United States 45th President Donald Trump is considered as a “historic loser” among the loser presidents. Trump, who is the first president with neither prior public service nor military experience, has become a historic loser. As #ByeByeTrump and #YOUREFIRED are trending online, we take a look at what makes Donald Trump a “Historic Loser” among the US Presidents. The three major reasons are 1. Impeachment 2. Losing Re-election 3. Losing the popular vote twice.
Impeachment
Donald Trump was “impeached”. Impeachment was initiated against Trump on Dec 18, 2019 when the House of Representatives approved articles of impeachment on charges of abuse of power and obstruction of Congress. However, the Senate acquitted Trump of these charges on Feb 5, 2020.
Losing Re-election
Trump lost re-election. He joined the history club of one-term presidents of the United States. Trump joined nine other presidents who were rejected by the American voters. John Adams (1797-1801), Johan Quincy Adams (1825-1829), Martin Van Buren (1837-1841), Franklin Pierce (1853-1857), Benjamin Harrison (1889-1893), William Howard Taft (1909-1913), Hebert Hoover (1929-1933), Jimmy Carter (1977-1981), George H.W. Bush (1989-1993).
Losing Popular Vote Twice
Donald Trump lost the popular vote. Not just once. He lost the popular vote twice and both by millions. While he had secured 46.09 percent (6,29,84,828) popular votes in 2016 against Hillary Clinton who got 48.18 percent (6,58,53,514) popular votes. Yet Trump had made it to the White House. As of now, Biden secured 50.6 percent popular vote (7,50,10,459) whereas Donald Trump got 47.7 percent vote (7,06,86,229).
