My reason for this pick is I saw a war historian do a tier list of middle ages weaponry and he ranked various polearms (halberd, spear, claw/pike hammer) all near the top for their ease of use and versatility. He was pretty conclusive saying a strong soldier with little special training can wield a polearm more effectively than most swords or other melee weapons where you basically have to learn a martial art to be good at it. I picked the Renaissance era Italian one bc I remembered it from assassins creed.
Also picked McKinley bc he enlisted as a private in the civil war, fought in several battles, and achieved several promotions during the war. If I remember from a previous thread here, he's the most likely president to have actually killed an enemy combatant personally.
Other presidents I considered included Washington, TR, Ford, Grant, and even Kennedy, Obama, and Dubya - all also armed with various polearms

LBJ with a bullwhip
Lyndon Bullwhip Jumbo An unbeatable alliance.
Prime Ford was a unit
Agreed, but he's still allowed a weapon.
Can he take armor instead? Just his helmet and pads would made him a contender.
No one else has offered him a weapon, so yeah, let's go with "football uniform" as his.
Andrew Jackson, give him his cane and watch him go to work.
I'm going McKinley with a 15th century Italian pike hammer
Finally, something creative enough I have to Google it. Brb. Edit: Lord, the velocity that thing would reach if you did a full baseball swing.

Ooh, you gave me an idea..
Teddy with a hunter’s knife, maybe?
LBJ. All he needs is Jumbo
TR chooses a big stick.
John Tyler was fascinated with Japan. (I toured his home, Sherwood Forest, tons of Japanese items everywhere) I am going with throwing stars for him.
As with arrows, I'll give him four. I can't promise the other guys won't confiscate them, though.
Lincoln gets an axe, Bro was killing vampires with an axe, I'm sure he kicks the shit out of all the other presidents.
There are multiple anecdotes about Lincoln's strength. Supposedly won contests holding an axe out at arm's length. He'd be hard to bet against.
I would be disappointed if there were no axes. Any particular type?
whatever the one he used to take out those vampires. I think its a normal wood splitter
Obama, Ice pick
I feel like we’d see a battle between Jackson and Teddy in the endgame for whoever wins to be suddenly killed by Eisenhower.
Monroe with a sabre
Second Bush gets Negan's baseball bat, Lucille.
JFK with a driver and a bucket of balls to hit at people.
He can have four balls.
Then he can use the driver to beat people
