Polls show increasing concerns about Trump's mental acuity

President Donald Trump won the 2024 presidential race after his initial opponent, then-President Joe Biden, withdrew over worries about his age and mental sharpness.

But a year-plus into Trump’s four-year term, polls suggest the American people aren’t just increasingly unhappy with his job performance; they’re increasingly concerned about his mental capacity as well.

-snip-

Perhaps the most striking poll came Tuesday, ahead of Trump’s first State of the Union address of his second term, which beat his own record for the longest speech to Congress.

The Reuters-Ipsos poll showed 61% of Americans agreed that Trump has “become erratic with age.” Even 30% of Republicans agreed with that sentiment.

He looked pretty healthy delivering the shambles of the union address. And he broke his own and the all time record for length. Call me crazy but he has stamina, is able to stand for long periods and can read a teleprompter. I’m sick of all the health reports showing concern. We are stuck with him until the congress grows a spine in response to the horrifying details dripping from this administration and action is taken. Code red has been flashing for a long time.
