He was by far, the most incompetent President of the last 50 years.
After 2 years of bungling the Iran Hostage situation, it took Ronald Reagan only a few hours to have the hostages freed.
He gave away the Panama Canal, after campaigning on a platform that aggressively condemned any plans to give up the Canal Zone.
Then he was one of the few former Presidents who actively sought to undermine subsequent Presidents, with his constant meddling in foreign affairs.
Of any President in the last 50 years, he was the one most disliked by the agency we pay to protect our Presidents.
His legacy is that of a bumbling fool, who was only elected because the prior President couldn't get elected dog catcher, after his short term in office and pardoning of Nixon.
