President Trump has ended former President Obama's 12-year run as the most admired man in America, edging out his predecessor in the annual Gallup survey released Tuesday.
Eighteen percent of the survey's respondents named Trump as their most admired man, compared to 15 percent who named Obama and 6 percent who named President-elect Joe Biden. Three percent named National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Director Anthony Fauci, while 2 percent chose Pope Francis.
Rounding out the top 10 were Tesla CEO Elon Musk, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), Microsoft founder Bill Gates, Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James and the Dalai Lama, all of whom received 1 percent.

LoL.
Apparently more Trumpkins vote in internet polls than elections. Too bad we don't award the Presidency based on that. :rofl
Besides the poll is obvious crap. Zack is nowhere on that list.

Donald Trump ranked worst president in US history by nearly 200 political scientists
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/trump-worst-president-presidential-greatness-survey-president-s-day-obama-george-washington-a8218721.html
Nearly 200 of America's top political scientists have voted Donald Trump the worst president in US history.
According to the 2018 Presidents & Executive Politics Presidential Greatness Survey, Mr Trump ranks even lower than disgraced President Richard Nixon – even among conservatives. Abraham Lincoln, unsurprisingly, takes the top prize. Mr Nixon sits at 33.
The study, conducted every four years, surveys social science researchers from the American Political Science Association’s section on presidents and executive politics. It asks the experts to rank each president’s greatness on a scale of 0 to 100, with 100 being great, 50 being average, and 0 being a total failure.
Mr Trump averaged a score of 12.34, bumping James Buchanan – the president who saw the US descend into the Civil War – out of the bottom spot. The result comes just months after Trump finished his first year in office as the most unpopular president in modern history.
I doubt his ranking has improved.

Trump is certainly a popular figure however I think it important that we add perspective to the results. According to Wikipedia this poll has been conducted every year since 1948 with the exception of 1967. The sitting president has won the poll in 60 of the 73 polls. In fact the only president to not be awarded top spot was Gerald Ford, every other president won several times so Donald Trump kinda bucked the trend by not being voted top until the end of his tenancy.
I take these sorts of polls with a pinch of salt though because the most admired woman has been awarded to Hillary Clinton 22 times with 2nd place going to Elanor Roosevelt on 13 and then everyone else in single figures.
So let's congratulate Trump on his win and Clinton on her record. :)

Ahhhh media bias. I know we have debated it on this forum and no matter how much we dislike it it will always be present which is why it is important to try to get information from a variety of sources.
A media outlet over here which is aligned to CNN has reported the same Gallup poll but their headline is different:
Melania loses award to Michelle Obama Third year in a row
The headline is factual however shows just how bias is introduced to skew the story.

In France they always blamed the President for everything. If beet prices fell the farmers would dump truckloads of beets at the palace. In America, we blame the man in charge for every weather change. Trump will continue to get bad press. Biden will get good press and will be hated even more. It's just the way it works.

You appear to be picking a fight. Lol. Go back, read my posts in this thread again but with an open mind.
The media bias in this case is that the language used seeks to put Melania Trump down rather simply report the fact that Michelle Obama was voted most popular woman and Melania was voted 2nd most popular.
The bias is not about inaccurate facts it is the sentiment with which it is reported.

You must have been living in a hole.

The majority of the liberal media are on a death spiral, more accurate and unbiased news can be obtained by independant internet news outlets.
The Mainstream multimillion dollars media oultlets are finished.
The fact that rioters were called protesters and drug dealing crimminals were called heros is evidence to their depravity.
The elephant in the room is that there is no coverage Chinese responsibilty for Covid pandemic on your so called liberal mainstream media, they need Chinese revenue.
The chinese communists having given a 4 year sentence to a journalist for highlighting Wuhan virus outbreak....4 years.
Your liberal media is unwilling to highlight the concentration camps for Chinese minorities in central China....thats your liberal media for you.

