As the days and months continue to tick by and the 2024 presidential election draws closer and closer, an unenviable constant remains for embattled President Joe Biden:
Virtually every major polling organization continues to confirm a myriad of voter concerns that could stick a fork in the 81-year-old, cognitively declining president. From the out-of-control illegal alien invasion to the disastrous effects of Bidenomics on tens of millions of hardworking Americans who struggle to make ends meet to a growing concern among likely voters that if Biden wins in November, he'll die during his second term, leaving America with the once unthinkable: Kamala Harris as the president of the United States, the electorate isn't happy about Joe.
Twilight Zone? Damn close.
According to a new poll conducted exclusively for Daily Mail, only 38 percent of likely voters believe Biden would be alive at the end of another four-year term — again, making the unthinkable a reality, which 36 percent of survey respondents said they believe will happen.
While the survey found Biden's age is a major concern for a majority of voters, former President Donald Trump is only four years younger than Biden, yet the survey found that voters have far fewer doubts about the 77-year-old.
James Johnson, cofounder of J.L. Partners, which conducted the poll, put it bluntly:
Voters think Biden is too old, and they are not changing their minds. The difficulty for Biden is that views of him are not shaped through events such as his State of the Union address — which people who had seen it felt was fiery — but through consumption of the hundreds of viral social media clips of Biden stumbling and slurring.
That solid perception that he is too old feeds through to a sense he is too weak, and it is a major problem for him going into November. Frankly, they do not think he is up to the job — and that makes his re-election a much harder task.
Is there any doubt that the cognitive capacity of the guy on the left is less than that of the guy on the right?
Look, I'm not among those who support everything Donald says, writes, or does, but here's the thing: When I vote in November I will neither be voting for a moral leader nor a saint. Rather, nominations to the Supreme Court and protecting the southern (and now, northern) border from the continuing legal alien invasion will stand at the top of why I'll vote as I voted in 2016 and 2020.
Unsurprisingly — and justifiably so — Trump has repeatedly blistered Biden as unfit for office because of his age and obvious cognitive decline, including this gem — which Trump said at a Georgia rally in mid-March:
Everything Joe Biden touches turns to sh*t.
Later in the speech, Trump mocked Biden's stutter.
A separate DailyMail–J.L. Partners poll of 1,000 likely voters found that Trump has maintained the four-point lead he has held over Biden since December.
