Let’s face it\u2014Donald Trump has logged one of the worst political years of any modern American president, save perhaps Richard Nixon, who was actually driven from office in 1974. From his abysmal domestic and foreign policy to his administration’s boundless corruption, Trump’s incompetence has really outshined that of every U.S. commander in chief dating back to Watergate.
