Step right up, step right up, for this presidential trivia quiz! Most of what you’re about to hear isn’t fake news. In fact, the majority of these answer-options are true and only one “answer” per question is false. It’s called Two Truths and A Lie and we’re about to play it… with American presideShow More

Here’s the catch: everyone on the planet is a secret weirdo, and that includes our current and all former presidents. All their weird habits, hobbies, and quirks are up for grabs in this ultimate presidential trivia quiz. You could have majored in American History in college and still totally flunk this quiz. How? There’s absolutely no way anyone could commit to memory every single detail about 45 presidents. Well, the good news here is that there’s only twelve questions, but we’re going to make you muscle your way through it.

No breaking out textbooks or Googling! That’s cheating! Now, put your hand on your smartphone and swear an oath to tell the whole truth (as far as you know) and nothing but the truth (to the best of your ability to discern the truth) so help you.
