Is there a person in politics that's respected by most conservatives and liberals?

I got asked this during lunch and honestly couldn't come up with anyone. I'm even thinking into celebrities and sports figures and it's bothering me.

Who would y'all say is the most universally liked and respected person by both democrats and republicans?

Yeah I guess he's pretty well liked. Is there anyone that's dabbled in politics that's still liked? I feel like it's impossible nowadays to do that and still have both sides like you.

The Rock has talked about running as a Republican.

Politics naturally divides and turns people against a person. That's why it is one of the big three you don't talk about in social settings.

Tulsi?

People on here dislike her economic policies, but agree with her foreign policy and respect her willingness to call out the worst elements of her own party.

Democrats have moved so far to the left it’s not possible anymore.

Shameless self-promotion.

Daddy Bush was as universally liked as a politician can realistically be in this era towards the end of his life.

Dershowitz is/was reasonably well respected by most.

Jimmy Carter was a shitty president but most acknowledge the good he’s done for humanity since leaving office

Colin Powell is probably on the list

There’s not too many though

Probably Robert Gates while he was Secretary of Defense.

Not Marianne Williamson after that joke of a speech she gave...

2020 presidential candidate Marianne Williamson was speaking at an event last week when she called on all the white Americans in the room to face the black Americans in the room and repeat a statement she had written apologizing for being white.

If anyone is involved in politics they to be neither liked nor respected. Politics is about controlling and manipulating to advance some kind of agenda other than the free will of the populace. Neither controlling nor manipulating is a desirable trait/condition.
