Trump ahead of Biden and Pope, behind Putin and Xi on ‘most admired’ YouGov list: Barack and Michelle Obama top list of most admired Men and Women

Former President Donald Trump tops President Biden and Pope Francis on a list of the world’s most admired public figures released earlier this week, rising two spots despite a series of legal battles and scrutiny over the Jan. 6 Capitol riot.

The annual YouGov survey released Monday ranked Trump as the 13th-most admired man in the world. Trump was 15th in last year’s poll, which was released weeks before a mob of his supporters breached the Capitol building in an effort to interrupt the congressional count of electoral votes from the 2020 presidential election.

Pope Francis ranks as the 16th-most admired man, while Biden is listed as the 20th.

All three world figures, however, rank well below Chinese President Xi Jingping and Russian President Vladimir Putin — who come in at third and ninth, respectively.

Former President Barack Obama tops the list of the world’s most admired men for the second straight year, while former first lady Michelle Obama makes it a three-peat at the top of the list of the world’s most admired women.

The rankings are based on a survey of more than 42,000 people across 38 countries done this past spring.

Notable names on the men’s list include Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates (second), soccer star Cristiano Ronaldo (fourth), Tesla CEO Elon Musk (sixth), Indian President Narendra Modi (eighth) and Chinese businessman Jack Ma (10th).

Vice President Kamala Harris made her debut on YouGov’s list of most admired women, coming in at 11th — one spot ahead of Hillary Clinton and five spots in front of former first lady Melania Trump.

Actresses Angelina Jolie (second), Scarlett Johannsson (fifth), Emma Watson (sixth) and Priyanka Chopa (10th) were all listed within the top 10. Queen Elizabeth II (third), former German Chancellor Angela Merkel (eighth) and New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern (20th) were the only other female politicians or heads of state to join Harris and Clinton on the list.

If Mohammed Obola and The First Sasquatch are “the most admired people in the world,” then anyone with a brain should be anticipating the Divine Fury of Almighty God to come down hard on this Satanic planet.

Dear God, PLEASE destroy America. It has become WORSE than Sodom and Gomorrah and Capernaum. Most Americans admire the wicked, and hate the righteous with a white-hot passion. BRING AMERICA LOW, Lord. BURN the evil Blue cities, as you burned Sodom.

I’m shocked 😳 at the decline of this country.

I watched Kirk Cameron from about 300 feet away preaching that America was going to continue for another 1,000 years.

All to an audience of well over 1,000 to maybe 1,500-2,000 people.

And they clapped; the overwhelming majority.

I just shook my head.

The lies of the media have taken their toll.

Any poll that has Biden ahead of Tucker Carlson is obviously bogus. There are a bunch of names on both lists that mean nothing to me—I haven’t the slightest idea who they are or why they are famous.

First, at least half the Democrats in the country are going to say they admire Biden, while Tucker’s audience is nowhere near so big. Second, it looks like an international survey and foreigners don’t know who Tucker is.
