just 19% think he’ll be remembered as an “outstanding” (6%) or “above average” (13%) president.

The low approval ratings of Joe Biden and Donald Trump at the end of their terms may not matter as recent history suggests the legacies of U.S. presidents improve as years go by. Newsweek has contacted the White House and the Trump transition team for comment via email.

Biden and Trump have the lowest average approval ratings out of any post-World War II presidents, according to Gallup.

Donald Trump was sworn in as president for a second term Monday. His inauguration follows the 2024 presidential election, in which he defeated former Vice President Kamala Harris by 86 electoral votes. President Trump received an almost unprecedented win, cementing himself as the second president to serve two non-consecutive terms.

Trump was a historically unpopular president in his first term, and pre-inauguration polls show he’ll face the same widespread opposition in his second term.
