Bad News for Sleepy Joe: Trump is Crushing Biden on This Vital Metric – By Andrew Stiles (Free Beacon) / Jan 15, 2024
American voters aren’t blind
On perhaps the most crucial question of the 2024 election, former president Donald Trump is beating President Joe Biden by nearly 30 points, according to an ABC News poll released over the weekend.
Just 28 percent of Americans said Biden, 81, was in “good enough physical health to effectively serve as president,” the poll found, compared with 57 percent who said the same about Trump. Poll respondents were similarly skeptical that Biden had “the mental sharpness it takes to effectively serve as president,” with just 28 percent answering in the affirmative, compared with 47 percent who expressed confidence in Trump’s cognitive health.
That’s very bad news for Biden, who is sometimes referred to as “Sleepy Joe.” It’s no wonder that, according to the poll, just 33 percent of Americans approve of the president’s job performance, which is several points worse than Trump’s lowest approval rating as president, and the worst of any president since George W. Bush in 2008. Biden’s approval rating among black and Hispanic adults is down double-digits compared with his historical averages with those groups.
