Frankly, they could have been talking about the chicken guy or the rookie QB in Cleveland....and both would also be believable as idols among their dumbarse respondents.

Well given how stupid some people are, some thought it was Deon, some thought it was Colonel Sanders and some thought it was Barry Sanders they voted for.

Maybe Colonel Sanders would be second, not Bernie.

Except for idealistic college aged kids, I’ve never heard any serious person declare admiration for Moscow Bernie.

I am all for bashing cnn and esp Dana Bash, but this is not fake news.

Gallup poll

They asked opinions on:
Pope
Sanders
Zelensky
Musk
Trump
AOC
Macron
Rubio
RFK
Newsome
Vance
Biden
Hegseth

They asked 1000 adults, 80% cellphone and 20% landline.

Democrats have themselves a radical socialist problem. That brutal ideology is commonplace in their party.

That would make more sense and CNN seems capable on confusing the two.

The guy hasn’t worked hard a day in his life and has become a millionaire by convincing poor people that millionaires are evil and the cause of their struggles

Steve Irwin dead is more popular than the Pope and Sanders combined.

You’re missing my point, which was not the validity of the poll.
The poll was referenced, and every poster was like “lol. Fake news”.
My point is that it isn’t fake news.
