You can be great at what you do without being popular, especially when how popular you are is based on the opinion of an extremely divided population that’s influenced by media that try to make people angry at anything and everything to generate more clicks so they sell more ads.

The primary purpose of this survey was to create a ranking of presidential greatness that
covered all presidents from George Washington to Joe Biden. To do this, we asked respondents to rate each president on a scale of 0-100 for their overall greatness, with 0=failure, 50=average, and 100=great. We then averaged the ratings for each president and ranked them from highest average
to lowest
Lower approval rating than every president going back to Eisenhower at this point in their presidency.

In a democracy the opinion of the people matters.
When making a list based on the accomplishments and not popularity, the opinion of the majority isn’t what matters.

When people in a democracy decide they want a dictatorship their opinions won’t matter a bit.
