Joe Biden Says He Has ‘No Idea’ Why Americans Would Think He’s Mentally Unfit

Joe Biden discredited recent polls which showed that many Americans thought he wasn’t mentally fit.

An October poll by Politico/Morning Consult revealed that 48% believed Biden was mentally unfit while 46% thought he was mentally fit.

An even more recent poll this week revealed a significant change in these numbers with 49% believing Biden to be mentally fit and 40% disagreeing.

During a White House Press Conference, the President made these remarks.

Biden: ‘You mean, I can still stand?  It’s amazing. I can do pushups’

James Rosen, Newsmax reporter, cited a Morning Consult poll in which just 40 percent believe Biden to be mentally healthy.

A mere 37 percent say Biden is in good health. Only 43% think the president’s health is good.

Rosen asked:

I’d like to raise a delicate subject, but with utmost respect for your life accomplishments and the high office you hold. Politico Morning Consult released a poll this morning that found 49% of voters disapproved with Joe Biden’s statement about being mentally healthy. A majority of Democrats who responded strongly affirmed that statement.”

“I’ll let you all make the judgment whether they’re correct,” Biden said.

Rosen followed up, asking Biden why he believes a majority of Americans would believe he is not mentally fit: “Why do you suppose such large segments of the American electorate have come to harbor such profound concerns about your cognitive fitness?”

Biden responded, “I have no idea.”

Mentally Fit… By The Numbers

According to the Politico poll, some people are experiencing alarming numbers. 

Only 43% of Democrats strongly believe that Biden is mentally healthy. This number drops to 7% among Republicans. 

Interesting fact: Only 43% of voters who voted in Biden for 2020 strongly agreed that he was mentally fit. However, 48% who voted in Hillary Clinton for 2016 strongly agreed.

Only 31% of black Americans strongly agree. 

That number is only 22% for Christians. Biden’s 23% is the average for employees of government agencies.
