suck it, trump #2
Among women, Hillary Clinton was the most admired for the 15th year in a row, and the 21st time overall. Since 1993, her first year as First Lady, she has only lost out on the honor three times: in 1995 and 1996, to Mother Teresa, and in 2001, to then-First Lady Laura Bush.
Current First Lady Michelle Obama came in second among women, while Donald Trump came in second among men (15% of respondents mentioned him, compared with the 22% who mentioned Obama and the 12% who picked Clinton). Shortly after the news broke, some have pointed out, Trump tweeted critical remarks about President Obama.
The most admired men and women in Gallups poll tend to be the sitting or incoming presidents and first ladies. Trumps numbers are below then-President-elect Obamas 32 percent support in 2008, but above then-President-elect George W. Bushs 5% support in 2000. Its also three times the support he received in 2015.
