President Trump Is the Second-Most Admired Man in America | Time

Donald Trump may be the current president, but in terms of who Americans most admire, his predecessor and the person he beat in the 2016 election top the list.

Barack Obama edged his successor as the most admired man for 2017, a Gallup poll finds, marking the first time since 2008 when a sitting president didn’t win the annual accolade. Hillary Clinton, meanwhile, is the woman Americans most admire for the 16th year in a row.

It was a close race. Seventeen percent of those surveyed named Obama as the man they most admire, to 14 percent for Trump. To no surprise, there was a wide partisan split, with 35 percent of Republicans saying Trump was most admired man of the year, and 39 percent of Democrats picking Obama.
=================================================================================
Americans most admire the last president. He helped our economy by reversing the downward economic trend & helping to create an economy that put over 15 million people back to work (see graphic attached).

How much money you were paid by the liberal/Demos to post this ?
 
Who would admire Trump, an habitual sexual predator who supported Roy Moore .... another sexual predator?
 
Trumplings don't like hearing their Orange Jesus isn't as popular as they believe him to be.
 
I think they were referring to "his predecessor" (Obama) AND the person he beat in 2016 (Hillary Clinton).

Hillary was the most admired woman, which tells you how flawed the sample was.
 
So Trump was third, bested By Obama, then Hillary. That's still a lot better than reason would suggest.
 
If only Trump had normal sized hands.

People who do not care that much about morality as long as a person has an R behind their name.
 
ISIS has lost 98 percent of the territory it held. Most of that happened this year.

Isn't it great to have a president now that doesn't secretly sympathize with ISIS?

We've never had a POTUS who sympathized with ISIS, openly, secretly or otherwise. Nor did the territory loss mostly happen this year.

Pretty much why you're not taken seriously here in a nutshell.

Now why would you say that? Clinton pulled almost 3 million more votes than Trump. Explain the flaw, please.

You clearly understand nothing about the fight against ISIS or U.S. involvement under Obama and Trump.
 
Over sampling of Leftists.

Just like the polls that said Hillary would win...

Of course, it's another conspiracy against 45, poor guy. If you folks are gonna play victim for the next 3 years this is gonna be boring.

I don't think a cheap shot question like yours deserves a response.

They don't care about that. ISIS is their BFF. Just like Russia use to be when it was full on Commie.

We actually have someone in office who isn't an enemy sympathizer.

I know. I also know we didn't have one in the office preceding him.

Don't play dumb in public, it's unbecoming.

Yes, I agree. If Trump was #2 it is certainly flawed.

I'm taken seriously in the real world.

What you people think here is entirely irrelevant anywhere where serious people live.
 
"Voting for" is not the same as admiring. People voted for her for many reasons, very few related to anything admirable she's done.

In any case, it's not a serious poll, and the results bear that out.

What an interesting conceit. Your fantasies simply aren't reality.

Lulz. Assumes facts not in evidence. There is no rational reason to believe that you know anything about 'serious people'.
