WASHINGTON, D.C. — Controversy swirled online on Friday, as President Donald Trump posted a graphic to social media ranking American leaders, with Harrison Ford listed prominently as the "2nd Greatest" president in history.

Debate quickly arose on social media platforms, with some praising Trump's rankings, while others expressed outrage that the president would count the well-known actor among the nation's greatest leaders.

"He was tremendous, almost as tremendous as I am," Trump told reporters in the Oval Office when asked about the controversial image. "Harrison Ford. He was a great president. He fought terrorists onboard Air Force One, if you can imagine such a thing. Very heroic. Fought them all by himself. ‘Get off my plane,' he said. What a line that was. He was also the only president to be Han Solo and Indiana Jones. He's a Democrat, from what I understand, which is unfortunate. But a great president. The second-greatest, of course."

When pressed to defend his ranking, Trump was adamant. "He was almost the greatest," the president explained. "He arguably was the greatest until I was elected. I've been elected three times now, by a lot. I'm thinking about running again. They tell me the Constitution won't let me, but we'll see. It really would be something. A fourth victory. Harrison Ford was only president once. That's why he's Number 2."

Administration officials disclosed that Trump had revised his rankings overnight after screening Air Force One at the White House late Thursday night.

At publishing time, White House sources confirmed that Trump could make further revisions to his list after seeing Bill Pullman save the world from an alien invasion in Independence Day.
