How the Three Worst Presidents in History Brought an End to the Party of Lincoln

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart

Ronald Reagan, George W. Bush, and Donald Trump are responsible for the demise of the Party of Lincoln. Those who call themselves “Republicans” today are imposters. They have no resemblance to their predecessors. Ten years ago they surrendered their integrity, principles, and morals to Putin’s puppet. They are more appropriately called the “American Nazi Party” in 2025.

After years of research, reading and re-reading the history of America’s 249 years, I am positive that Reagan, Bush, and Trump are the three worst presidents in America’s 249-year history. Their actions, demands, and policies forced the demise of the once Grand Old Party.

These three old, white men ignored the needs and wishes of the majority of our nation’s people, choosing to serve our country’s wealthiest men and women: billionaires/oligarchs.

Reagan, Bush, and Trump share many qualities, none of them positive, progressive, or relevant to making America a great country.

All three wannabe dictators demanded unfettered loyalty. Records show that not a single member of the Republican Party refused to vote in support of policies and ambitions of the three self-serving incompetents.

Their demands caused the dysfunction which exists on Capitol Hill today. Our nation’s two major political parties have become enemies. “Republicans” refuse to engage in honest and sincere deliberation with their Democratic counterparts. Compromise is out of the question.

Reagan was more secretive and more intelligent than Bush and Trump. Little is known about his affiliation with leaders of foreign nations.

The Bush family had close ties to the Saudi Royal Family. One incident reveals what may offer proof that their relationship bordered on criminal activities, and possibly treason.

After the cowardly attacks on 9/11, all air traffic other than by the United States military was grounded. However, members of the Saudi Royal family were allowed to leave American soil on their private aircraft and return to Saudi Arabia. There is no record of who the passengers were on that flight.

Remember, 15 of the 19 hijackers on 9/11 were Saudi nationals. The architect of the attacks on American soil, Osama bin Laden, was a member of the Royal Family.

Trump and Putin are “brothers from another mother.” Since 1987 they have maintained a secret and controversial relationship.

Watchdog groups, devoted to discovering corruption within our government, continue to gather information about the 2016 and 2024 elections. It is becoming clear that not only did Putin interfere in the 2016, 2020, and 2024 elections, Russian hackers succeeded in 2016 and 2024.

Today, Trump is once again your illegitimate president.

Trump continues to protect Putin’s interests and offered him his praise and admiration more than 80 times over the last 10 years.

All three men served their oligarchs: placing their bloated profits ahead of the quality of life for the majority. Each added trillions of dollars to the national debt, while their rich friends placed billions of dollars in offshore accounts.

The former Republican Party was in their way. Dissention, free thought, and exercising their rights to free speech threatened their destructive plans for America’s future. Power meant everything to these traitors. They could not allow a single man or woman running for office under the “Republican” banner to take sides with Democrats. Although there is no question about Trump being a dictator, Reagan and Bush were no better.

While they were satisfying their own ambitions, their fiscal policy of “trickle-down economics” destroyed America’s economy.

Bush is responsible for our country’s involvement in two unwinnable wars. The cost of those wars, lives and money, moved our nation close to another Great Depression by 2009.

Trump chose to ignore a rapidly approaching healthcare emergency. By the time he was evicted from the White House in 2021, another depression was looming, and more than one million American lives were lost.

Reagan, Bush, and Trump altered America’s future in the 21st century and very likely for many decades to come. The once respected Party of Lincoln has been erased and is nothing more than a memory. For Independent voters, like me, this is both sad and a travesty for the future of our Founding Father’s efforts to create the greatest country in the world.
