The One Biden Poll That's Bound to Drive Dems Mad

It’s not something you haven’t heard before regarding Joe Biden's health, but the polling remains brutal. With the 2024 Republican primary essentially over since Nikki Haley has no path to the nomination and Ron DeSantis dropped out, the focus is now solely on Trump and Biden, which will not be good. Trump will be the target of the media, whereas Biden’s age, health, and stamina will be front and center. And there’s polling on the latter that will surely drive liberal America up the wall. 

A new Reuters poll showed that 70 percent of Americans don’t want him to run again, with 74 percent thinking he’s too old. The president recently botched a photo opportunity with unionized construction workers in Wisconsin as he wore his hard hat backward. He’s screaming sentence fragments, heavily insinuating that his son, Beau, died in Normandy and is buried outside of Paris, and can’t be a smooth operator on the stump. 

It harkens back to Bill Maher’s commentary last fall, where he said Biden is at risk of becoming “Ruth Bader Biden”: someone who couldn’t put his ego aside, get out of the way, and prevent political disaster. The late justice wouldn’t retire under former President Barack Obama, which would have allowed the liberal wing to remain strong with a younger replacement. Instead, she remained, died under Trump, and now conservative Amy Coney Barrett occupies her seat. A critical seat that makes up the foundation of the more progressive faction of the court is gone. It’s one of the many reasons why liberal America flipped out. 

Now, we all know what the left is going to say: Trump will be 78 in 2024. Yes, and he looks remarkably better than the creepy grandpa from Delaware. Watch Trump on the stump and then Biden; the difference is night and day. Trump remains energetic, can get to the point, and finish his sentences without slurring. As Maher noted, Trump is like Kiss; he may be old, but he puts on the face paint, wig and looks the same as he did in 1978. Americans agree, and it circles back to the liberal's doomed strategy of “how can you support this guy” with Trump, which has been ineffective since the first rumblings of his 2024 candidacy emerged many months ago. 

The president already enters and exits Air Force One through a shorter set of stairs from the belly of the aircraft. After falling at an Air Force Academy commencement last year, the ripple effect wasn’t as severe, though any new incidents will have new relevance. Biden can’t have these episodes anymore, and the more he stays in the spotlight, the greater the risk of a Senator Mitch McConnell-like brain freeze moment. 

Welcome to the 2024 election.