The point here that the children don't want to talk about is, how in the heck would Biden receive 80M votes, far more than Obama ever got, with 1/2 the overall counties, only 16% of counties, and yet score this low on the scale, while Trump completely blew them away. Trump got 74m votes. The real most votes in history and his #1 rating shows that. Biden did not even come close to beating Obama here, yet somehow got 12M more votes than Obama.
Just another rating scale that proves Joe Biden is not very admired relatively speaking, so how in the world could he beat Trump in an election with the most votes in history if he isn't admired even close to as much?
It doesn't make sense.
-
They did not expect Trump to get so many votes..it screwed up their initial cheating plans
By adding the required votes to put sleepy creepy corrupt joe ahead makes all the numbers seem suspect
Pretty sure this turd did not get more votes than our "historic" 1st black potus..
Just that alone should spur everyone to want a full audit on the machines
Instead they run into road block after road block giving time to alter such data in numerous ways.

Which is exactly the problem with you jumping into the fray.
You can say what you want, and then threaten others because there is a power differential.
That's why they don't allow commanding officers to have affairs with subordinates. Even when consensual, the power differential makes it a fundamentally unethical situation.

Dale, just declare the AH forum a safe place for right wing rhetoric (subtle or not), a ban on sight place for disagreement with it (perceived or not) and be done with it.

Of course they are not. Don't be ridiculous.
You physically have access to the forum controls to mute every one of us on a whim if we say something you don't like or don't politically agree with.
We do not have that same power over you.
That is a fundamental power differential that makes it unethical for you to jump into heated discussions with your own opinion when you can say what you want, and everyone else has to tip toe around a forum ban.
The very fact that I kid you about posting a video link to a 4 hour Trump political rally, and your first reaction is to threaten me, is a perfect example of the likelihood of authority being abused in a heated discussion.
Q.E.D.
Oh, and we both know if Arlo had posted a link to a 4 hour Biden political rally and said he was only doing it because he was really interested in the suit Biden was wearing, you would have rolled you eyes and closed the thread in a heartbeat. We both know that to be true.
So instead of making threats or excuses, just admit, "yeah, that was a bonehead mistake. I should have just found a picture of it."
Or you can threaten to mute anyone pointing out the obvious.

Here's a thought, if you couldn't find a pic without posting a link to a 4 hour long Trump political rally video weeks before a contentious election, maybe you just should have skipped that post? Was it really important enough to post a link to a 4 hour long Trump political rally video weeks before the election?
And you still haven't addressed the issue that if Arlo and done the same thing that you wouldn't have shut down the thread even if he claimed it was not to post a political rally, but only because he was interested in Biden's suit.
No one here really believes that you would have bought that excuse and not deleted the link.

Indeed he has. Made accusations that aren’t true about my posting in addition. In his mind he seems to think those of us that support looking into corruption (be it both sides) is all about Trump and not about fair elections. He thinks it has given him license to attack, insult and belittle anyone with a different view point. Now attacking the creator and owner of this great game. Wow :rolleyes:

Blah blah blah blah blah. Don't whine to me about name calling. "Leftist", "marxist", "socialists", "communist clowns" you and your Trumper ilk love throwing around insult. Now you are getting them shoved back down your rotting throat and so you whine.
And don't make me laugh. The only election you would called fair is one where Trump won. You don't fool anyone.
You are a Trump supporter so obviously you have no concern about corruption.

Horse sht.
You call someone "leftist", "communist", "socialist" who is not, just because they won't support Trump, then you are doing so to demean and marginalize people you disagree with. Whether you are honest enough to admit it or not.
You sure clutched your pearls when I called them Nazi. OK for one side of the fence but not the other?
And don't tell me the whole Trump movement wasn't built on name calling and demeaning slurs. "Lying Ted", "Little Marco", Crazy Nancy", "Sleepy Joe", "crooked Hillary", cucks, RINO, snowflake.....
But you are all a bunch of pearl clutching whiners when it gets turned against you.

If there was even the slightest evidence of fraud it would have come up in the 60 federal court cases filed.
If you got evidence, go prove it in federal court, or go pound sand. :D
You assume so much about anyone that preferred Trump over other choices it’s actually beyond any understanding anymore. You have a hate filled heart, don’t know how you’re going to get over that but it would be wise...people in your life I’m sure voted for Trump so I guess you’ll have to figure that out.
We all know many that voted for the opposing candidate than we did. Half of my family probably voted for Biden and yet I enjoyed Christmas with them just fine.
If you’re correct then Trump will be gone in less than a month from now, maybe stop living in the past would help since you’re so confident Biden is going to lead the nation abundantly better.

