Bill Clinton (2001), 65%.


Despite his prevaricating, his sexual misadventures and his impeachment by Congress, a remarkable 65 percent of Americans approve of the way Clinton has done his job — the best end-of-career rating of any postwar president (one point ahead of Ronald Reagan).


End-of Presidency Job Approval Ratings
Bill Clinton (2001) 65%
Ronald Reagan (1989) 64
Dwight Eisenhower (1961) 59
John F. Kennedy (1963) 63
George Bush (1993) 56
Gerald Ford (1977) 53
Lyndon Johnson (1969) 49
Jimmy Carter (1981) 34
Richard Nixon (1974) 24

On some specifics Clinton's final ratings soar higher still. Sixty-seven percent say he's been a strong leader. Sixty-eight percent approve of his work on foreign affairs; on race relations, 73 percent approve; and on the economy — the mainstay of his overall approval — 76 percent endorse Clinton's performance.

Yet this is also a president with truly dismal personal ratings: Sixty-seven percent of Americans say he's not honest and trustworthy. Seventy-seven percent say he lacks high moral and ethical standards. And just 44 percent view him favorably "as a person."

1. Monica Told Me it was 69%

:wtf: :hi: :rofl:

[Captain Hilts]

10. His job performance rating was actually 69%. I worked for a pollster. It wrote its own punchline.

2. Well he did 'it' better

[depakid]

3. The twerpy college dropout making things up again?

Color me surprised....

[SoCalDem]

4. Not surprised, but that twerp has a tv show, and some people actually

believe that if they "see it on tv" , it's true..

The odd thing is that even his LOWEST rating of 44% is still higher than *² :)

5. Still can't figure out why that guy has a teevee show..

He's a complete idiot, and on top of that he's a fucking weenie.

[Bongo Prophet]

8. He is a "Legacy" recruit. Like Goldberg, or Podhoretz

Does it come from a "good family"?
Then it must have a path to success laid gently before it.
Heckuvajob.

6. Only on Tucker's planet

[HockeyMom]

7. I have lived through half century plus of Presidents

William Jefferson Clinton was the best President in my lifetime. I don't care any more about his PERSONAL life, than my neighbors next door.

9. Really?

Weird that when Bill Clinton was touring ground zero in 2001 the majority of the crowd was expressing that they wish he was still President. Tucker must be hopped up on goof-balls.

[NC_Nurse]

11. Tucker is FOS as usual.

He's such an ass.

[MasonJar]

12. Tucker is the epitome of "loser."

[JitterbugPerfume]

13. I heard that MSNBC

fired his useless smarmy ass

[gratuitous]

14. Project much, Tucker?

And Tucker's "approval" ratings have only gone down since 2001. But it's the standard media meme: They don't like Clinton (never mind why, they can't really articulate it except to echo Dean David Broder in saying that Clinton "trashed" Washington, and Washington belongs to the likes of Broder and Carlson), and so they assume that everyone else doesn't like Clinton, either.

Carlson's attitude is absolutely required if you're going to be on the teevee regularly.
