Democrats are joining with Republicans worried about President JoeBiden’s mental capacity in calling for a brain test of the chief executive.
The latest Rasmussen Reports survey on the issue said that 43% of Democrats want Biden to take a cognitive test similar to the one former President Donald Trump took and passed in office. Some 47% of Democrats do not feel it’s necessary.
While 73% of Democrats believe that Biden is up to the job, 39% have seen a “mental decline” in the president since he took office. Overall, the numbers in the new survey revealed continued national concern about Biden, the nation’s oldest president, especially among independent voters who helped to carry Biden to victory over Trump in 2020.
Altogether, 66% of voters want Biden tested, 56% are not confident he’s up for the job, and 63% have seen a mental decline and forgetfulness in Biden.The survey follows another from Rasmussen in which voters declared Biden as one of the worst presidents.
