  7. The Tragedy of Presidential Assassinations in the United States Presidential Assassinations and Comparative Mortality Risks Overview of Presidential Assassinations The United States has endured a grim history with four of its presidents falling victim to assassination. These tragic events have claimed the lives of Abraham Lincoln, James A. Garfield, William McKinley, and John F. Kennedy, each marked by acts of violence that shocked the nation. The presidency, an office that symbolizes the highest level of national leadership, has been marred by these unspeakable acts. Details of Presidential Assassinations Abraham Lincoln's assassination in 1865 by John Wilkes Booth, James A. Garfield's death in 1881 at the hands of Charles J. Guiteau, William McKinley's shooting in 1901 by Leon Czolgosz, and John F. Kennedy's murder in 1963 by Lee Harvey Oswald are not only etched in the annals of American history but also serve as a stark reminder of the vulnerability of the presidency.

  8. Depiction of John Wilkes Booth (far left) preparing to shoot Abraham Lincoln; Mary Todd Lincoln, Clara Harris, and Henry Rathbone are with the president. The assassination of Abraham Lincoln took place on Good Friday, April 14, 1865, as the Civil War was drawing to a close. He died the following morning at the age of 56.

  9. Risk of Being President The office of the President of the United States is one that comes with unprecedented protection due to the historical risk associated with the role. From the early days of the republic, the lack of security measures led to attempts on the life of President Andrew Jackson, setting a precedent for the need for heightened protection for the president and their family. Comparative Mortality Rates In contrast, the mortality rate in Sweden due to murder is significantly lower, with an average of one death per 100,000 citizens per year. This statistic underscores the stark difference in the level of danger faced by an individual in Sweden compared to the historical risk of becoming President of the United States. 150 Estimated times more dangerous it is to be President of the USA historically compared to the mortality rate in Sweden 1 Mortality rate in Sweden per 100,000 citizens per year due to murder

  10. James A. Garfield The assassination of James A. Garfield happened in Washington, D.C., on July 2, 1881. Garfield was shot by Charles J. Guiteau at 9:30 a.m., less than four months into his term as the nation's 20th president. He died 11 weeks later on September 19, 1881, at the age of 49. Vice President Chester A. Arthur succeeded him as president. Garfield was scheduled to leave Washington on July 2, 1881, for his summer vacation. On that day, Guiteau lay in wait for the president at the Baltimore and Potomac Railroad station, on the southwest corner of present-day Sixth Street and Constitution Avenue NW, Washington, D.C.

  11. William McKinley William McKinley was assassinated on September 6, 1901, inside the Temple of Music on the grounds of the Pan-American Exposition in Buffalo, New York. McKinley was shaking hands with the public when Leon Czolgosz, a Polish-American anarchist, shot him. The 58-year-old president died eight days later on September 14 from gangrene caused by the bullet wounds Leon Czolgosz A drawing depicting Leon Czolgosz shooting William McKinley with a concealed revolver

  12. John F. Kennedy The most recent U.S. president to die in office is John F. Kennedy, who was assassinated on November 22, 1963, in Dallas, Texas. He was fatally shot by Lee Harvey Oswald, who fired three shots from a sixth floor window of the Texas School Book Depository at 12:30 p.m. as the presidential motorcade passed through Dealey Plaza. Riding in the vehicle with the president were First Lady Jackie Kennedy, Texas governor John Connally, and Connally's wife Nellie; Governor Connally was also seriously wounded in the attack. The motorcade rushed to Parkland Memorial Hospital, where Kennedy was pronounced dead about 30 minutes later, at the age of 46.

  16. Fact false or misleading claims (Donald Trump) Fact-checkers from The Washington Post, the Toronto Star, and CNN compiled data on "false or misleading claims" (orange background), and "false claims" (violet foreground), respectively.

