Obama, Trump Tie as Most Admired Man in 2019
Gallup ^ | 12/30/2019 | JEFFREY M. JONES

Posted on 12/30/2019 3:22:01 PM PST by MaxistheBest

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Barack Obama and Donald Trump are tied this year as the most admired man. It is Obama's 12th time in the top spot versus the first for Trump. Michelle Obama is the most admired woman for the second year in a row.

Each year since 1948, Gallup has asked Americans to name, in an open-ended fashion, which man and woman living anywhere in the world they admire most. This year's results are based on a Dec. 2-15 poll. Americans' choice for most admired man this year is sharply divided along party lines: 41% of Democrats name Obama, while 45% of Republicans choose Trump.

Relatively few Democrats choose Trump and relatively few Republicans pick Obama, while independents' choices are divided about equally between the two men. After Obama and Trump, no other man was mentioned by more than 2% of respondents.

The remainder of the top 10 for men this year includes former President Jimmy Carter, businessman Elon Musk, philanthropist and Microsoft founder Bill Gates, Pope Francis, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, California Rep. Adam Schiff, the Dalai Lama, and investor Warren Buffett.

Pope Francis, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, California Rep. Adam Schiff are on the list.

And we share a country with the people who put these losers on the list.

They could at least compare a real man to a lying Muzzie half breed, non US citizen, con man with a Wookie beard wife.

Oh, I guess they did......

In his 2008 victory speech, he said “this is the moment the rise of the oceans began to slow!”

So we have nothing to worry about.

Since I didn’t vote, I cast my vote for President Trump. That means President Trump is now the most admired man in 2019. End of tie. 8>)

Obama is SCUM, a FRAUD with a FAKE pedigree and COUNTLESS FAILURES AND CRIMES as POTUS..

IF ONLY his complicit NEWS MEDIA exposed all of this to the people INSTEAD OF COVERING-UP FOR HIM FOR 8 LONG YEARS, Obama would be PELTED WITH ROCKS, HECKLED AND SHOUTED OUT OF THE COUNTRY!!

Poll taken at 3:00PM in one of the larger cities. Should have most of the people up at that time.

Ten years from now, I’ll be surprised if Obama is anywhere in sight on that poll.

In the meantime, like Reagan, pro-America Trump will go down as one of the best Presidents ever.
