Frequent consumers of news may be aware of Gallup's annual poll measuring the "most admired man" in America which is typically announced a few days before New Year's. The poll was done yearly from 1946 through 2020, with 1976 the only year that was skipped. NewsBusters pointed out a year ago that liberal news media lost interest in the annual poll after Donald Trump started edging out Barack Obama for first place, whereas the networks previously enjoyed using the survey to embarrassing Trump as sitting President failing to come in first place.
This year, a Google search conspicuously shows no sign that Gallup conducted such a poll

No, they ended it so Biden wouldn't be voted "Doofus of the Year."

So much like the J.K. Rowling debacle. If the polling company’s choice isn’t going to win, call off the poll.

I imagine they also didn't run their most admired women poll because JK Rowling would have come out on top.

They fear him.
A fear which will grow greater after the midterms as 2024 approaches.

I guess the supposition would be that Gallup would run an honest poll. Not so sure about that, especially if DJT jumped into the lead.

"What, me worry?" Why? The poll has a much meaning as the Pulitzer or
Nobel; nada to nothing. Same holds true for the Emmy, Oscar, and Tony. Hot air for rising egos.

They probably ran the poll but decided not to publish it because President Trump showed stronger than any other man since the first poll in 1946.

These leftist organizations that are in the tank for democrats are so childish. They cannot tolerate the truth. It offends them because they cannot accept the fact that the American people do not want what they are pushing. Truth be told if we could count on the election in 2022 being fair and honest, they would be decimated by the outcome. I have to hold out hope that Republicans will do everything in their power to secure the process, but counting on that clown show is not very reassuring.

It sure seems like it, and they would be pilloried for it by the rabid left if they named Trump. But it remains that Biden undid the all good things Trump did to help people to having the most awful situation we have today which hurts most people, in less than a year. How obvious it is that the dirty dems negated the will of the American people and reversed the actual result of the 2020 election, in order to elect an idiot.

I have never heard of anybody who has actually participated in a Gallup poll. Maybe they just make up the numbers anyway.

Trump didn't care a whit about polls, he just governed the nation for one thousand and ninety-seven days.

Honest polling has gone the way of the Dodo bird.
The Libs have used phony polling for years to push their agenda by claiming: "See!! Everyone loves this idea ---or him/her/it" . Get on board before it's too late. And it worked.
However, with computer robots being programmed to vote a million times it's obvious polls are worthless. And once a few young Republicans also figured out how to load the game ... the game gets called off!

Yep, polls are as worthless as elections in swing states. 81 million voted for dementia while only 133 million were registered to vote on November 3rd. Oh, and President Trump received 73+ million.

The poll should have ended when Obozo placed first as the most admired man. We don't need a useless BS poll on a subject like that. We have too many polls with dubious results.

Orange Man Bad is the only thing the Left has going for them so it would be cruel to take that away from them. Don't worry children, the antics of the Pelosi show on January 6th will give you plenty of that,

Who cares...only the establishment cares...and now that Mr. Magoo is out of the running...they decided to stop the polling...well..President Trump is still the most popular leader and with each agonizing year it becomes obvious that President Trump is the most popular leader America has had since President Reagan...no amount of spinning and narratives by the fake media will change that....

Polls generally are a series of lies to make a point or endorse a canidate so it is a surprise that Gallup simply did not place Trump near the bottom.