  17. Trump has ably protected himself—and cemented his status as the most corrupt president in the nation’s history. (Matt Ford is a staff writer at The New Republic.) The 1948 Schlesinger poll ranked Warren G. Harding, Ulysses S. Grant, Franklin Pierce, James Buchanan and Zachary Taylor as the five worst presidents in American history. In the 1982 Siena poll, the list was the same, save for Andrew Johnson taking Taylor's spot in the bottom five. Future iterations of the poll saw little turnover among the worst of the bunch, with Johnson, Buchanan, Harding and Pierce perennial presences. (US News) Most Corrupt Administrations in U.S. History Ulysses S. Grant (1869-1877) Warren Harding (1921-1923) Richard M. Nixon (1969-1974) George W. Bush (2001-2009) Ronald L. Feinman is the author of “Assassinations, Threats, and the American Presidency: From Andrew Jackson to Barack Obama” (Rowman Littlefield Publishers, August 2015). A paperback edition is now available. After carefully reviewing this history, I believe Trump’s presidency is the most corrupt in American history. list: Democrat Andrew Jackson and Republicans Ulysses S. Grant, Warren G. Harding, Richard Nixon, Ronald Reagan, George W. Bush, and Donald Trump.

  18. Andrew Jackson Andrew Jackson infamously introduced the concept of the “spoils system” to American government. Jackson believed the mantra “to the victor belongs the spoils” and nearly 40 percent of all government employees were replaced by party loyalists. Many of these new appointees had minimal or nonexistent credentials for their jobs. Martin Van Buren, a “Kitchen Cabinet” advisor who served as Secretary of State and Vice President under Jackson, created the Albany Regency political machine in New York and pushed Jackson to give jobs to political allies. Newspaper editors who favored Jackson were granted special favors and malfeasance of political appointees in handling government funds was common. Jackson ushered in a fifty year period of widespread cynicism about the commitment of government workers to conduct the public business in an ethical manner. The worst excesses of the Jacksonian spoils system occurred during Ulysses S. Grant’s Scandals emerged in the Navy, Justice, War, Treasury, Interior, and Post Office Departments, as well as the New York Customs House. Grant was very naïve about people’s motivations, and allowed himself to be manipulated by military associates and people who flattered him in order to gain access to lucrative financial deals at a time of great transformation and development of the industrial economy. Grant was never proven to be directly involved with the scandals, but his association with some people of questionable character, and his acceptance of personal gifts, undermined his reputation and presidential legacy. Bush’s rapid drop Bush’s rapid drop in public opinion ratings and Bush was the most unpopular President since Richard Nixon when he left office. Bush hurt his party and undermined any possibility of 2008 Republican Presidential candidate Senator John McCain winning the election. Ulysses S. Grant’s presidency.

  30. List of United States presidential assassination attempts and plots Assassination attempts and plots on the President of the United States have been numerous, ranging from the early 19th century to the 2020s. On January 30, 1835, Andrew Jackson Jackson was the first president to experience an assassination attempt when Richard Lawrence twice tried to shoot him in the East Portico of the Capitol after Jackson left a funeral held in the House of Representatives Chamber.

  32. Ronald Reagan March 1981: On March 30, 1981, Reagan was shot by John Hinckley Jr. outside the Washington Hilton. Also struck were: James Brady, Thomas Delahanty, and Tim McCarthy. Although "right on the margin of death" upon arrival at George Washington University Hospital, Reagan underwent surgery and recovered quickly from a broken rib, a punctured lung, and internal bleeding. Professor J. David Woodard says that the assassination attempt "created a bond between him and the American people that was never really broken". Later, Reagan came to believe that God had spared his life "for a chosen mission". Later, Reagan came to believe that God had spared his life "for a chosen mission".

This photo shows the former president speaking from an automobile on the south side. He gave a number of talks, including one at the Deutscher Club (now the Wisconsin Club), before going to the Gilpatrick to rest before his major address at the Auditorium, which he made despite his wounds. Milwaukee Journal Sentinel Files. On October 14, 1912, former saloonkeeper John Schrank (1876–1943) attempted to assassinate former U.S. President Theodore Roosevelt while he was campaigning for the presidency in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Schrank's bullet lodged in Roosevelt's chest after penetrating Roosevelt's steel eyeglass case and passing through a 50 page thick (single-folded) copy of his speech titled "Progressive Cause Greater Than Any Individual", which he was carrying in his jacket pocket. Schrank was immediately disarmed and captured; he might have been lynched had Roosevelt not shouted for Schrank to remain unharmed. Roosevelt assured the crowd he was all right, then ordered police to take charge of Schrank and to make sure no violence was done to him. Afterwards, probes and an x-ray showed that the bullet had lodged in Roosevelt's chest muscle, but did not penetrate the pleura. Theodore Roosevelt 1912 October 14
