I read comments on #qoto recently that Trump is the Worst President Ever. Are there objective measures that can be used in such a claim? Or is it more meaning something more : of everyone who is president of the USA in 2020, he's my least favorite?
(Sometimes it's hard to tell if the level of political commentary is like my 3 year old declaring it's the Worst Day Ever when she can't get a third serving of ice cream.)

Sure it's measurable. Count the fact-checks of his statements that comprise ignorance, lies, or confusion. Trump has the most, hands down.
Count the number of psychologists that have questioned a President's competence. No President has ever had as many as Trump.
@sda
The total metrics for judging a president's ranking in history is how many statements are fact checked and what percent of those are claimed to be false, and how many psychologists diagnose from a distance the president who is not their patient.
Not how I would have chosen how to rank a president, but they are at least both measurable things.
