President Trump more popular among Republicans than Abraham Lincoln, poll shows

President Trump is more popular among Republicans than former President Abraham Lincoln, a new poll has revealed.

According to a new Economist/YouGov survey published this week, 53 percent of respondents, who identify as Republicans, chose Trump as the superior president over Lincoln.

President Lincoln, who helped abolish slavery and steer America through the Civil War era, has always been celebrated as one of America’s greatest leaders.

Foxnews.com reports: Lincoln, however, was the preferred Republican president among Democrats (94 percent), independents (78 percent), and the pool of all respondents (75 percent). Lincoln was also tops among men, women and all other categories – except Republicans.

There were other mixed results for Trump in a comparison against Ronald Reagan, according to the Washington Times.

In one section of the poll, Republicans were asked to rank Republican presidents on a scale of 1 to 8, with 1 being “best” and 8 being “worst.” Trump was considered the best by 32 percent of Republican respondents, followed by Lincoln (29 percent) and Reagan (27 percent).

But when asked directly whether Trump or Reagan was the better president, 41 percent of Republican respondents said Trump while 59 percent said Reagan.

  1. Whites in America must stop supporting Trump, him & the American government are keeping friendly relations with the racist anc government in South Africa.
    The anc are threatening whites, their land & businesses and the American government are aiding the corrupt anc regime.

    • This situation makes me physically ill. what a betrayal on the White people worldwide, especially SA. When i hear this “Putin and/or Trump worship”, it shows most people are like lame cattle.

      If we have a BRICS economic order, then where is Putin as a Great White Hope for the people under his wing in SA, pathetic; maybe it was fake news but supposedly it was said “Come to Russia and we will give whites land to farm”

      I have got down votes, “cry me a river” and banned from making comments elsewhere for my statement “Trump has too many Sacred Cows and they are all non-white” Undecided for 2020, will probably write in Augustus Invictus
