Biden: 6 in 10 US adults doubt his mental capability
==========
A poll conducted by The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research shows that approximately 6 in 10 US adults doubt President Joe Biden's mental capability to serve effectively. This is a slight increase from January 2022, when about half of those polled expressed similar concerns. The poll also reveals that nearly 6 in 10 Americans lack confidence in the mental capability of former President Donald Trump. Going into his State of the Union address, Biden's approval rating is at 38%, with 61% disapproving of his job performance. Democrats are more likely to approve of Biden's performance (74%) compared to independents (20%) and Republicans (6%). However, there is broad discontent with how Biden is handling various issues, including the economy, immigration, and foreign policy. The poll also indicates that 57% of Americans believe the national economy is worse off than before Biden took office. The survey shows that one-third of Democrats are not confident in Biden's mental capability, while independents are much more likely to lack confidence in his mental abilities compared to Trump's. Both Democrats and Republicans agree that the other party's likely nominee is not mentally up to the task. Biden's age and the risk of cognitive decline are major concerns for many voters. The article includes quotes from respondents who express doubts about both Biden and Trump's mental capabilities. Biden has tried to deflect concerns by joking about his age and taking jabs at Trump's gaffes, but his age remains a liability that overshadows his policy achievements. The article concludes by mentioning that due to the ages of both candidates, some voters plan to focus on Vice President Kamala Harris and Trump's potential running mate.
