Andrew Jackson the woat when it comes to US presidents. The firing of his whole cabinet and replacing them with his uneducated buddies. THE INDIAN REMOVAL ACT. And him giving all of the governments gold to local banks, who then immediately sold it and crashed the economy.

Trump is bad. But he didn't crash the economy by... Ok. I'm trying to come up with a comparison but he did sort of crash the economy by not listening to those smarter than him. In a roundabout way with covid and the covid relief funding. Andrew Jackson was a little more hands on with the crash.

Still... Genocide keeps Andrew Jackson at the top of the list

True but that's as far apart as non-consentual finger insertion is from pelvic bone breaking, back-alley forced vaginal sex. Both get labeled as rape but one is several magnitudes more damaging.

Buddy, trying to justify sexual assault by saying there are worse sexual assaults is not a good look. Also, Trump rapes children.

Remember when Andrew Jackson tried to cancel our democracy because he didn't like the election results?

You also shouldn't forget Andrew Johnson, who crippled southern reconstruction, causing like 60% of our current problems.