You have a hate filled heart,
You are correct. I have a burning, violent hate in my heart for those trying to overthrow our country and install a Putin-like authoritarian regime.
We'll be lucky if this doesn't turn into a shooting war. Proud Boys are planning to mass on the streets of DC to intimidate law makers on the 6th. And I wouldn't be surprised if they smuggle in arms.
I would have, liked it or not, accepted the election either way. I waited patiently while they took for ever to count votes. I even held off judgement while they took their case to court. If there was truly a hack and manipulation of our vote tabulation system by China, of course that can't stand.
But after 60 court case where they have provided no evidence of systemic fraud or even claimed it under oath, it's obvious to all honest Americans that there was none. At this point it is just flat out seditious treasonous Trumpers trying to destroy our country and overthrow the government. People used to get hung for Treason.
You even have dangerous Trumpers here on this board threatening violent overthrow of the government. No pearl clutching there, only silence. "Qui tacet consentire videtur."
Oh, and I'm just as likily to want to see ANTIFA shot down in the streets as Proud Boys. So go fk yourself and your "Whadaboutism".

You have a problem with fake russian influence but are fine with a potus who is in bed with china and are willing to destroy the country to get your corrupt leader in

Horse sht.
You call someone "leftist", "communist", "socialist" who is not, just because they won't support Trump, then you are doing so to demean and marginalize people you disagree with. Whether you are honest enough to admit it or not.
You sure clutched your pearls when I called them Nazi. OK for one side of the fence but not the other?
And don't tell me the whole Trump movement wasn't built on name calling and demeaning slurs. "Lying Ted", "Little Marco", Crazy Nancy", "Sleepy Joe", "crooked Hillary", cucks, RINO, snowflake.....
But you are all a bunch of pearl clutching whiners when it gets turned against you.
Fire with fire.
Please show me where I called anyone a derogatory term let alone labeling them something?

That is the accepted generic "you" variant of "one" or "someone".
As in "When someone calls someone a 'leftist'..." which sounds redundant or "When one calls someone a 'leftist'..." which sounds too...British.
As in "When you lie with dogs, you wake with fleas." Isn't targeted at a specific individual. It's generic.

I've listed for days the usual suspect guilty of calling everyone "marxists", "socialists", "leftists" and "communist clowns".
Those have been Eagler, Toad, RottingBaron, and DemonSlayer. Check it. I've been consistent.
If I had wanted to add your name to that list, I would have.
If I wanted to call you a fknig Nazi, then I just would. I wouldn't hesitate. And you know that.

If you look at msg5329013 , I was referring to ROTTINGBARON calling people "leftists".
It was your statement that callings someone a "communist" wasn't name calling, and that I call horse sht. You call me a communist to my face and you better be armed.
So to ensure proper target identification before pulling the trigger we should include the proper target designators.
HITECH! You are a pearl clutching weenie, who I suspect it already drunk before 6PM!
TOAD, EAGLER, ROTTINGBARON, DEMONSLAYER! You are bootlicking, authoritarian, neo-Nazi, seditious, traitors!
ZACK! Well....you and I are still kinda awesome and awesomer. Like Dumb and Dumber, but more awesome.

I've been called many things too, socialist, globalist, communist, un-American, unpatriotic.
the one that made me laugh the most is technocrat, but because I was called that but because of the person who didn't had no idea what it means.
not even the throw around word treason which is used by people who don't know what treason is made me laugh that much.

President Trump has ended former President Obama's 12-year run as the most admired man in America, edging out his predecessor in the annual Gallup survey released Tuesday.
Eighteen percent of the survey's respondents named Trump as their most admired man, compared to 15 percent who named Obama and 6 percent who named President-elect Joe Biden. Three percent named National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Director Anthony Fauci, while 2 percent chose Pope Francis.
Rounding out the top 10 were Tesla CEO Elon Musk, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), Microsoft founder Bill Gates, Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James and the Dalai Lama, all of whom received 1 percent.
