Rank #1 of 45

Trump Ranks #1 Overall

80.1 / 100

The data-driven methodology places Donald Trump at the top of all 45 presidents for measurable impact on Black Americans — a conclusion that defies mainstream narratives and demands engagement.

Rank #12 of 45

Lincoln Ranks #12

40.3 / 100

The Great Emancipator falls to 12th when scored on actual outcomes for Black Americans across all 9 categories — not just the single act he is remembered for.

Rank #11 of 45

Obama Ranks #11

43.5 / 100

The first Black president finishes 11th when measured by data rather than symbolism. The numbers tell a story the celebration obscured.

Rank #24 of 45

FDR Ranks #24

15.5 / 100

America's longest-serving president — architect of the New Deal — lands in the bottom half. The programs that built the middle class systematically excluded Black Americans.

Rank #8 vs #11

Nixon Outranks Obama

#8 vs #11

Richard Nixon — the man who launched the War on Drugs — scores higher than Barack Obama when measured on total policy impact for Black Americans across all categories.

Rank #17 of 45

Clinton Ranks #17

27.2 / 100

"The First Black President" finishes below the median. The 1994 Crime Bill, welfare reform, and mass incarceration weigh heavily against the saxophone and the charisma.
