19. TBF, you just left out the whole Progressive Teddy Roosevelt Era. Deffo NOT a big business

whore time, it was the rise of the trust busters .

After that, yes, for sure, starting with Taft, Harding, Coolidge and Hoover.

The only 3 truly decent (2 being great) Repub POTUS's in history were Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt, and Eisenhower, IMHO.

Around 20 years out of the last 160. Not a good record.
