#19: George H.W. Bush (1989-1993)
During his term, George H.W. Bush oversaw the culmination of the Cold War and orchestrated a coalition to free Kuwait from Saddam Hussein’s grasp. Despite these achievements, a struggling economy led to his defeat in the subsequent election.
George H.W. Bush navigated significant international events, including the collapse of the Soviet Union and the end of the Cold War. Domestically, he signed the Americans with Disabilities Act and pursued fiscal policies to reduce the federal deficit.
