Reply to comment by DerekB52 in TIL In 1983, Air Force One (with Reagan aboard) landed six minutes before a microburst slammed into the ground at Andrews Air Force Base, causing wind speeds to hit 149 mph. At the time, that was the fastest wind speed ever measured by an anemometer. by theotherbogart

Pretty hard to argue against Jackson, who did his damnedest to undo Reconstruction

I guess that's fair. I would argue for Reagan, but that could be recency bias. It's hard for me to objectively judge a presidency from so long ago.

I don't think you can make the case for anyone worse than Reagan from WWII on though.
