Majority Of Voters Say Both Biden And Trump Are Mentally Unfit To Serve Second Term

Posted February 21, 2024 by with 11 comments

President Joe Biden holds a 4-point lead over former President Donald Trump, according to a new Quinnipiac poll of 1,421 registered voters over landlines and cell phones last week, but when it comes to “mental fitness,” a majority of voters say both men aren’t qualified to be president:

In a hypothetical 2024 general election presidential matchup, President Joe Biden holds a small lead over former President Donald Trump with 49 percent of registered voters supporting Biden and 45 percent supporting Trump, according to a Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pea-ack) University national poll of registered voters released today.

In today’s poll, Democrats support Biden (93 – 4 percent), while Republicans support Trump (91 – 7 percent). Independents are divided, with 44 percent supporting Biden and 42 percent supporting Trump.

Voters 67 – 31 percent think that President Joe Biden is too old to effectively serve another 4-year term as president, compared to 68 – 28 percent in Quinnipiac University’s September 2023 poll.

Voters 57 – 41 percent think that Donald Trump is not too old to effectively serve another 4-year term as president, compared to 63 – 34 percent in September.

Voters were asked whether Biden and Trump have the physical fitness and the mental fitness to serve a second presidential term.

Physical fitness: Biden: 35 percent say yes, 62 percent say no; Trump: 60 percent say yes, 37 percent say no.

Mental fitness: Biden: 34 percent say yes, 64 percent say no; Trump: 48 percent say yes, 51 percent say no.

It is nothing short of insanity that 60% of people can look at the tangerine hog, slathered in make-up while dripping with sweat and slurring his words, and think he’s “physically fit.” Then again, when you look at the physical fitness of most Trump voters, I guess Trump is in about the same (or better!) shape as them, so perhaps their opinion isn’t insane, but rather a reflection of what they perceive to be “fit,” based on their perceptions of themselves. Good god, maybe they see themselves in him.

Regardless, I will never be able to wrap my head around this: A majority of voters say both Trump and Biden are mentally unfit to serve a second term, and yet, at the same time, the same majority of voters from both respective parties say they will vote for Trump and Biden! Even though they admit both men are senile. Make it make sense, because I’m losing my fucking mind.
