Do you think Gerald Ford was the best Republican president in modern history? I do he actually did Nothing and that helped Americans?

I might be weird, but I think he was a pretty good president - with the exception of not allowing Nixon to face a criminal trial.

He was not as dumb as some people think, and since I am a moderate, I liked his middle-of-the-road politics.

All other modern day Republican presidents have hurt the Middle Class and mostly made bad calls by starting wars etc

i think he was the best republican president in rnodern history too

The late modern history period began approximately in the mid-18th century; notable historical milestones included the American Revolution, the French Revolution, the Industrial Revolution, the Great Divergence, and the Russian Revolution. Thus, all US presidents are part of modern history.
The word "best" is subjective especially by the way you consider Ford the best because he did nothing to help Americans.
With "doing nothing to help Americans" as your parameter, I pick Garfield. He was assassinated after only about 7 months. Other contenders are Coolidge (silent Cal) and Buchanan.
As others have noted, when Ford failed to hold Nixon accountable, I think that severely hurt Americans. The leniency emboldens politicians to corruption/dishonesty.
However, Ford was president for only 2 1/4 yrs. He didn't have much time to get anything done either. Exclude the Nixon incident and Ford moves up to first or second in my opinion.

Posterity will be very unkind to Ford. He had the opportunity to leave Nixon to face criminal prosecution. That, I think, would have been better for the U.S. & to send a message to not merely politicians, but to dishonest people everywhere. Seeing him have to answer for his wrongs would have restored faith in the rule of law. In the same light, I think it was a tragedy that no one suffered severe consequences for the financial chicanery that caused the 2008 recession. Humans died or were ruined by it. All this does is prove what Balzac wrote - "Laws are spider's webs through which the big flies pass & the little ones get caught."

i would recommend putting your own answer in the additional detail. otherwise it looks like you're simply trying to preach. although everyone does that anyway.

um, no, eisenhower or first term nixon

How in the world did he HELP Americans, with his WIN buttons ?

Given that line of thinking he may be the best president in modern times, it's the ones who do a lot who are the problem, like the imbecile who signed into law a tax on poor people for being too poor to afford health insurance.
