Based takes on US Presidents:

Washington - The greatest thing he did was to step away. He gave Hamilton too much credit for the growth of the economy when it was central banking taking from the future.

Jackson - He did the right thing in ending the Second Central Bank. His presidency was one of the best ever. Unfortunately, he controlled things a bit too much when he was out of office. Should have just retired and shut up.

Lincoln - Autocrat and grabbed way too much power, especially with the greenback. He also changed the nature of the federal government by taking autonomy away from the states.

Wilson - The entire progressive agenda was a disaster. Income tax, prohibition and direct election of senators were the beginning of the end for states' rights. His bringing us into WWI was inexcusable and a bold-faced lie.

FDR - He is Wilson just with a better smile. He did even worse in WWII by giving Stalin anything and everything. Essentially made the USSR a dominant power. He also took us off the gold standard by suspending convertibility. The fact that he was popular does not excuse the ridiculous Keynesian policies and the authoritarian rule that he exercised, particularly in foreign policy.

Ford/Carter/Reagan/Bush/Clinton/Bush/Obama - All pretty much the same, continuing the same policies post 1971 and getting us into unnecessary wars while debasing the dollar strategically.
