This Post-Debate Poll Speaks for Itself
Townhall ^ | 6/30/2024 | Sarah Arnold

For months the American people have expressed doubts that President Joe Biden has what it takes to serve in office for the next four years.

His chaotic debate performance confirmed those doubts.

Now, once die-hard Biden supporters are forced to reevaluate their decision to vote for the 81-year-old president.

Despite Biden claiming his debate performance won over more undecided voters than former President Donald, polls tell a different story.

According to a JL Partners poll, nearly 70 percent of Independent voters want Biden to drop out of the 2024 race, while only while 32 percent of Democrats disagree.

Biden’s debate performance worked in former President Donald Trump’s favor, with 44 percent of independents said they plan to vote for Trump— up four points after the debate.

Meanwhile, Biden’s support fell a massive 28 percentage points since before the debate. Now, only 24 percent of voters say they plan to vote for him in November.

On the contrary, only 41 percent of voters said Biden should have dropped out of the race in 2020.

A CBS News poll found that three-quarters of the electorate have doubts on Biden’s ability to serve another four years in office.

Post- debate, 72 percent of voters believe Biden does not have the mental and cognitive health to serve as president. A sharp contrast from earlier this month when 65 percent said the same thing about him.

In February, 63 percent of voters suggested the president should not run again. However, today, that number has increased with 72 percent saying the same thing.

Despite this, a Biden campaign official confirmed that the president will not drop out of the race and he will participate in the second presidential debate against Trump in September.

“Trump, by contrast, finds a wide view among Republicans that he should be running,” the outlet noted. “That comes as voters widely believe that in the debate, Trump presented his ideas more clearly, appeared more presidential, inspired more confidence, explained his policies better and —quite simply — won the debate.”

During the debate, 47 percent of voters believed Trump presented his ideas more clearly than the 21 percent who believed Biden did.

Forty-six percent said Trump appeared more presidential than Biden, and 43 percent said the 45th president explained his policies and plans better. On the contrary, only 35 percent said the same about Biden.

And what about the drug issue? Did Biden not have his drug cocktail that night? Because the next day in North Carolina we saw feisty angry shouting Joe again.

My prediction - Dominion machines begin overheating around 11pm.

I’ve been wondering about that drug cocktail. Either they have used it so often it is no longer effective, or there is some delay. The next day at North Carolina he was high as a kite. They may have got the mix wrong.

I think Jill will keep him jacked up way too often, it may push him over the cliff.

No links to any of the stated data.

The author cannot be believed because of it.

Only horse race polls matter post debate. If we don’t hear of any tomorrow, something is amiss.

What time of day was the rally after the debate? I think that is the key.

Right now I believe that the plan is to take both houses of Congress, dispose of whoever is elected president and vice president by impeachment or 25th amdmt, and install Jefferts.

This poll is of a two man race. It doesn't take into consideration Cornel West, Jill Stein and Robert Kennedy Jr.

************************************************************

AS I’ve said many times on FR over the past 15-20 years on FR, 25% of Americans supported the King against Washington and his patriot army back in the 1770’s. More Americans died fighting each other than the British in the Revoloutionary War.

So, my point AGAIN is that America has ALWAYS had a hardcore, diehard, committed bunch of lefties. And it’s always no less than 25% (approximately).

Months? It's been years!

"Despite Biden claiming his debate performance won over more undecided voters than former President Donald"

That might make sense if his polls were cheap fakes from the wokey league fabricated before the debate.

My guess is the Dems are learning there is a difference between generic and brand amphetamines

It is important to note that no matter what this was going to be a close election, but also that Trump has been consistently ahead since last September by a few points nationally and more important up big in enough swing states to win since then also.

Even a move of a couple of points towards Trump would shift the odds of Trump winning from 70-80% to near 100%. Because of the advantage Republicans have in the electoral college Biden would need to WIN by more than three points.

A 3am glitch and voila a changed total!
Polls mean zilch.
This is nothing that the “Daily Two Minute Trump Hate” won’t fix!
Who told Biden he didn’t lose any servicemen in combat during his term? I’d fire that bastard. Joe is too far gone to be held responsible for anything he says, like Hur says he is.

Biden is a sundowner. His mind shuts down after the 4 pm early bird special. The reason he performed better in Raleigh the day after the debate was that he had a teleprompter, a friendly crowd for 15 minutes and it was held at 10AM just after he had his Jello

The unmerciful way Dems went after Reagan in 1980, let alone 1984, endlessly characterizing him as feeble and doddering, versus how supportive and overly generous to the much older and obviously-treasonous Biden shows how self-serving and engrained the Left’s—particularly among the media— destructive, two-tiered thinking and combativeness have been for long time.

Reagan was only 73 on his 2nd inauguration and would ultimately live almost another 20 years, to become 93. By contrast, all manner of excuse for Biden’s clear, advanced dementia has been the undying, unified media message, even though if he were re-elected, he would be 82 years old at his inauguration.

The media have long driven the Left’s agenda against the interests of WeThePeople!
