I feel like Trump and Biden should both be disqualified from this if for no other reason than they are too recent to judge fairly compared to the others.
 
Teddy Roosevelt
  • War hero
  • Hunter, outdoorsman, conservationist
  • Founded the National Park system
  • Made America a global player
  • Busted monopolies
And best of all...

Washington. If it's limited to within "recent" history, like somebody can actually still be alive who experienced their presidency, I guess Hoover. He was pretty based, but I don't know if he was a very effective president.
 
Theodore Roosevelt
Progressive Reforms: Roosevelt was a leading figure in the Progressive Era, implementing numerous reforms aimed at curbing corporate power and improving social justice. His "Square Deal" domestic policies focused on three main principles: conservation of natural resources, control of corporations, and consumer protection.
Trust-Busting: Roosevelt earned the nickname "Trust Buster" for his efforts to break up monopolies and restore competition in the American economy. He used the Sherman Antitrust Act to dismantle several large corporate monopolies, including the Northern Securities Company.
Conservation Efforts: He was a pioneer in the conservation movement, establishing the United States Forest Service and signing into law the creation of five national parks, 18 national monuments, and 150 national forests. His actions helped preserve vast amounts of wilderness for future generations.
Panama Canal: Roosevelt played a crucial role in the construction of the Panama Canal, which significantly boosted global trade and military mobility. His actions in securing the canal zone were controversial but ultimately led to a major engineering achievement.
Nobel Peace Prize: Roosevelt was the first American to win the Nobel Peace Prize, awarded in 1906 for his role in mediating the Russo-Japanese War. His diplomacy showcased his commitment to international peace and stability.
 
Roosevelt for conserving America's beauty. Kennedy for at least trying to reign in the glownigger mafia. Carter has done a lot of good after his presidency, probably because he feels guilty for not being able to do anything during his presidency without ending up like Kennedy.

I remember reading that Jackson fought tooth and nail against the establishment of the central bank/federal reserve, not sure how true that is but based if real.

Carter seems like a pretty classic example of someone who got promoted above their level of competency. I've heard that he was a pretty good governor, but as president he was well meaning but completely out of his depth.
Biden because he's destroying the US.

I mean, I guess he counts as a US president
WE SHOULD HAVE CLAPPED!
 
Ironically enough. Dan Sobel was the best modern US president. He was elected in 2040 and didn't start any new wars in different countries, he only executed his haters.

To be entirely fair to Carter he was hit by a lot of shit more or less out of his control (Oil Crisis, Iran Crisis, Afghanistan, etc.).
