Yes. Washington/Lincoln should be 1 and 2. Without either, USA wouldn't
Be US today. However, remove Washington's military accomplishment and just view his presidency by itself, I think an argument could be made to place FDR above guiding US through WW2 and emerge as global power.
Not a fan of Wilson, but wouldn't put him next to last.
Agree on recent president shouldn't be ranked. Obama probably should be the most recently ranked president. And I think Trump as president is about average. It is what he did after the election that makes him near the bottom for me. We'll see more clearly in 10, 20 years how much damage he really did to our democracy.
