This is a topic that doesn’t require a positive or negative opinion about Trump — just a simple attempt at discussing his popularity.

I feel Trump is the most well known and discussed living person to ever exist...by far. Some may say what about Hitler? Well the world population was around 3 billion during Hitler’s time. AND there was no internet.

I don’t know that there is any way to quantify the amount of TV/radio news coverage, forum posts, comment section discussions, newspaper articles, magazine articles, etc, etc. Does Google have a number for the amount of time the name Trump has been typed on the internet?

He is literally the most famous person in the history of humanity.

No, there isc no way to quantify this. But I cannot see him as "the most famous oerson in the hitory of humanity." I don't know who that might be, but it isn't Trump. Is Trump more "famous" than Jesus Christ? That's one I'd nominate. There are a lot of people more famous on a worldwide basis than Trump, even on a national basis.

Sorry, that person would be Jesus Christ.

I am sure he is for a small subset of people. Mostly American, mostly angry.

Most of the Trump talk is done by those that are waiting for the TDS vaccine. And least here on CD.

I don't know about the historical context, but the media sure seems to be stumbling around trying to fill their 24/7 "news" quota with something besides Trump.

Trump provided them with an "outrage of the day." Now, since their drumbeat anti-Trump narrative has been gutted, the resulting vacuum makes their blatant bias that much more noticeable. OTOH, Fox still has their 'Dem. outrage of the day' working, but need someone else to defend.

There is a 2000+ year history of churches, theologians, schools and universities, laypeople and so forth all discussing Jesus Christ and His ministry and divinity.

Trump was actively involved in politics for roughly 6 years.

And the world population during Jesus’ human life is irrelevant to your original question.

No , Trump would say it was Jesus, fact is Trump said that already many times.. unlike John Lennon who said the Beatles were more popular than Jesus.

There's some on this forum, who just won't let him go. They are Liberals, who feel the need to Chit, Eat and Dream of him daily.

Just look at the Trump threads, you'll see who they are.

They seem very bitter in their lives. Sad and scary really.

Being angry is not a good way of life. Look at the Rioters, They are scary bad. I bet some of them post on here. Blue hair, chit smeared on their face. Ick.
