Rasmussen Reports Poll: 20% of Democrats ‘think Biden has dementia,’ 38% among all voters
Washington Examiner ^ | 06/30/2020 | Paul Bedard

Joe Biden’s gaffes and mumblings are catching up to him with his own base of voters, with one-fifth believing he has dementia, according to a new survey.

Rasmussen Reports revealed in new data shared with Secrets that 20% of Democrats believe he suffers from the debilitating disease. Many more Republicans, 66%, agree.

Overall, 38% believe Biden has dementia, likely driven by his misstatements during speeches and Zoom events.

Seniors are the age group most likely to think Biden is suffering from dementia, said the Rasmussen analysis.

The report followed a Zogby poll that found 55% believe that the 77-year-old Democrat and former vice president is in the early stages of dementia. “Right now voters have questions concerning Biden's mental health and stamina,” said the Zogby analysis.

Rasmussen took the question further, asking if likely voters believed Biden already had dementia, although it did not define the condition.

It found that voters want the vice president to address the concerns. “Sixty-one percent of all voters believe it is important for Biden to address the dementia issue publicly, with 41% who say it is ‘Very Important,’” said Rasmussen.

Just last week, Biden, who would be 78 on Inauguration Day, said that 120 million Americans had died from COVID-19 before he corrected himself. “Now we have over 120 million dead from COVID, I mean, 120,000 dead from COVID. And you have so many, now we’re past 2 million, I mean, and we’re talking about it like it’s over. I mean, it’s over. My God,” he said.

The gaffes are being collected by the GOP, which has created the hashtag #BarelyThereBiden on Twitter.

RE: As long as Biden picks a VP they’re happy with, Democrats won’t care if he’s comatose (in fact, many of them might prefer a VP Kamala Harris or something equally repulsive calling the shots).

You’re also going to get AOC, Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib in the cabinet.

Seniors most likely to see him as demented. They know. When you start to lose your fastball you can see it when it happens to others.

“20% Of Democrats Think Biden Has Dementia”

fortunately, however, biden is elevendy-three percent ahead in the polls despite the voters knowing that he’s demented ... in fact, biden is SO far ahead that President Trump is almost certain to drop out of the race any day now ... at least that’s what the fake stream enemedia keeps telling everyone ...

Problem for voters is that, somebody with dementia is not as dangerous as somebody that would rule as a liberal, where liberalism is a far more dangerous disease than dementia.

They are voting for a person who has yet to be named on the ticket and others are voting against the incumbent. Joe Biden is the Useful Idiot. Very few admire Joe Biden. More people liked Hillary Clinton than Biden and that is saying something.

It should be: 20% of Democrats admit that they ‘think Biden has dementia.’ In reality, the number 20% is low, not high.

80% of Democrats get their “news” from the MSM or don’t watch the news at all.

A rather large gap between Zogby and Rasmussen on this question. Could the phrasing of the question have caused the difference?

...it is generally the case that men are readier to call rogues clever than simpletons honest,
   and are as ashamed of being the second as they are proud of being the first.

The trouble is, I went back and watched his debate against Ryan in 2012 - he rambled, made countless false claims, factual errors and even sounded incoherent at times. I don’t like Ryan, but he actually did quite well in my opinion.

Yet, the fake news press still scored it as a big win for Biden.

Fast forward to the recent primary debates - Biden’s dementia was on full display for all to see. Yet, here he is, the Democrat nominee.

Anyone hoping Biden’s mental incapacity will make him an easy target for Trump during the debates better think again: the fake news media will simply spin it that he won.

No, I still think Trump will win - but not because of Joe Biden’s dementia - he will win because the Democrat party has lost its way - it is run by left wing radicals and nut cases.

Did you take note of the extreme losers on the stage with him? Sanders the commie kook, Warren the nutzo arm waver, Spartacus, Kamala stoned Harris, Some wacko environmentalist billionaire, then another who outlaws large sodas, Beto the skate boarder?

This is just David Axelrods new challenge.

He got an America hating Marxist Muslim elected in 2012, and now his big challenge is to get a mentally disabled idiot in the office.

My question is who changes Joe’s nappies? Is it male or female or mixed?
