WASHINGTON (Newsmax) – Fifty-five percent of likely voters believe presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden is in the early stages of dementia, according to a Zogby poll released Wednesday.

President Donald Trump has consistently ridiculed Biden over his verbal gaffes and memory lapses and portrayed him as an old man who would be committed to a retirement home if he were to be elected.
“They are going to put him in a home and other people are going to be running the country,” Trump said in early March during a rally in Charlotte.
“Sleepy Joe,” Trump added, “he doesn’t even know where he is or what he’s doing or what office he’s running for. Honestly, I don’t think he knows what office he’s running for.”
Biden’s age, 77, has been a consistent source of discussion during the 2020 campaign.
The Zogby poll found majorities of Republicans and independents thought Biden had early onset dementia, while nearly a third of Democrats thought this was the case.
The voters most likely to believe Biden was having cognitive issues were staunch Trump supporters; weekly Walmart Shoppers (64% more likely/36% less likely), weekly Amazon shoppers (67% more likely/34% less likely), and union voters (71% more likely/29% less likely).
I firmly believe that the Dems want Biden to be a “Placeholder President”. The plan is for him to pick far lefty as a VP, and then step down shortly after inauguration (citing to health issues), thus giving the far lefties the president they really want.
Are we citing NewsMax now? Does someone have a real cite?
I think that the other 45 percent in the poll, have dementia already!!!!
The other 45% believe that he is past the beginning stages
It is the old Mc Carthy strategy even if false if repeatedly stated IT WILL BE BELIEVED , the Nazis used this strategy and so did McCarthty
I think there is a strong possibility that he has suffered a small stroke or has a brain tumor, and I’m not saying this to be mean. I’m genuinely concerned about his health. We all know what happened after John McCain started speaking incoherently.
It’s a stat of people’s opinions. It’s a valid study and it’s not like Biden hasn’t earned it. He does display some troubling gaps from time to time and he wants to be president.
Unfortunately, I think trump’s mental faculties have also been compromised so fo me, neither choice is exactly top shelf.
jeb is a BIG WIMP so IS BIDEN !!!!!. … They are both NATURAL LOSRES !!!!!! TRUMP TRUMPS ALL THOSE CRAZY FREAKISH WIMPISH SWAMPY NATURAL BORN DEMOCRATIC LOSERS !!!!! TRUMP 2020 !!!!TRUMP 2024!!!!!!!! TRUMP 2028 !!!!!!!!!! TRUMP FOREVER !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So, even with Biden deliberately hiding in his basement and saying as little as practically possible about anything, and 99% of that being carefully scripted, 55% still realize he has dementia. That’s good news for the country at large.
