>he's a Democrat
>better rationalize reason why he was shit

The Alien and Sedition Acts were pretty dumb though.

LEAGUE OF NATIONS

Henry Cabot Lodge was the worst thing to ever happen to America.

The funny thing is, the sides are completely backwards. You'd think /pol/ would love the guy who segregated the army, and modern democrats would want to put some distance between them, but no.

This is the kind of magic thing that happens when nobody is that educated.

>mfw a huge amount of the work of the second progressive movement in the 60s and 70s was undoing the policies enacted by the first progressive movement

>destroyed Austria-Hungary

There's a special place in hell for him

> You'd think /pol/ would love the guy

This is Veeky Forums you fucking idiot.

And if anyone doesn't believe me about scholars rating him highly, here's a Schlesinger 1996 poll for example

"Scholars"

>scholars

>Kennedy
>Lyndon johnson
>High average
>Nixon
>Failure

It's Benjamin not William

>shot

>Kennedy
>Reagan
The meme duo of overrated presidents

>Clinton 4 years into presidency
>2 votes for Failure
some savage scholars

Two worlds:

Welfare state

>expanded the US government beyond the constitutional scope and was only put into check when he tried to put a government monopoly on steel
>drove America into a war needlessly and caught serious flak over it after the war had finished
>was the laughingstock of Versailles
I honestly can't think of anything positive that Wilson did outside of make sure Mexico didn't fall for the commie bait.
