Clearly the 'admiration' for Trump....I call it name recognition more so than admiration....did not carry over to the vote for president. 7M more people 'admired' Biden than Trump.

The turnout % also suggests NO admiration for Trump from 81M voters, rather very, very, strong motivation to show the Big Orange Dufus the door.

The Popular Vote

Biden won 81,283,098 votes, or 51.3 percent of the votes cast. He is the first U.S. presidential candidate to have won more than 80 million votes. Trump won 74,222,957 votes, or 46.8 percent of the votes cast. That’s more votes than any other presidential candidate has ever won, with the exception of Biden.

More than 159 million Americans voted in 2020: 159,633,396 to be exact. That’s the largest total voter turnout in U.S. history and the first time more than 140 million people voted.

Voter turnout in 2020 was the highest in 120 years when measured as a percentage of the voting-eligible population: 66.7 percent. You have to go back all the way to 1900 to find a higher percentage turnout (73.7 percent). The election of 1876 holds the record for highest turnout: 82.6 percent. That, of course, was also one of America’s most controversial and consequential elections—and not in a good way.

Name recognition. 60 of 74 won by incumbent presidents. blackhawks nailed it.

Also Dems split vote while Trump won because Republicans remained loyal to their master.

And that

"The poll was conducted by telephone from December 1-17 among a random sample
of 1,018 adults. It has a margin of error of plus or minus 4 percentage points.

Trump's 18% - 15%, 3% win margin is inside the margin of error of the poll ..

That point is magnified in the election result as pointed out by blackhawks' ..

And how does Melania deserve to be there, even as third.
