Summary:
There are myriad lists of best and worst presidents in U.S. history compiled by historians. Typically, presidents who helped expand the power of the federal government, led America into a major war, or both, are found at the top, while those whose governance benefited their constituents the most are found at the bottom. Warren G. Harding is in the latter category. He’s often named one of the worst presidents in U.S. history. Ryan S. Walters says that’s just plain wrong and joins Tom to discuss his new book, https://amzn.to/34cnSeT (The Jazz Age President: Defending Warren G. Harding).
