I tested below and I see that ordering is properly applied highest to lowest. Can you check if timestamp_column is defined as timestamp not string?

create table test_ts_order
(timestamp_column  timestamp);

insert into test_ts_order 
select getdate()
--wait few seconds
insert into test_ts_order 
select getdate()
--wait few seconds
insert into test_ts_order 
select getdate()
select * from test_ts_order order by timestamp_column desc;
