The majority of American voters believe that Democratic President Joe Biden is not in the mental state that would allow him to take on and complete a second term, but this is also true of Donald Trump's Republican opponent and predecessor, indicates a Quinnipiac University poll released Wednesday.
The 64% of the sample thought that Mr. Biden, 81, is not fit to take on a second term because of his mental state rather a bad omen for the occupant of the White House, whose age was already his main handicap.
51%, however, think the same about Mr. Trump, 77according to a New York Daily News report relayed by the German Agency.
President Biden, whose mental clarity has been in the media lately, especially after the release of special counsel Robert Hurr's report on the handling of classified documents, describing him as a “nice old gentleman with good intentions but a bad memory,” he rejects criticism of this nature, stating that his memory is fine. There is no indication that he intends to withdraw from the race.
Mr Trump, whose mental health has also been commented on, is widely expected to secure the Republican nomination and be their presidential candidate in the November 5 election. In most polls so far, she is reportedly ahead in voting intentions over Mr. Biden.
The Quinnipiac University poll, however, has Joe Biden leading by 4 points in a theoretical runoff with Mr. Trump.
Another poll, by the YouGov institute for The Economist magazine, instead has Mr Trump ahead by one percentage point.
However, with the election some 250 days away, no predictions can be made yet.
