Will the United States ever again have a President as popular as Obama?

The U,S. population has been increasing for some time. Nevertheless, Obama in both 2008 and 2012 won more votes than Trump did in 2016:

Bush 2004: 62,040,610

Obama 2008: 69,498,516

Obama 2012: 65,915,795

Trump 2016: 62,984,828 (Clinton: 65,853,514)

Trump 2020: 74,216,154 (Biden: 81,268,924)

Upon his completion of his two terms:
Upon his completion of his one term:
we get it already, your fantasy is to give Odummy oral

You are are upset that President Obama was elected in 2008 with 52.9% of the popular vote, and in 2012 with 50.5%, and completed his two terms with 60% approval, whereas your Trump received only 46.1% of the popular vote in 2016, 2.1% less than his opponent, and completed his one term with 34% approval but, no matter how pissy that makes you, those are the documented, objective numbers.
 
even though I hate idealists like Obama
Idealists like Obama? What is your definition of "ideal"? Transforming America into a racially divided, politically divided mess? Permanently screwing up America's health care? Creating the immigration migration with his DACA decrees? Empowering and nuclearizing Iran?
 
Nope, Trump had more votes than Obama. Trump wins.
You seem confused. Trump did not run against Obama.

Trump ran against President Biden in 2020.

Biden received 7,052,770 more votes in the largest winning popular vote margin since Obama's victory in 2008 by 9, 548,831 votes.

Who cares? Why would he need to run against Obama? You arent making any sense.
 
President Obama was elected in 2008 with 52.9% of the popular vote, and in 2012 with 50.5%, joining FDR, Eisenhower, and Reagan as the only POTUSs twice elected with over 50% of the popular vote. He completed his two terms with 60% approval.

He was succeeded by Trump who received 46.1% of the popular vote, 2.1% less than his opponent. He completed his one term with 34% approval, his lowest rating of four years of relentlessly negative assessments.

Biden won in 2020 with 51.3% of the popular vote, maintaining positive approval numbers for his first seven months in office, but then falling to his current 42.2%, with no surge in the offing.

Given the divisive, hyper-partisan nature of American politics today, and the refusal to accept the will of the People by a sizable faction of losers, do you think that the U.S. can ever again elect a President who commands the respect of most Americans?
The captain of the Titanic was also popular and achieved the same result. Stop looking at popularity and start looking at results, then America would stop electing the useless, like Obama

I know you don't like it, but try to grasp the empirical reality.

President Obama was elected in 2008 with 52.9% of the popular vote, and in 2012 with 50.5%, and completed his two terms with 60% approval, whereas your Trump received only 46.1% of the popular vote in 2016, 2.1% less than his opponent, and completed his one term with 34% approval.

The United States shall not have a president as popular as Obama in the foreseeable future.

Obama isnt half as revered as Reagan and he never will be. He didnt do anything historic, other than being the first black pres. Obama doesnt have a "tear down this wall" moment that will etch his name in history.
