Who used the Resolute Desk the most?

Which president used that desk in the Oval Office the most?

Answer #1

The desk was given to Rutherford B. Hayes in 1880. All Presidents before him wouldn’t have used it at all. Hayes and the Presidents after him (except for Johnson, Nixon, and Ford who didn’t use it at all) would have most likely used it equally because almost every President has sat at it when they worked in the Oval office since 1880. Other than the three presidents who didn’t use the desk, President George H.W. Bush may have used it the least because he had it moved from the Oval office to the Treaty room. Clinton then moved it back to the Oval office when he served. If you really want to find out, then just look at which President traveled the least and worked in the office the most.
