We’re some sick mofos that Trump’s even in the top 500.
john, i totally agree with your sentiment, but you are way off on the number of zeroes. more like 500 cubed.
Trumpster admired… not by anyone I know, now laughed at would be more like it… he is nothing but and old fashioned flim flam man…
Edit: Trumpster reminds me of the George C Scott character from the movie Flim Flam Man (1967), where he proceeds to take every Southern hick he meets for all they are worth…

man-people are f-ed up!
Well nearly 5% of Americans believe that lizard people run the country and a full 5% think that Paul McCartney died in 1966.
So I don’t think this poll is particularly alarming.

His grandfather is a pretty interesting fellow though, he built the empire, then to daddy then to Donald.

Disgusting headline to this story. A real dis-service to journalism.
Shame on you MacNeal, and TPM.

My source was Wiki, of course, but I also explored further and found this. Trump’s sister, Maryanne Trump Barry, is a Federal judge appointed by Reagan and reappointed by Clinton to whom Trump goes for occasional counsel. She shuns the spotlight (good, because one Trump is enough), but she’s on his side whatever he does.

True. But I have to admit, the headline as is made for pretty good clickbait.

TPM, your commenting system seems to be broken today. The comments work for some articles but not others.
Wassup?

I have to believe that some people were having fun with their pollsters. It’s either that or take to drink.
Terrible, terrible headline and the story is crap because it buries the lede which on NYT, for example, reads:
Clinton and Obama Top U.S. Poll on Most Admired People
This news should be shouted out, not pushed to the side to make room for runners up, one worthy, one not.

Seems ol’ Donnie’s gettin’ a mite ahead o’ hisself. Next he will be measuring the curtains and hiring people to put up his name in massive flashing letters that can be seen all over the Mall even in daylight over the White House. Kinda like this:
Ol’ Donnie has the tacky market cornered.
It reminds me of the front-page headline of the Post–New York Post, one of those parodies like Not the New York Times. The big story in the Post–New York Post was that a nuclear attack had obliterated New York City: “KABOOM! It’s Armageddon — Michael Jackson, 8 million others killed.”
