Presidents of the United States of America timeline

We're going to create a timeline of the Presidents of the United States of America today. A month ago we watched the inauguration of Donald Trump. I added his name to the list below. The kids were amazed we've only had 45 elected Presidents and that The United States is considered a new country compared to many others.
